    A follow on from Tennyson's thought provoking thread on extremism. Part of the conversation in the thread elicited these responses.

    I thought it would be interesting to hear people's 'apologies'.

    [Points raised could be serious, light-hearted or somewhere in between!]

    Here are Kaiser's original apologies (hope you don't mind me borrowing them):

    Quote:

    As a woman, I apologize for The View.

    As a Kentuckian, I apologize for Majority Leader of the Senate Mitch McConnell.

    As a bisexual, I apologize for being indecisive and in an uncontrollable lusty rage, all the time, because there is never enough people to go around, LOL.

    As an American, I apologize for Ronald Reagan and the mistreatment of Native Americans, as well as acid wash jeans and the Westboro Baptist Church.

    As a white person, I apologize for Adolf Hitler and selfies."

    And here are mine:

    As a white, English person, I apologise for the BNP and EDL.

    As an aetheist, I apologise for Richard Dawkins.

    As a female politician, I apologise for Margaret Thatcher.

    Ouch, I hadn't even thought of them!

    As a '90s child, I also apologise for the Spice Girls. They actually made it that much worse by insisting on wearing the flag!

    As a Brit I apologise for Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair, David Cameron, Nick Clegg.

    I will put this one separate: As a British person I apologise for Nick Griffin but NOT the BNP as a whole. My reason: The BNP did not start out as the Fascist group it now is. It actually started out as what the SNP is now. With good base values. But when Nick Griffin took the helm is when the party started to decline to the bullshit dogma party is it now.
