Lilyhammer, right meets left?

I know it is frustrating, but we should keep away from personal insults. Point out the flaws in Billi's post and his thinking so that other people do not buy into some of that nonsense. When we stoop to insults, we apear to be what Billi wants us to apear to be.

I haven't insulted him, I honestly believe his political views are fascist in nature. Perhaps in America you call people you don't like fascist but I'm using it in the true sense of the word not as an insult.

And read what I posted again: I haven't insulted him at all.....:lfao:

Weeeeelllllll

that is splitting hairs though.......

And we can get back to my question from Tuesday: if it's true, is it an insult?

Anyway...the first two episodes were okay. Norway looks way too cold in the winter. The scenery is really nice though, and I wonder how the E-street band guy got involved in a show from Norway.

I enjoy when this topic comes up, I always find new info. on the leftism of the nazis...

When you hear what the actual national socialist party goals were, you don't get the feeling they stood for individual freedom, or capitalism...

Do we need to send out warnings ahead of time?

You'll forgive me if I prefer this Nordic based video offering :angel:

Warnings: I didn't have the sound on so I don't know what music/commentary there is and also be aware that the comments below the video are not very civilised - it seems the racists are out in force for this one .

My thoughts on the first two episodes of Lilyhammer...

There are two things that I disagreed with on the show. First, there is a scene where a muslim man refuses to shake the hands with a woman. Frankie the fixer corners this guy in the bathroom and slaps him around to make him more respectful. Now, if not touching a strange woman is part of the muslim religious practice, it wasn't right to do this to the guy. Religious freedom is religious freedom. If he had been hitting or beating a woman, that would have been a different story.

Next...a police officer walks into the fast food place of the same muslim guy and turns the t.v. onto the program 24. Obviously, it is the season where muslim terrorists were the central villians. The muslim man turns the channel back and the police officer gives him grief, tells the owner he has a constitutional right to change the channel, in a private business, and threatens to call in health inspectors to close down his restaurant. This too is wrong because private property is private property. Sure, it may be different in Norway, but to an American conservative, if you own property, the government needs to stay out of your business. It may be different in Norway, it will be interesting to see what other differences there are.

I think the show has potential, and I'll keep watching it. It is interesting that Frankie the fixer is actually a sympathetic character who gets the girl.

Gran, I'm going with the family so can't chase nice Norwegian men, we are going on a boat that plys up and down the coast stopping at various places, it isn't a cruise liner but a ferry and transport ship. Looks wonderful. http://www.hurtigruten.co.uk/norway...pring-Classic-Round-Voyage-15-March---31-May/

At Trondheim I'll go and see the MMA club there that sends fighters across to us, really nice guys, very good fighters.
