At what age did you become a Right Wing Nutter ?

    Yes Anders Brevik is just as bad as the Toulouse nutter, the London, Madrid bombers etc. But my reasons for not being a big fan of multiculturalism actually have nothing to do with whatever extremist side that comes with it. Like i said above in my other post "I'm done explaining myself".

    You don't have to explain yourself, it's fairly clear

    I had a good run as a young hippy liberal.
    Save the whales, no US troops through Shannon, feed the world, reliable healthcare for all, no to Sellafield & all that.
    Since I've been married, bought a house & had kids I've become much more conservative.
    Liberal issues now do nothing for me, I see welfare state spongers as the lowest rung of society, if you can't afford that expensive operation will you just hurry up & die quickly, I don't care where my energy comes from as long as it's cheap, blow up half the middle-east if it keeps petrol below €2 a litre, I can't wait to shot a burglar.
    It's getting worse the older I get & I'm only 39, what am I going to be like when I'm 70.
    There's a chance I could vote FF again in my lifetime.

    At what age did you flip to the darkside ?.

    Probably late 20's.

    I'm delighted we can facilitate US troops through Shannon. I think we should look after our friends in this world. Not a-la the nonsensical "Special relationship" the British think they have, but just as two friendly nations.

    As to oil, I think it's way past time to get away from that stuff. Let them who have it swim in it, fk'em.

    I'll never vote FF, not even with a gun to my head or a brown envelope in the table :pac:

    I do believe in the rule of law, the private ownership of property and the pursuit of wealth, but I think there are too many unenforced stupid and unnecessary laws. Time for a major cull.

    I don't believe people have enough individual freedoms here.

    I don't believe "multiculturalism" works.

    I don't believe we need the size civil/public service/Government that we have.

    Ah, another supporter of Shannon Whoreport. So, you're in favour of rendition, kidnap and the facilitation of torture. Ouch.

    Do you believe monoculturalism works? How does allowing foreign warmongers safe passage through the country advance monoculturalism?

    Saved me the trouble of calling you a hippy anyway :p

    Yes I've said I support the US military transiting through Shannon. I think it was George Bush or someone in his Government who said would people rather fight terrorists in the US (West in general) or on their doorstep. I will unashamedly pick their door step each and every time, and twice on Sundays.

    I've no problem with any of the things you mention in regards to terrorists or their facilitators, I'd rather that than see another London, Madrid, or New York attack. I've no sympathy for terrorists, home grown or otherwise. fk'em all equally.

    I believe everyone in a country should have the same rights, but must realise that the culture in the country they live in is the dominant one. I for one will not be travelling to Saudi Arabia with the intention of cracking open a beer in a public park there. I don't agree with minorities objecting to the culture of the country they live in on grounds it insults/doesn't agree with their culture or religion. They're welcome to stay, but if it annoys them so much well, frankly, piss off home, thanks very much.

    After the World economy went to sh*te and then realising how damaging socialist talking shops like the EU are.

    I'd vote Conservative in the UK but not Republican in the US. Just about sums up my right wing-ism.

    1 - You are aware that economic conservative systems laid the groundwork for said "World economic system" goign to "****e"?
    2 - Can you elaborate on what you mean by EU "damaging socialist talking shops"?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Yeah, well. I believe that people have the right to question the nature of a country and its laws whatever they believe and wherever they live. And I did piss of elsewhere, got a bit tired of the Thatcherite attitude in Dublin in the late 90s. Not to mention the racism and the materialistic bias.

    You despise the terrorists who carry out attacks in the name of Islam or Ireland but you laud the terrorists who carry out attacks abroad in the name of freedom and the US? :rolleyes:

    Kidnap, torture and abuse is bad when the terrorists do it to the West but kidnap, torture and abuse is a good thing when terrorists do it for "freedom".

    Jesus fricking christ on a bike :(

    A lot of people are left-wing in their teens. Then they get older and most of them grow out of it.
