yea

2018-04-28 02:41:09 UTC  

Magna Carta was ours, wasn't it?

2018-04-28 02:41:15 UTC  

We made it that way so that future generations wouldnt have to live under the same circumstances

2018-04-28 02:41:24 UTC  

Magna Carta was England

2018-04-28 02:41:33 UTC  

Alright.

2018-04-28 02:41:43 UTC

Still, Right to free speech, Right to a speedy trial, without unnecessary delay, an impartial jury, to know who your accusers are, etc.

2018-04-28 02:42:19 UTC  

yeah I hate it but it is easy to default to using that site as an Encyclopedia...so sad as its not!

2018-04-28 02:42:25 UTC  

All of which were denied to the Dank.

2018-04-28 02:42:56 UTC  

i was a history and poly-sci major in college so i actively avoided wikipedia

2018-04-28 02:43:07 UTC  

partly cause i had too lol

2018-04-28 02:43:27 UTC  

yea he did get denied like all of those

2018-04-28 02:43:30 UTC  

Its like a tabloid..well that's the feeling I get when reading it.

It took less time to try Nazi war criminals.

2018-04-28 02:44:41 UTC  

Reminder that the Nazi's dropped their charges on the Fin

2018-04-28 02:46:02 UTC  

But the UK government wont because theyre on a misguided morally righteous crusade

2018-04-28 02:46:42 UTC  

Talking about Nazi's I watched this one a while back and its very interesting on how Japanese understand/view WWII and the Swastika. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qV7xbAVOY0

2018-04-28 02:47:20 UTC  

well for one thing, the Swastika wasn't created by the nazis - it was stolen.

2018-04-28 02:47:21 UTC  

I know that they did not even talk about WWII for years in their education system but damn.

2018-04-28 02:47:37 UTC  

pre-Nazi it meant Good Luck.

2018-04-28 02:47:44 UTC  

hardly any different from a horseshoe.

2018-04-28 02:47:59 UTC  

In fact, somewhere in my house (I couldn't find it)

2018-04-28 02:48:02 UTC  

very true but the symbolic understanding of it by the Japanese public was shocking to say the least

2018-04-28 02:48:22 UTC  

I've got a 'lucky coin' with 4 leaf clovers, horseshoes, and a swastika on it

2018-04-28 02:48:30 UTC  

its a hindu symbol right?

2018-04-28 02:48:41 UTC  

I was fairly certain, but still wanted to double check... the magna carta didn't concern ordinary individuals. It was a guarantee between, essentially, the upper class - the king and barons.

2018-04-28 02:48:53 UTC  

it was Buddhist symbol

2018-04-28 02:48:55 UTC  

Fins used it too

2018-04-28 02:49:02 UTC  

Yeah, I was thinking it was buddhist.

2018-04-28 02:49:13 UTC  

or hindu...damn now I need to find it on Wiki :P

2018-04-28 02:49:15 UTC  

jk

2018-04-28 02:49:43 UTC  

Buddhism was somewhat rooted in Hinduism anyway

2018-04-28 02:49:47 UTC  

so it may have been derivative.

2018-04-28 02:49:48 UTC  

its both

2018-04-28 02:49:51 UTC  

plus Janism

2018-04-28 02:50:19 UTC  

good to know, more for me to study..I love to study

2018-04-28 02:50:53 UTC
