Germy1979 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 What the hell!? I thought forums were bad! Now there are extremists? Guess 5 year old technology finally sent them over the top... But Panasonic?.. Had to come from Personal View. Edit: Had to edit this... I really hope nobody got hurt, seriously. But why the hell has the whole world went apeshit lately? Riot motherf-ckers!?!?

Anil Rao Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 It's all about those islands the Japanese purchased from the owner of them and the Chinese who say they belong to China, but looking at the way the Chinese are behaving and their spiel from the reporters on the street, burning anything Japanese... it's all ridiculous. There is so much anger in the world today, people look for any reason to (forgive the pun) blow up, what's up with all that? Watching Pannys building on fire, could mean another delay to the GH3 then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some real estate D bag makes an underground youtube flick that nobody would probably have ever known about until they made it a global event, - and the first response is to burn a flag & kill some infidels....man....perhaps they haven't seen Southpark... And now it's spreading like a violent fad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germy1979 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 We should really consider the outsourcing of camera production to another area? #Earthquakes #Tsunami's #Random Riots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markm Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I think there has always been historical differences between China and Japan. China though is really becoming a concern as a super economy helmed by a dictatorship. Global warming was damaging the planet before china's industrial revolution NOW it is accelerating it massively. We in the UK go on about increasing the size of a single airport. China in a year will build 80. The reason why China has become so big as because as consumers we buy as cheap as we can So our own manufacturing and working classes become unemployed Most of the money goes to china as we import cheap goods and then the money we save on those cheap goods go in taxes to pay for the working class unemployed while at the same time destroying the planet. How clever is that? All our governments need to do is put an import duty on cheap goods from china to level the playing field and the problem goes away. We have so called religions murdering people in their name We have religions who poo poo global warming. We have religions telling people not to use contraceptives. We have massive religious families expanding and spreading their word. We have western governments trying to control and takeover everything. Is there any hope? At least we'll be able to record the end of the world in glorious detail.
