You can't blame the kids for the parent's mistakes.[/QUOTE]
By that logic you could argue that you can't blame anyone for anything since that persons parent is to blame, and their parent is to blame for them being to blame. In the end a single cell'd organism which lived millions of years ago would end up being the one with the blame placed on them.
Of course they don't know that what they are doing is stupid, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be bastards to them about it.

They are not part of the United Kingdom, just dependencies.

Not when the people involved are young children, they don't know any better.
Canada has no hate groups
[quote]- Ku Klux Klan
- Hate against Mexicans/black people/asians/native americans ("They steal our jobs/rape my children/sell drugs")
- Nazis (that's right)
- Westboro Baptist Church (and people who think alike)
- Anti semites in all versions[/quote]
Don't forget Islamophobia.
[QUOTE=SwizzChees;16980558]No I'm swiss. And by "invade" I mean that most foreigners are german in our country.
Half of our office are german so there's no hate against them.[/QUOTE]
I see, oh well.
I was right about them never invading Britain though.
What's with the surveillance thing I'm hearing about over there? Care to elaborate on that?
Wait wait wait, prostitution's legal?
[QUOTE=Detective P;16980720]What's with the surveillance thing I'm hearing about over there? Care to elaborate on that?[/QUOTE]
That is really a HUGE topic. In short, the current government tries to force surveillance onto the people while saying it is for the greater good. To prevent child porn on the Internet, they log all your connections, and BLOCK FUCKING WEBSITES. That's right.
And if you believe that they will use that only to block illegal content, you are dumb. They will block everything they want, be it criticism about the government, warez, violent games and what not. It is not at that point yet, but if it continues like that, it will go there. Basically the same like in australia and other countries that block websites. Like 1% of that is child porn, the rest is other shit they don't want on the net. I don't have the source now, but some of you may know the exact numbers.
And to above, yes. Prostitution is legal as long as you are old enough.
Why Germany is totally awesome:
We have history
We have cool cities
We know how to party
We've got money
German chicks are pretty hot.
We make cars and mobile phones and Slapchop
We have the world's biggest annual video game trade fair. (Gamescom)

That level of censorship is ridiculous. You guys should stage a technological revolt. Somehow.

People are going pretty bad shit about it. The people that care and understand that is. Since Germany's majority of inhabitants is old people, that is not enough. Old people are mostly either like "meh" or "HELL YEAH AGAINST CHILD PORN/CRIME ON THE INTERNET" because they don't understand what is happening.

No but it will affect them sooner or later. When your fingerprint is on your ID. When your face/head is in 3D on your ID. (Yes that is planned). When they install cameras in doctors and lawyers offices (if they are a suspect)

on the bright side, it gives them more freedom to get rid of cults such as scientology...
[QUOTE=I Memo;16980885]on the bright side, it gives them more freedom to get rid of cults such as scientology...[/QUOTE]
No, it gives a little group of people the power to decide what is good for you and what is not.
Do people in Germany try and forget the Nazi past.
[QUOTE=microsnakey;16980900]Do people in Germany try and forget the Nazi past.[/QUOTE]
No they don't. People with brains try to prevent it from happening again. Also, how Maurice said, it is taught in school and brought up alot. There is alot on the television about it.
[QUOTE=microsnakey;16980900]Do people in Germany try and forget the Nazi past.[/QUOTE]
Of course not, they teach it in school. (And yes, hitler IS the bad guy)
"[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wave_%28book%29]The Wave[/url]" is a book almost everyone reads at school.
[QUOTE=Johnnsen;16980913]No they don't. People with brains try to prevent it from happening again.[/QUOTE]
Do you think thats the reason for the over censorship of everything
[QUOTE=I Memo;16980844]They are British territory, the other guy was saying how Germany never set foot on British soil[/QUOTE]
It was me that said that. I meant the Nazis during WW2 because I thought thats what he was saying.
But the Channel Islands are not British territory. They are Crown Dependencies. So they are owned by the crown of the UK as opposed to being an overseas territory.
[QUOTE=microsnakey;16980926]Do you think thats the reason for the over censorship of everything[/QUOTE]
No, that has nothing to do with it. The reason is butthurt old people who think playing counter strike makes your children going postal.
How I said, there is a lot of documentary on the Television about nationalism and there it is not censored. Not the swastikas nor other things. Der Untergang was a german movie and not censored in any way. Don't confuse things.
[QUOTE=microsnakey;16980926]Do you think thats the reason for the over censorship of everything[/QUOTE]
It's most likely the rampages in schools which happened in the past 9 years.
Edit:
Yeah, mixed with the stupid old people ("He learned how to aim a gun by playing killer games!")
Do you listen to more german or english music???
[QUOTE=microsnakey;16980977]Do you listen to more german or english music???[/QUOTE]
English only. And I don't really like Germany either. It's just a place to live.

That sounds extreme, the people wouldn't allow that would they?
[QUOTE=Victor Leferve;16980987]That sounds extreme, the people wouldn't allow that would they?[/QUOTE]
Being all "meh" and "I don't have anything to hide" and "if it is to prevent porn/crime" about it will make it happen. And it will come to other countries as well because people don't care or are just stupid enough not to fight it.
[QUOTE=microsnakey;16980977]Do you listen to more german or english music???[/QUOTE]
they listen to bands like Landser cause it reminds them of the good ole times
