Today in the US congress a german diplomat mentioned the problem about anti-semitisam in Europe and the US and on the topic was a Croatian Rock singer called M.Perkovich Thompson, couse on his concert in Zagrebt there was use of faschist simbols from Croatias darker days (http://www.croatianhistory.net/etf/et112.html#jugo go here a bit down if you see Avenue sign go a bit up)

What they didn't mention that the same songs he used in New York a few months later in 2007, the NY cardinal aproved the concert and there was no use of faschist simbols.
But no one mentioned it.

All sorts of modern day 'edgy' types are delving back to history's bleaker, darker moments to find something that's offensive - that way we KNOW they're cool because, gosh doodle it, they just don't care what 'Da Man' thinks.

It's why you also have nine year old Americans calling me "A Euronigger, filthy Irish paddy cúnt, go fúck a potato" on Halo 3. I have to admit. They're inventive.

We need something to be offensive, but we're having to really stretch out our imaginations as we become increasing bored by everything.

Just offend them back with present events. That kind of type usually goes completely nuts if you insinuate in any way that their country isn't perfect and superior. :P

Rabid, CodeCat first of he actully said that he likes Croatia the way it is and he doesnt see it perfecter or superiour then other nations.
Second his songs seem to have a two meaning so you can not tell if he's talking about the 1941. Croatian troops/mass murderers or about the 1991. Croatian defenders who were busting theire balls to defend Vukovar, his saying that his song are about patriocy dont clear the shroud.
And third you should look wher he lives, like evary other normal person wife, two kids, the only wierd thing in his house is a picture of Ante Gotovina.
