    I had to look up what that meant. I thought maybe the people kept in the camp had scratched their names on the wall. It turns out though that writing your name there is a popular tourist activity. I did a Google search and found a few blogs by people talking about how shocked they were to see graffiti all over a wall.

    Yeah that's what struck me about it too! So out of all the fools who were fool enough to write their damn fool name on the wall he was the only one fool enough to get caught?

    Also "I wrote my name because other people had done it and then immediately co-operated with the authorities", prick definitely would have been a Nazi.

    Can't say I'm finding most of the puns here funny, but not because they're offensive, because most of them are literally word for word reposts of something that was funny the first time someone said it on a forum fifteen years ago.

    What happened in that place is beyond words and what that moron did on his visit is a disgrace.

    The jokes here are in bad taste but they are funny.
    If I was running a site I probably would not allow those jokes but no law is been broken.

    In fairness Anne I don't think there is any malice in any of the posts in this thread in contrast to the other one.

    I think he is a good moderator you know they are allowed to have an opinion.
    Jesus the site would be so dull if this week's newspeak was crammed down all our necks.

    Valid criticism is not hateful racist sexist or any kind of phobic.

    Funny that, anyone with a different view on Ssm or abortion wasn't allowed that convenience on boards, they were banned. Again, my point is selective

    Maybe it is a good idea to have a look at people's posts and thanks to see if they engage in selective discrimination or are possibly a bit hypocritical calling people out for being offensive and lacking empathy.

    You are so wrong I find all violence very upsetting.
    Jokes are a different kettle of fish.

    I like to say I hate cats and I make all sorts of jokes about them.
    However, if I saw somebody being cruel to a cat I would hate them with a vengeance.
    I am somebody who really likes cats.:confused:

    So joking about 6million people, family, and kids is ok ? Gassed and burnt alive is akin to a cat ? Yes good point

    Funny enough I agree with you but boards are privately owned and different moderators have different interpretations of the board rules.

    Jokes are humour but on the serious side, you do not see anybody defending the 38-year-old moron that did this.

    How are they out of context in this thread, lunacy if you can't see the difference, if you asked a holocost survivor do you honestly think they would agree ?

    No they weren't, or at least not if they managed to convey those opinions in a respectful and non offensive manner.

    Whereas the ones here are obviously meant to be dead serious?


    Tongue in cheek posts about people who are alive now being raped, or saving us money by dying are grand, but jokes about people dying seventy years ago are just too far over the line?

    You've outdone yourself, even as someone whose username (under which you post some of the meanest spirited bile I've had the misfortune to read on this site) is, what, a mark of respect?

    :rolleyes:

    That's my grievance cinema, it's like the journal.ie . It's not journalism as we know it, it's propaganda by the mods with their opinions, disagree and your banned

    I am banned from the Star Wars forum because I think The Last Jedi was rubbish.
    According to rotten tomatoes, most of the audience agree.

    That is just life.:)
