Human rights violation in Germany (homeschooling issue)

A thief perhaps? *sharpens axe*

I agree that you don't really seem to have much more to offer than blind following of some ideal, chopping peoples' heads of doesn't exactly make the world a better place.

Blind following an ideal? I believe that every man should be equal before the law. I will happily follow that ideal blindly.

Banquo is an aristocrat?

And to think I trusted him because he knew some Russian. Let this be a lesson to me so I would never let my guard down...

*tightens the rope, sharpens the blade of the guillotine* Let's do it, HoreTore *nods*





Seriously? Banquo better have an answer...





Wait a sec, if he is an aristocrat, how did he recognise the m'at enough to give me an infraction? He cannot speak that language. Only someone who has been around the lowest scum knows it. Mighty suspicious if you ask me...

If I remember correctly, his wife is Russian, so it's a fair cop.

Shoot, I know that, I was keeping quiet about it because there is a thing called courtesy and I do not reveal what personal details a member reveals to me in a PM...

But if you heard him say it in public, then I suppose it is fair game. I, however, did not receive that knowledge on a thread, but in a PM from him, so I follow the etiquette and do not mention it on a thread where everyone else can read it. If Banquo chooses to reveal it himself, that is fine, but I have no such right.

Hehe, well, as well all know, the first thing people learn in a foreign language is the cursing. I speak three to five langauges (three fluently, other just conversationally), but I can curse in more than ten, at the very least. I made a point of actually sitting down and learning each curse. I never curse in English, not in my speech. Not kidding. Nor do I use those awkward and undisputedly lame minced oaths or other substitutions that a Southern religious persons often employ. Instead I curse in borderline-vulgar foreign curses (from the langauges I do not speak).

So no surprise that you know m'at, but Banquo, as an aristocrat, should be above that. Then again, he was in the armed forces (he said this in a thread on the Berlin Wall), so...

Exactly, and how does that relate to killing them for the sins of their forefathers?

You of all people should know when I'm not being entirely serious, Husar

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

negative, there is no aristocracy in existance in Norway, and hasn't been for centuries. The conclusion was a criminal and a prostitute who ran into hiding, IIRC...

I said aristocracy, not nobility. We don't have nobility at all in Britain anyway, just aristocracy.

Bah. I fully stand by my constitution, where it states that the aristocracy should not be tolerated. I would have absolutely no objection to the british government doing the same and taking away every mention of hereditary titles within it's system and laws.

Banquo and men like him have inherrited intact estates, neither they nor their ancestors were stupid. They look after their dependents and they deserve respect for their achievements, given the number of noble and aristocratic families who have managed to carelessly lose everything.

Banquo has been flatteringly candid over the years, we know, for example, that his wife is a Russian Aristocrat who would like a Romanov restoration, and apparently once had a minor apoplexy when the Queen served herself a sandwich.

All well and good, but it means absolutely nothing to me when it comes to the law. Under that we should all be equal.

Is that a tone of Social Darwinism I hear, My Dear Philip?

Uh-hum. So was the m'at taught to her so she could communicate with wretches lower than her?
