I just hope they don’t start chucking spears around when I refuse to apologise.
I’m sure the b*stards spat in my food. Still ate it, mind. I just pretended it was watery apple sauce.
:-… :-… :-… :-…
12 March, 2007 at 9:30 am #263215:lol: :lol: :lol: Just be glad I said spit. I was originally going to say something else. It’s kinda like spitting… Same kinda colour…
Actually, it resembles apple sauce a lot better than spit.
Shall I stop there? :lol:

Emma- I disagreed with your view of what was behind this march NOT with the view that we should not be apologising. We SHOULD be discussing it, we SHOULD be remembering it, we SHOULD be recognsing slavery as an evil act of human subjugation, but we SHOULD NOT be apologising for something which occurred almost 200 years ago.
Exactly what SHOULD we be discussing and remembering?
The more we disscuss and remember, the more were made to feel guilty to appologetic status.
We know it existed, we dont want it to happen again, thats enough.
12 March, 2007 at 2:10 pm #263219Stop getting so angry about it then. Or you’re just losing to the apologists.
Do what I do. Take the p!ss. Not give a damn. If you get angry, then the liberal communist willy-players win.
12 March, 2007 at 2:30 pm #263220You can direct anger in a sensible fashion. I do it politically.
12 March, 2007 at 2:55 pm #263221Meh. I choose not to bite to commies.
14 March, 2007 at 1:24 pm #263222I don’t think the issue here is apologizing its like slayer says its about remembering. From what i seen on news and political programs black people are not asking for every English person to say sorry. Just for it to be highlighted – slavery in the past and how wrong it was.
I love living in London and having friends of all different colours and backgrounds. Its something to be celebrated. But sadly i think there are some people who still wish we was 200 years in the past and everyone non white is below them.. Is like damn there are bigger issues then trying to rain on the parade of black people recognizing there past.
it would be nice for this country to have acknowledgment of what happened said by the prime-minster (which has prob all ready been done) But that’s my views :)
14 March, 2007 at 2:07 pm #263223But why should the Prime Minister alone be asked to apologise for slavery …. unless it is to grab some cheap and sensational publicity.
No I think that every man, woman and yes even child in the entire UK should immediatly apologise for slavery. They are all responsible for it – especially the children.
We should have parades, processions, public meetings, focus groups, petitions, debates in Parliament, loads of articles in newspapers, 24/7 wall to wall TV coverage …. no stone should be left unturned is the quest for public apology.
We should all of us donate all of our income to promote world peace and an end to global poverty ..but above all – we should say ”Sorry”.
I’ll lead the way. ”I am soooooo sorry”.
