In This message[^], the member is posting a link to an absolutely disgusting and offensive page about cruelty to animals.

It is my opinion that no serious site should or would condone or allow anything like this, and I urge Chris and Co. to remove the message containing the link immediately!

Gotta run; I've got people to do and things to see...

Don't tell my folks I'm a computer programmer - They think I'm a piano player in a cat house...

I am sorry, but I see know difference between the butchery and consumpion of a cat or the butchery and consumption of a pig.

If you are a vegetarian then I suppose the eating of any meat would be unpleasant for you, but if you are a normal omnivore like most humans, then the consumption of meat should not be a problem to you.

To remove the link is just censorship based on opinion rather than for legal reasons.

I have eaten cat, dog, frog, snake, insect and god knows what else.

Just because you dislike it is not a reason to stop others from enoying their "viande du jour".

Dave (& Griff for that matter too) - I've always thought of you as an educated and intelligent person. Guess I misjudged you. If you can't see what I'm opposing to, then tough titties!

I didn't post this as a subject for a debate, if I had done that, I would have posted it in the Lounge.

I posted it for the CP responsibles so that they can decide for themselves if this is the image they want people to have of their site. As you are neither, then this post was not directed at you, wherefor your opinion is totally irrelevant to the matter.

Suffice to say: I find the link to that degree offensive, repulsive and completely unbefitting a programming forum. If you don't agree, I couldn't care less...

So why do you expect people to care about your opinion?

Just say 'NO' to evaluated arguments for diadic functions! Ash

The image isn't on the site, it is merely a link that you may or may not choose to click to.

CP are not the moral police, and neither are you.

Ah, okay, so exactly where was the text that told you what would happen if you clicked the link?

So I guess that THIS[^] type of links are ok too (I'm sure that there are better links out there that could better prove my point, but use your own imagination and add some mental pictures to this.

Or THIS[^]

HEY, Here's one especially for for you Dave, being the racist a$$hole that you are: http://www.morphinenation.com/?p=4186[^]

It's good to know - that if your son is interested in programming and browses the CodeProject and finds links like the ones mentioned here or in the message that I'm opposed to - That his father thinks it appropriate for him. Or your sister - or your mother... IDIOT!

How the hell do you get to call me racist?

Ok, I am, I always support England and the UK when it comes to Sporting Events, and I think the UK is a great place to live.
But we all are racist, Germans support Germany, the Canadian support Canada. It would be odd if you were not racist.

It is true I laugh at foreigners and their funny ways, but that is just basic, natural British Xenophobia rather than racism.

At least I do not presume to tell others what to think, or what should be suitable for them to view.
The fact that you do, makes you the a***hole.

That and the fact that despite your constantly downvoting my posts, I have not once downvoted yours, for I believe in free speech, a concept that you obviously dislike, for it may mean that people disagree with your plainly oddball views.

If I may make a suggestion, turn off the computer, go outside and get a life you sad little man.
Try and have sex with another person, rather than yourself.
Drink and take drugs, they are great.
Stop being a Twat.

Hey, I thought it was a democratic forum with free speech...

But apart from that, I think it's quite clear what you are and several Indians can certainly testify to the fact that you have abused them verbally merely for being Indian...

You've got it wrong Dave. I'm not constantly downvoting your posts. Apart from your posts on THIS subject, I only downvote you once in while when I REALLY disagree with you. Otherwise, my normal response to your posts are 5's. I don't have the statistics, but I would say that at least 80% or more are upvotes... I didn't even downvote your "Indian" remarks I mention above even though I really thought you out of line there. I even helped you by upvoting you on one occasion when you needed a few extra votes to put you over the top on some milestone, if you will remember?

If you hadn't noticed it - you might not have been observant - I actually liked you and I really enjoyed our friendly bantering and word games.

It's not I that spend the time in front of the computer 24/7 ignoring the fact that I have a family to take care of...

Then why give me the abuse?

Of course I am up for an argument, based on advancement of premise and logical deduction, but name calling and abuse just riles me.

We may have a difference of opinion, but there is no reason to get abusive on matters.

Also, I certainly did not get racist against Indians simply for being Indian.

I have had to point out a few times to certain Indian members who were getting rather nationalistic, a few home truths, which they didn't like.
But truth is not racism, truth just is.

They assumed me to be ethnicist (A more accurate term than racist, which is often used incorrectly), but I wasn't.

The trouble is people often jump to conclusions based on opinion, not fact.

(I too am guilty of this, I admit).

I think the thread has jumped too far into the mire.

I will apologise for any insults and abuse I have given you, so long as you can accept that we have differing views on various moral standpoints.

Because I made it clear from the absolute beginning that I did not want to discuss this here. My post was directed at the CP operators and was an attempt of ME getting a dialogue with THEM.

But you couldn't leave it at that???

However, I DO accept your apology and I extend mine in return.

If you really can accept people having different views on stuff, I will say that I still think that you are sometimes out of line with your remarks towards Indians. But it really is true that I have never meddled in that or anything else you have written, nor will I...

Your post took me by surprise, and you are a bigger man than I thought (and I have seen your profile pic). And faster than me to apologize...

I have always accepted that when you are wrong, you admit it, and do so quickly so as to move on and not look like a complete arse!
