In Reply to: What ridiculous propaganda! Another portrayal posted by tinear on March 18, 2005 at 17:03:07:
Didn't the 1982 film "Porkys" have a subplot about the prejudice facing a Jew in early 1960s Florida? And it has a "shower sequence", too!Please allow me to follow my silly joke with a more serious note:
While some historians suggest that 10 or even 20 million Africans died during the "Middle Passage," most think the number was closer to 1 or 2 million. That doesn't quite match the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust, but of course, the horrifying point of the "Middle Passage" was not to kill Africans.
Follow Ups:
tinear,I wrote my previous post waaaay too late in the evening...and titled it "tinear attacks "Porkys"! Please allow me to apologize for the use of your name. I do not mean the joke in the first part of the post as a personal attack on you, or for that matter, anyone else. My silliness would have been far better served had I titled my post "Next, we attack 'Porkys'!"
It is one thing to disagree with a person or have spirited debate with someone. I take a look at "Outside" and am stunned at the viciousness of the posts directed at people on all sides. And what is so strange is how informative and reasonable these same people are on other parts of the asylum! I know you and I disagree here and there on things, but I hope you understand that when I wrote, "tinear attacks 'Porky's'!", I had a smile on my face. Next time I will try to make that clearer with a LOL or :).
Take care and have fun!
