    Indeed they do, Sky High.

    The media (south of the border, at any rate) didn’t seem make as much fuss about this anti-poppy protest.

    I wonder why? :rolleyes:

    VERY Nice pics posted to everyone…

    BUT… a reminder…. if you are posting photos that YOU HAVE NOT taken with your own camera (‘taking’ photos with a camera IS different from ‘taking’ photos from websites), PLEASE make sure you are either including a web-link to the original, or the original photographer’s credits (as attached to the photo) … international copyright laws are a b*tch and no one want to be included in any law suits.

    A timely reminder, contrailjj.

    There is a world of difference between a practical discussion and nationalistic trolling/flaming.

    Whether any given posting falls into the latter category or not is a matter for the moderator team to decide, guided by the forum Code of Conduct.

    Political correctness (what a meaningless term!) doesn’t come into it.

    Please continue the discussion.

    This is part of the price we pay for freedom of expression, I’m afraid.

    It’s one of the things that the people that the poppy symbolises fought and died for – and let’s not forget that quite a few of them were Moslems, too.

    Also, let’s not play into the hands of these protesters and tar all people who share their faith with the same brush.

    This group no more represents all Moslems than the BNP represents the Church of England.

    If this turns into yet another India vs Pakistan slanging match, we’ll be having a tactical nuclear strike all of our very own.

    Think on!

    I can only echo what PMN says.

    Some fantastic shots. 🙂

    In fact, I’d love ‘Number 32’ as wallpaper on my netbook. Would that be OK with you?

    Here’s a little tip for future reference, Scott.

    Don’t ever again attempt to use a posting I have made in my capacity as moderator to add authority to snarky comments you are making about another member.

    I am greatly unamused.

    This thread will be closed for a while to allow mature reflection.

    That is all.
