    They changed the name of a dog - histoy will never be the same!


    The N word in the 1940's wasn't offensive. It was the word for black.
    Tard isn't an offense - it's just the 21st century's word for Avro...

    Yup. Many still use that excuse today...

    Avro, what you wrote was both ignorant and offensive. I suggest that you delete your posts, rather than claiming innocence.

    Are you saying that Guy Gibson was ignorant and offensive? He named his dog N because it was Black. No other reason.

    You and Bearcat and a few others here should take a reality check. Stop drowning in self righteous pompous indignation and face the facts that Britain in 1943 wasn't a racist cess-pit.

    I'm standing up for Gibson. He lost his young and talented life fighting a Nazi German organisation that would have exterminated blacks.

    Give it some thought. That's all I ask.

    And try not to be an internet bully-gang

    Avro, I'm not arguing with Guy Gibson, I'm arguing with you, for what you wrote:
    The N word in the 1940's wasn't offensive. It was the word for black.

    There was N shoe polish at the time in Britain.

    But I'm surprised and hurt that Gibson would be portrayed as having a 'black dog'. The term 'black dog' is offensive.

    The word 'have' is offensive. It implies ownership and domination.

    And 'slavery' is offensive. For 10,000 years , slavery has been the 'norm'. Mankind has enslaved others for as long as mankind can remember. Even black folks were enslaved by black folks.

    But praise be. Tony Blair. He who is White. Is the only human on the planet who has apologised for for being a slaver.Which he wasn't.

    Guy Gibson's dog should be called Hitler. For that word is not offensive. And can be freely used.

    Amen.

    Nobody has 'portrayed' Gibson as anything - they have given his dog a different name in a Hollywood film.

    You were clearly being provocative, but then this seems to be your style. You go out of your way to provoke people, and then claim to be the 'victim'. Frankly, I think this forum would be a better place without you.

    Trying to get me banned are you?

    Just because you can't respond effectively?

    You are a self-proclaimed Marxist. We will never get on.

    But I would never suggest that the forum would be better without you.

    That's the difference between us. I like debate but you seek to stifle it.
