Late for a meeting.

We normally back up what we say though. You are tarring all police officers with the same brush which is wrong. Yes there will be some who are druggies, some will even be thieves too. To suggest they get the first choice on any retrieved drugs is taking it a bit far though.

Rather like you tarring all immigrants as spongers methinks now THATS what i call hypocritical

Why am I hypocritical kendor? If I said all immigrants were spongers(which I didn't) and you said all British workers are lazy(which you did). What is the difference in our comments. Surely if I'm a hypocrite you are too?

Petewood insinuated that all the police are helping themselves to drugs which is a pathetic statement for an important company director to make.

Sorry for my pathetic statements. You are quite right as usual. I don't regard myself as being very 'important', I will try to redress this problem in future (perhaps I should buy a bigger car?). I also promise to try not to tell any more jokes about policemen. Are lawyers fair game?

I am not right "as usual" you made an insinuation which you didn't back up, not a joke, jokes are usually followed by these especially so when they are a pathetic and one can't tell it was a joke.

I didn't say all british workers are lazy! but to do so would only be using your method of tarring everyone so it would be no different to your method of argument.
I've sussed your subtle method of changing someones viewpoint to make yourself look the better in a discussion ( you call it an argument i'd call it discussion).
such as saying " and you said all British workers are lazy(which you did). "which i never did i said majority unfortunately the good workers that i have worked with are few.

 

[david and julie]

I have no interest in changing your viewpoint to make myself look better than anybody. OK, I misquoted you, by saying "all" instead of "majority" by mistake. Nevertheless you were still offensive in calling the majority of British people you have worked with lazy compared to foreigners. I would imagine the foreigners were in a minority so any hard working ones may stand out, likewise the British would more than likely be the majority so obviously you would see more lazy ones. Is that not the case really? We will never agree about how we feel on this issue kendor but like I said, there are good and bad as well as lazy and productive people in all races. One race is not naturally harder working than another surely we are all individual in this respect?

 

[kendor]

then i agree with you if you go by what you said in the last two lines
