Nor was the Black Adda series about the trenches in the first world war, but it was still funny

Nor was the "Dont mention the war" scetch in faulty towers, but it was still funny

Nor were millions of jokes and send up about past wars in history, but we still make light of them.

Do we need to be so politicle correct that we cant express humor anymore?

dont forget, we also relocated them to reservations (camps to concentrate their population)

:thumbsup

150 silly princes in fancy dress

:1orglaugh
damn you ... I just pissed in my pantaloons.

I know what you are saying and I suppose the answer is that distance is a powerful healer but in the scheme of things there has been very much distance between the acts of the nazis and now. Yeah, I know how that sounds but it is true. See, I guess what I don't get is intentionally doing things that you (general you) know will deeply hurt some people. What is the point? It is that lack of 'filter' that I question and especially from someone from a family where there is no excuse not to know history - it is his family history!

Its not unusual, Ive been to parties where people have dressed up as Nazzis, hitler, gengis khan, jack the ripper and even George Bush.

Firstly you obviously didn't watch the last episode of Black Adder or you would know that yes, it was careful to honour the people. Secondly, it was using a back drop of a war as a story telling device. There is a difference between that (aka the Producers) and just thinking 'hey Nazis are cool..I will dress up as one of those'

Oh do I love Rowan, and Basil (always you hheet me ... no-no, iz ham-ster not rat), especially his little 'walk', but I best not mention the name of it.

Similar to the way some religious groups view sex is how this looks to me. Some can laugh and make jokes while others run from the mere mention.

OK now your talking shit. When and where did Prince harry says Nazzis are cool? !!

We wasnt there we dont know why he did it, but some of us think it may have been a silly fancy dress idea, where as you are determined for no reason to start saying that he did it because he thinks Nazzis are cool.

Please show me where Harry said Nazzis are cool?

WTF ... did the shat hit the fan? :upsidedow

Oh give me a break. So now we can't dress up as Roman soldiers or Napoleon, or as any 'possibly offensive' outfit. The english got is as bad during WW2 this is obviously a joke. Geez, wtf people?

I understand somewhat where you are coming from. There are many horrible things that have happened over time. I guess the thing that gets me is that the Holocaust is so recent that there are still people alive who directly suffered from the events. To have an heir to the throne wear a uniform that downplays what they went through, is a harsh slap in the face.

okay..follow me here...at some point when he was thinking up costumes he had to think 'wow, you know what would be great!? If I dressed up as a Nazi'. Now, most of us don't have that switch that would ever say to us 'put on a Nazi outfit'.

Does he have such leanings? I don't know him to be able to say but he obviously is missing the good taste gene. WHICH is all this has been about for me.

I'm supposed to be going to a costume party next month. If I get a friend to dress as lion and I dress as a Roman, I wonder how many christians we can offend?

Maybe missing the good taste gene, but its not unusual, the British arnt known always for good taste in humor. I think the gene he is missing is more like the "common sense" gene. He should have known the papers would have been all over this in a minute.

What hacks me off is that the german television has taken such offence to it, because they think that will make them look good.

Dont Menzion ze var :winkwink:

to have respect for a fucking 20 year old who you think is some kind of PRINCE is a slap in the face to humanity.

heir to the throne?

kings and queens, will you people catch up with the rest of the world please?

Only the God fearing creatures have issues with their definition of hah-hah.

I love the Brit's version of humor and chose that over all others.

I think it's an issue of having some common sense. It's doesn't matter how expensive was his education, he's suffering from lack of common sense.

Here is my salute to the Queen ....

Yep you cant buy common sense, which is a shame for him

What an idiot :

"....MANY members of the Royal Family played a vital role fighting the Nazis.

The Queen Mum and her husband King George VI kept the nation?s spirits up by refusing to leave London and visiting areas devastated by the Blitz."

For fucks sakes. It's a nazi uniform. Get the fuck over it, the nazi's havent officially existed for what, 60 fucking years?

If he'd dressed as Count Dracula, the romanians would be up in arms. If he'd dressed as a Tyranasaurus Rex, palientologists would be having a heart attack. If he'd dressed as an Indian, the fucking indians would be screaming bloody murder.

Famous people always get the shitty end of the stick thrust into their face as soon as they do something even one tiny minority considers "wrong". Just leave them the fuck alone, they've already got enough shit on their plate and dont need you fucking nit pickers deciding what is right and what is wrong and whether or not what they ate for breakfast this morning was going to ruin their perfect hourglass figure.

</rant>

Couldnt have put it better myself :thumbsup Though Im not sure about the palientologists, they are a mad bunch when they get going :winkwink:

that is unexcusable. nazis and kkk are nothing to joke about

this time he has gone too far..

too late, that guys and idiot...who actually thinks of him as a prince though, fuck the royal family all they ever did was be born

The 'Royal' family is from German decent - in terms of European history that was not that long ago - and the last name was changed so to hide the fact.

Knowing that, I am still chuckling about the Harry and his antics.
