i still can't work it out why the Legitimate Gangster's stopped all school bairns from commemorating rememberance day twenty odd years ago.
more popularly known as "poppy day" whilst in primary school, each of us was given a plastic poppy to pin onto our pinafores. and then the headmistress would explain the significance of the day during assembly.
it is a mighty disgrace that said Gangster's chose to ignore those who died defending the wee isle, at the hands of 'em bastard jap's during the second world war. to me, it's not only soldiers who should be remembered. but also those brave civilians who were tortured; blindfolded and then slaughtered by the firing squad once they had finished digging trenches that were to become their graves.
their crime? being of european or of chinese ancestry, or that they worked for the british. i lost two relatives to those fucking japs. and my granny had a narrow escape when said fucking japs knocked on every door, to take away and then rape and kill every single ethnic chink lass.
and that's also probable how a paternal aunt went missing.
oh and this horrific act by said fucking japs on ethnic chinese babies: throwing 'em up into the air and then speared 'em with their bayonet's. amazingly, the malays and indians were mostly spared.
that's why i go berserk at the mere sight of a jap 'ere on the wee isle.
regardless, said Gangster's just have to make sure wee islander's don't possess any lingering colonial hang up's do they?
