    Chosing people to be symbols of a country because of their parentage is a stupid idea - it puts too much pressure on these kids and they can't live a normal life. I'm glad we elect ours (even if our president is a total bore at this stage).

    So he dresses up as a nazi, big deal. He's just wearing his traditional family costume.

    You know you're right in your world, in which you're king, judge and jury. (or possibly Judge Judy, but I don't need to know that)

    the romasn killed lots of people,
    no one cares about toga parties , blah blah blah

    maybe they should focus on the idea of a colonial and antive party [wtf?] all jungle bunnies and tally ho old boy.

    maybe harry was riping the piss out of the idea of having a party with slavery as the theme?

    wasnt rommel voted during the 2nd world war as the most charasmatic general by the british?

    Maybe he should have made clear he was dressing up as rommel because very few people seem to have a problem with him.

    christians have murdered and slaughtered their way across the known world for many hundreds of years...would you be getting this offended if he dressed up as a priest? or a member of the spanish inquisition? or pee wee herman?

    The Sun have once again acted to save modern society from the scourge of these highly influential people acting irresponsibily in public (albeit in private, but visable with a 8000x lens, from the top of the wardrobe, honest).

    Get off your fscking high horses and google for a life, people (but not "I'm feeling lucky").

    This is pretty funny... apparently Harry underestimated the voracious hunger of the tabloids to feed their readers twisted sensationalism.

    Thank God he didn't dress up as Osama bin Laden, clearly that would've made him an Islamic extremist.

    If he had applied for the position then I might agree, but I think it's very unfair to hold him to a higher standard just because of who his parents are.

    ****ing tabloids :rolleys:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,767 ✭✭✭Infini


    Well what can you say, he dressed up in a Nazi uniform. That alone is like painting a bullseye on yourself for the tabloids to take free-for-all potshots. The tabloids seem to make a big deal out of the most insignificant things that no regular person exept the old folks and the jewish bitch groups would give a rats ass about. Besides it was a party and was probably just looking for a bit of a laugh and it wasn't like he was dressed up as Hitler.

    I do hope you are trolling... Since when does wearing a fancy dress costume implicate you in using the death of millions for your own personal kicks?

    If anything he was taking the piss out of the Nazis by lowering their uniform to the frivolity of a teenage party, like, I don't think he was really making a fine point about advocating Nazi ideologies with the costume. "Gosh."
    :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,762 ✭✭✭✭Winters


    Can anyone remember the last Fancy Dress party they were at where someone wasn't dressed up as a Nazi or Hitler himself?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,575 ✭✭✭elivsvonchiaing


    It just strikes me the poor cúnt could have been inspired by his mates to do this - maybe even Will (to stir the sh!t) - knowing whatever he does the fúcking tabloids will be on his case - not appreciating the magnitude of the case they'd make.

    No, I really, and sincerely feel sorry for him, this wasn't about p!ssing people off I reckon; it was more about exploring boundaries - not "I'm a Nazi what are ya gonna do about it!". More I'll try this - and if the tabloids print my picture - fúck 'em anyhow! Who cares ? :eek:

    Think this was all about disdain for the tabloids - and naivity tbh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,264 ✭✭✭✭Hobbes


    a person in his position is a representative and figurehead leader of a nation

    Actually I think his royal term is "Spare Wheel". Which is why he can get up to this sort of stuff.

    I can his apology now.. Harry: "Oh look a square piece of dirt on the window.. Oh here come the reporters now" (Waves).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,880 ✭✭✭Canis Lupus


    I'd have more respect for the royal family if more of em publicly got up to stuff like this.

    at which point does one get 'kicks out of the death of millions' and dressing up in a uniform come together?

    i am a little confused at how easily you have dumped one onto the other.

    the idea of a fancy dress party is to wear clothes that you dont normally wear, either silly clothes, funny styled clothes, out dated or moded clothes.
    at no point have i ever heard of the 'wear clothes that will give you kicks based on the pain and hurt caused to as many people as possible' party.

    i think you are just trying to put words into our mouths that arent there.

    so if you can please explain exactly how you came to that conclussion above, id happily read it. after all, it is friday, and i expect i will have a free hour this afternoon.

    It's over the top and we all know it. If he went in a Devil costume, the tabloids would claim he's a devil worshipper.

    Anyone who's angry over this is allowing themselves to get swept up in moronic brain frying of the tabloids.

    It wasn't even a good costume. A bit like putting a sweatband around your bicep and saying you're dressed up as a football captain, even though you're wearing jeans and shoes.

    bingo.

    An ill judged decision by Prince Harry if you ask me.

    Sensationalist reporting by the media as usual, but it is a story that has been reported by the world press so it's not just an English Tabloid thing.

    Just one question to everybody that thought it was just a bit of fun.

    Would it have been ok/acceptable if he had of went to the party dressed in full KKK regalia?

    B.

    Yes. Actually that would be funnier.

    The world in my eyes is slowly turning into such a PC dump. A person can't do a single thing anymore without someone saying something including the words like outrage or sickening etc etc

    God, that would be hilarious :D:D
    Fair plate to Harry, he doesn't seem to give a fook what anyone thinks of him.

    If that's the case, why is he giving a personal apology after already aopologising by letter?

    B.

    Yes. Actually that would be funnier.

    I suppose for pure shock value it would be funny, but it would be in extremely bad taste and ill thought out IMO.

    I also think this was the case. He's incredably niave and dim... He claims he'd never even heard of Auschwitz. Was the photo actually taken on a zoom lens by a paparazzi or by someone at the party, perhaps the person who told him it would be 'really funny' to dress as a Nazi?

    Well, I think at this stage he realises that he can do what he wants as long as he "apologises" for it afterwards.
