Harry isn't some run-of-the-mill working class stiff's kid--he's part of the British Royal Family and because of that, he's held to a higher standard.<br /><br />After American troops liberated Europe and the death camps at Auschwitz and Buchenwald, the world said "never again".<br /><br />With the growth of far-right nationalism in the form of the British Nationalist Party and the specter of hatred and racial superiority never too far away--Harry should have exercised respect for those who suffered humiliation and extermmination at the hands of a brutal murderer--certainly not a character a member of Britain's royal family should be emulating.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01763876658345223153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9263500.post-1105738316105003112005-01-14T16:31:00.000-05:002005-01-14T16:31:00.000-05:00I wish I could claim the origination of Cappy C'pi...I wish I could claim the origination of Cappy C'piece, but someone more clever than I used it prior (wish I knew who was the inventor of the term).
