AIBU in thinking that all readers (and writers) of the Daily Mail should be put to death?

[TiggyD]

Well?

Right-wing, over-reacting, paparazzi funding, health scare loving, minority hating sub-literature for busy bodies, racists and little Englanders who live in the past?

You can assume that the people in the BNP who can read both buy the Daily Mail.

Be nice; you just know that somebody at the Mail will read this

That does seem a tad harsh.

Many mner's read it, hence the plethora of links.

I can't stand it but there are a couple of people in my extended family that read it. Killing them would be harsh, I prefer mocking them mercilessly.

YABU, rude, misinformed and sheep like.

No they don't SawneyBeane they just know about the articles by some sort of special psychic link or something.

Have you ever seen a link on here that doesn't say "Now I don't agree with/read the mail, BUT".

If you don't read it, how do you know about it?

It depends if they can be rehabilitated and given a new identity or not...

I think that the death penalty is a touch harsh - I prefer the taking the piss approach.

YABU i read the daily mail and I am definately NOT a
'Right-wing, over-reacting, paparazzi funding, health scare loving, minority hating sub-literature for busy bodies, racists and little Englanders who live in the past'

YABU Get a grip. Have a and calm down.

I don't think Tethersend's idea of a new identity is a good one. They should have to stick with their original name so they can be tracked down and run out of town like common pygmies.

YABU two of my loveliest friends are hooked on the DM, one lives on benefits and the other is the offspring of immigrants

I have problems with most of it, but have to concede that the animal stories are nice - they always seem to have one or two in there

It depends where you stand on euthanasia. I know I'd rather some kind soul pulled the plug on me than live my life as a consumer of that kind of sub-human, hate-mongering bigoted bile. At the end of the day it could only be a kindness to end a miserable, paranoid, dreary existence somewhere in middle England hating everybody and everything.

"Have a and calm down."

Mmmmm...Jamular...

Possibly just reading The Daily Mail on a daily basis is punishment enough?

LOL at the sense of humour failure of those telling the OP she's ill-informed, undemocratic etc.

Shurely you don't all think the OP has sat down and done the costings on such a policy?

nah not the mail, but definitely the sun

LOL @ helyg!

YADNBU.

You don't have to read a paper to know exactly how insidious and bigoted it is....!

Well I don't like them but they do reflect (and encourage) what is already prevalent in our society. So I wouldn't put them up against the wall....but people should tell them and their readers where to stick their opinions.

Helyg - good point. Perhaps force feed a weeks worth of the Sun if they've been REALLY bad ?

I quite like it, if you ignore some of the hype. I use the website so I never actually buy it.

In the same way I dont brand everyone that reads 'The Sun' or 'The Guardian', I wouldnt make massive assumptions about everyone that reads The Mail.

YABU - an small minded - I hate to break this to you. Most papers have a bias....

But you can't deny that the DM is either racist or right-wing, or, indeed minority-hating.

I read the mail on Sunday, (DH HATES IT as he says there is no news in it)) but I am not right wing and try to be objective about all news I read- I find it really hard to find a newspaper I like reading they all seem to swing one way or the other, even our local rag is a disgrace.

Have tried the Times, but find it all a bit irrelevant to my own life(we live up north and are not public school people).

Would love a suggestion of a really good Sunday paper- not too highbrow, but not full of crap either, and it has to have a nice glossy section as well.
