Wears a -blam!- costume + armband to a costume party. Just saw it on the news, kind amusing, no offense goweb or any one else in the UK (just in case).
Edit: -blam!- = former fascist political party before and after WWII, begins with "N" and ends with "I"

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Vella [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Smoke604 So Reginko, you actually support the idea that we are all plebs and underlings, who have no right to oppose a system that basically says "This family is better than everyone else, and you will worship them and call them 'Majesty'", just because they were born into it?[/quote] All your rights are in the constitution, the royal family cannot infringe on them. [/quote] I know that, what I said was regarding the idea or concept of monarchy. Call me strange if you want, but I do not want to be considered a 'subject' of the 'rightful monarch elected by god' or any of that -blam!-. I am a free person, and just because I was born in England does not give that dried up old skank known as the Queen the right to consider me and my family her 'subjects'. I have had many an argument with pro-monarchists in my time, and every single one of them has given across the opinion that members of the monarchy are better than the 'common people', and that it is completely fair for them to get all the benefits and respect they get, just because they descend from someone who ruled the country 500 years ago. The idea of a class or a caste system disgusts me- we are all equal, and have equal rights, and that includes no preferential treatment for a certain family. Edit: And this is all I will say on the matter- I have made my point, and do not want to carry on and end up getting my ass banned for being too political. [Edited on 1/14/2005 8:31:26 AM]
