WTF Belgium!?! The KKK and white supremacists march in parades here, but at least they don't dress up to make fun of us while doing it... At least those groups realize they're anti-Semitic, these particular Belgians are in denial, and I think it makes it that much worse.

I think it's always important to understand the motives behind such things and whether this is dressed up as something else when it is really a core group of scumbags trying to put their views across. Humour has evolved due to laws to protect minorities so they can be free to keep it in their little groups but doing it in public should be a matter for the law. The parade they had last year depicted hook-nosed men sitting atop piles of gold which is an obvious poke, and big whinge, about successful Jewish people that has always been used to stoke up hatred of them.
But I'm going to raise an eyebrow at any Israeli government minister complaining in any way about something like this given their illegal land grabbing and mistreatment of Palestinians. They also cry anti Semitism to try to shut down debate where it is clearly criticism of Israel which makes them part of the problem too.
I'm not sure I'm surprised by Spain since they seem to still think it's ok to have thugs for police as recent events have shown as well as imprison people for political reasons. But I would have expected Belgium to be more considerate to the past.
Some of our media see parallels between the rise of Hitler and Brexit. Perhaps they should be spending more time looking at countries that think this is acceptable and allow groups to parade giving Nazi salutes? All hate crimes here.

Yeah, I don’t condone all the policies put forth by Israel. But the people aren’t protesting against Israel, they’re just being racist.

OMG, what are you all feeding the cows in Yorkshire? If Alfred Hitchcock were alive, this would be his next movie. It's like something out of Stephen King. I didn't even know this was possible...

Wait until you see our sheep rolling over the cattle grids!!! https://yoursmiles.org/msmile/animal/m0286.gif
Re: Today’s headlines .........
That's nuts. I've been around calving cows, and I've never seen anything like that. I've even helped a one give birth. Usually aggressive cows like that are euthanized after the weening of the calf here in the US. All the American cows I've ever been around have been docile and stupid.
Geez, Terry. What do your sheep do to people?
The last time I was in the UK all I heard about what people doing things to sheep. Usually the Welsh were the butt of that joke...

This sad :( This study found that men posing with cats were less likely to get asked on dates :/
