Politicians on Facebook: 'Anime is A Prime Example of Why Two Nukes Just Wasn't Enough'

[A random person]

To answer in reverse order, not long, it appears he does and it was probably 'Fubuki Arcade Gamer'.

A likely guess, but I have money on Eiken myself. Or Shitsurakuen [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Shitsurakuen] (in three words: misogynistic duel monsters), since it's likely he also refers to manga as anime.

On topic, to say what I said in the other thread, I wasn't so much offended as thinking "that wasn't funny the first 500 times the internet said it." Mostly, I'm just wondering what anime he's seen.

Oh, and I'm from South Carolina, this is nothing to me.

And speaking of nukes, politicians are a prime example of why Fallout 3 is an improvement over Washington, DC as it currently stands. I'd rather the place be full of Super Mutants.

Super Mutants in suits who argue pointless trivialities in Congress.

When they're not shooting at Talon Company mercs in the Capitol building?

Or complaining about their socialist President!

'RAWR! Super Mutant says healthcare is COMMUNISM!'

Heyyo!

Hmm...Do Ghouls get free healthcare? I mean, their dead, but....erm....

So call in Liberty Prime. "Death is preferable to Communism."

As for the Republicans, here's a rejected analogy from the SAT: Racist, intolerant right-wing extremists : Christians :: al-Qaeda : Muslims.

You know this guy is a democrat, right?

Look, this guy is obviously an idiot, but as for all the judgement about how he needs to die now, calm down children.

You know darn well that if a friend of yours who used inflammatory statements in place of humor said this, you'd probably laugh. Especially if you knew from his actions that he wasn't racist.

Don't react to bad humor you interpret as unintentional hate speech with your own intentional hate speech.

The media needs to stop feeding trolls.

I like how the internet makes it easier for people to show how intolerant they are. He could have kept it to himo, he had self and just act like nothing happened but no, he had to open his mouth. Do people really see this as acceptable behavior? Regardless of the content of what he said why does he assume saying such an offensive message is acceptable? He didn't apologize directly after wards so clearly he thought that was an acceptable thing to say and I don't think any amount of apology letters can make up for being genuinely intolerant.

Well it was obviously a bad thing to say however, I can't think of what problem he has with anime. I just hope the media doesn't sensationalise the story because I would hate to see loads of kids starting to think that anime is cool when before they weren't bothered about it.

 

[Ranorak]

If someone from the middle east would say
'MTV is A Prime Example of Why Two Planes Just Wasn't Enough'

It'll be bigger then a certain person revealing flesh on a award night.

 

[Good morning blues]

I think he's got it backwards ? if anything, anime is a prime example of why nukes are bad.

I assure you that will never be a problem.

 

[PixieFace]

W-What? I hate anime, yeah, but why would someone use that to justify the MURDER of thousands of people? Even if it's a joke, that is a seriously demented sense of humor.

People make me sadface sometimes.

 

[Bat Vader]

Why are there politicians like him? I hope he either gets kicked out of politics or resigns for making that type of statement. Any politician that makes that type of statement does not deserve to be in politics.

God, I love Facebook.

Everyone's dirty, dark thoughts are visable for all the world to see.

 

[acosn]

I love how the TV reports went out of their way to be "even" on the subject and say that the comments could be deemed as offensive to the Japanese.

Oh, no, you don't say?

Honestly, my political party is now the Regressionist Party.

I'm voting for a Stegosaurus for President next term.

 

[Yokai]

I am more amused that the two reporters in the video basically say the exact same thing word for word.

Reading off the same teleprompter, it seemed. They both seemed less-than-professional about it too...

OT: Just what we need, another reason for people to call Democrats radical extremists. [/sarcasm]
I guess there are rabid freaks on both sides. It's really hard to pick a side these days, there are just so many drawbacks.

The media live on trolls. Without trolls, the media would have to report the news.

It's this kind of shit that made me give up voting years ago.
