"yes, they feature everything you say they do, but not hatred. Brooks himself lost relative in the gas chambers, I doubt very much if he would find humour depicting scenes of them in his movies."

...and yet he features characters that would gas and torture Jews. He played Torquemada himself ("You can't Torquemada anything..."), a man under whose leadership thousands of Jews were burned and tortured.

Sure, they are just characters in a farse, but so is Sir Peter. I'm sure when Slim Pickens was blaring out racial slurs and they were lynching the black sheriff in Blazing Saddles you didn't jump up and rant at the screen.

I can see people being put off by Sir Peter, but frankly arguing with him is like arguing with a character in a Mel Brooks movie. People wander in, say WTF!!, and then realize he is a fictional character. The difference now is that a number of people refuse to calm down.

I do not argue with the peter any longer...I blacklisted him...therefore causing him to not exist any longer. I am arguing about what he stands for and the hrm he is doing by being alive.

"I am arguing about what he stands for and the hrm he is doing by being alive.'

He isn't alive...not a bit more than Torquemada in "History of the World, Part 1".

Manopeace unfortunately they will never understand the issues we are talking about here because they havent experienced them. When it touches something that has caused them suffering, then lets see how they react. I do not or ever wish harm on anyone. Unfortunately without experience sometimes people will never understand, they can think they know but truely they will never know.

Not funny? Odd, considering his movies are considered some of the funniest ever.

Bakerstreet maybe you can sit there and laugh but when the issues that this creature hit a home nerve then you have to understand that they are going to cause a reaction. These are very serious and sensitive issues for people such as myself and Manopeace and Im sure many others, and to be made fun of is not something that is going to have me especially sit back or ignore.

And for all intense and purpose Bakerstreet neither are you.

As manopeace said Brooks himself lost relatives to the gas chambers. I don't think you can really pretend that your reaction to Sir Peter is somehow universal among those groups he targets. If you don't have the ability to deal with things, even distasteful things, in any other way than outrage and sadness, then you are missing out on a big part of life.

"And for all intense and purpose Bakerstreet neither are you. "

That's just the sort of thing I would have expected from people who can't seem to differentiate. In the end you just make up reality anyway. You just go on living with your delusion that there is a sadistic British aristocrat out there getting fisted by his Thai maid.

I feel sorry for both of you, and frankly neither of you are really worth the time that has been devoted to trying to change your mind. Frankly I find Sir Peter more valueable than you to the site as a whole at this point, simply because he is able to function among other people, and apparantly you cannot.

If I had the filter option, I might filter Sir P., but I would most certainly filter you. I'm sorry to be harsh, but your behavior concerning this is ridiculous.

Phoenixboi...you are right. Perhaps people have to experience the brunt of these "jokes" to know the seriousness of them. I guess, we Jews, homosexuals, blacks, Muslims, or any other minority have to fend for ourselves agains the peters in this world.
I stated before that I will stand with you Phoenixboi, I trust you will stand with me as well.
Shalom!

OMG You have been trying to change my mind all this time? You are telling me that it is actually funny that my entire family was gassed by the nazis? You are trying to tell me thats its OK for a moron to advocate the gassing of homosexuals?
You are telling me that just because he is not serious about these things its OK for him to say them?
I suppose its OK to phone in phony bomb threats to airports or theatres, watching with glee as the people run in panic...after all, its only a joke, not serious, so its OK.
Sorry Bakerstreet that you have not succeeded in changing my mind. Sorry to see someone that I thought was intelligent enough to know the difference between humour and incitement to hatred continue to defend a concept that its OK.
Its NOT OK BakerStreet....6 million people cry out from their graves that its NOT OK!

I dont need you to feel sorry for me Bakerstreet. And why are you wasting your time here? Obviously YOU have nothing better to do. If you are so over this thread why do you keep coming back to it?

I stated before that I will stand with you Phoenixboi, I trust you will stand with me as well.

Yeah Manopeace I think we have alot in common, we understand the injustices caused by the character that this peter has caused in this world. And because noone stands up against them they are allowed to continue and this is dangerous. Therefore I stand with you manopeace against this creature of hate.

Phoenixboi ...if you wernt so far away I'd invite you over for lunch right now!

Its NOT OK BakerStreet....6 million people cry out from their graves that its NOT OK!

Manopeace to him it is only book knowledge. He seems intelligent because of his use of words and his ability to manipulate debates to suit himself, but it is all book knowledge. From experience comes life.

Bakerstreet, unfortunately you do not and will not ever understand.
