Pro-Choice/Anti-Widdy Demonstration: Cardiff, March 4th

[dylanredefined]

Yet again the nature of the demonstration, which meeting attendees had to pick their way through, is clearly described.

Remember that the demonstrators refused to move to the other side of the road.

I want to make it absolutely and totally clear that I did nothing ... to provoke or antagonise the situation.

Aside, of course, from being part of a "noisy and chanting" demonstration which refused to demonstrate several metres away from meeting attendees, but crowded right up to the entrance so meeting attendees had to brave a gauntlet of "militant" protesters chanting inflammatory slogans. And to cap it all there was also Redwatch-style photographing of meeting attendees. No wonder they were terrified. No wonder Penderyn/<removed> found it all so hugely enjoyable.

you reap what you sew pity there werent any bombs.

There are also many who believe Ann Widdecombe doesn't have a right to live.

Such as who? Surely she's allowed to have her point of view. It's comments like that which make this board suck for debating.

Oh ffs grow an irony detector. Do you really think I was suggesting lots of people want to murder Anne Widdecombe?
Stupid people annoy me.

Yes, it looked that way.

I don't know you, htf how am I supposed to know whether you're joking or not? And don't insult people you don't know.

Yes, it looked that way.

Irony: when the literal meaning is different to the implied meaning.
The whole point of irony is that it initially LOOKS like it means something different to what it actually implies.

I know you well enough to see that you cannot detect implied meaning. This suggests a certain degree of stupidity. It's merely an observation.

I've posted on forums like this one long enough to know that detecting implied meaning is pretty difficult when all you have to go on is the text record. Even university students have sometimes thought I was being serious when I wasn't.

That's what smilies are for.

Really? Does Cakes deny that the termination of a pregnancy involves the deliberate destruction of a living foetus? Is he suggesting that there is such a thing as a pregnancy without a living foetus? What on earth does he think happens during spontaneous abortion? Is he seriously suggesting that pregnant women who feel their foetuses kick inside them are delusional? Can he suggest any clinical reason for a woman having an induced abortion when there is no foetus living within her?

Engaged in such a phenomenal flight from reality, no wonder Cakes finds pictures of aborted foetuses so mind-rocking. He's so ignorant of basic human biology that he doesn't even know - or can't bear to admit - that pregnant women have foetuses living and growing in their wombs.

Why do you assume Cakes is a man?

It is not acceptable here to post real names of posters without their explicit consent; kindly refrain from doing so.

My mistake. Apologies to the individual concerned. It won't happen again.

 

[Garnet]

Yes, you won the argument. Well done. You have persuaded us that we are all murderous paedophiles with the sheer force of reason and logical argument. That must feel good. Now bugger off.

Really, llantwit, is that the best you can do, venture petty sarcasm and crummy schoolboy swearing in lieu of argument?
And why the peevish tone, eh?

 

[llantwit]

Because I äm peeved, and can think of better things to do than argue with right wing ideologues.
