Harley riding fuckwits being their usual selves

"Upmost" isn't a word, morons.

See, apologies count for shit with some people.

Perhaps instead of looking for spelling mistakes you could take on board the sincerity of the words.

[Katman]

Did they apologise about the disruption at Taihape as well?

What disruption was that then?

you got ya cobber/client on speed dial?

So we can't question anything? Surely a punker can understand that?

I question everything, that was not my point. My point is people get too offended too quickly and then we end up with a society like we have got now. If people could stop being all offended and pissed off about shit like this, then the place would be a lot healthier for everyone. Sure you have to notice things you do not like, but when that becomes your point of attraction, you stay there and do not move forward. Personally I prefer to move forward and become unstuck.

They change their phone numbers that often I don't even try to keep up.

and 20 years ago ... nobody gave a flying fuck about ANZAC day. Why all the PC bullshit now ...

20 years ago plenty if not more people gave a damn about ANZAC day. Our population has increased by 25% since then so of course more people attending plus its easy news for the media.

But back then I remember some twat in a ricer with loud exhaust driving around town on the edge of the dawn service... didn't make the news cause no one had cellphone cams or twitter...
Each one I've been to has always been different, from cenotaph guard in cadets to just attending as member of public.
I find it plausible that these guys made an error, at least they did tender an apology.

What does annoy me is many people using evidence Anzac attendance via pics and social media posts as some kind of personal validation... I wonder if they are going for the right reasons. Too me its just something you do (attend) when you feel the need and remember them at other times too... I was also offended by the number of people taking cellphone pics during the ceremonys too, there are professionals from the media there to record the occasion.

Typical KB'r. This is all about knocking Harley's. Like Katman say's . No one has the facts. As FJRider mentioned Anzac day is now the new cool.
How many of those bashing the guy's that offended no one except sentement of the occasion. Want all this freedom of information crap, and are probably on facebook. I support the "Need to Know" and simply keep your opinions to your self. Those who's day it is did. Hiding behind a keyboard like most do on here do and not getting and practicing what they preach

I'd say one of the reasons why some people got so offended was because Anzac day means a lot to them. Take Mom for example, she played at two services so it's obviously not just a passing interest.

Betya Ed does.

I've been disappointed by the amount of commercial interest that this ANZAC Day has attracted.

People making big profit out of commemorative t-shirts seems wrong to me.

But it never made the (Politically correct) News ...

I'm surprised it didn't get it's own thread.

People do not seem to have much of a reason at all for getting offended these days if you ask me, I think we must be the most offended generation yet.
But being offended is a choice, and if someone chooses to be offended. then that is their drama, and should not in my opinion be the cause of a mass offending. How many people from this site where there today when these dudes rocked up? If you can get offended by the actions of a group of people who in no way make it personal to you, then you are taking life way too seriously and probably need a big joint and a shag or 2.

Ahhh, but that is just the beginning. Someone somewhere is rubbing their hands together with glee at all the cash that the "remembrances" bring in.
