> Ethnic minorities in the UK are not represented by the press. With only 0.2% black and 0.4% Muslim journalists in this country, he says, it is not surprising that reporting of minorities is negatively skewed. We need more representation in the media at all levels.
*gasp* all this FAKE NEWS is coming out about minorities committing crime, which is rallying white people together in a nazi like collective to vote in their interests and not a bunch of foreigners living here. SHUT IT DOWN GOY SHUT IT DOWN GIVE NIG NOGS THE MEDIA OUTLETS REEEEEEEEEE
Christopher Lee
wouldn't it be very hard for them to kill each other with swords in full armor like that? also wouldn't it be common for the swords to break against the armor with the smithing methods they had back then?
Julian Campbell
>our coverage of minorities is too negative, so we need more of them in the press because they will write positive things about themselves
Evan Harris
the armour isn't meant to be easy to penetrate. It is armour.
Luke Rivera
Stop it with the HATE FACTS!
Jackson Baker
yeah but i feel like it would be damn near impossible to penetrate with a sword from the 1400s or whatever
Christopher Sullivan
Can British whites trust ethnic minorities? Especially the millions of them on BBC every day? Seriously looking at bong news and tv you would think niggers are half the population over there.
Kayden Roberts
Minorities have a better result from the agenda that the press is driving than white people ever will.
Xavier Wood
ah yes, I'm sure if British news had at least 20% Muslim journalists they would give a fair and balanced reporting on Islamic affairs
Brody Allen
Can anyone?
Ian Foster
That's not what swords are for. A halberd would be more useful against armor but stabbing someone you threw on the ground through the visor would work too.
Juan Martinez
To be fair I've watched your news and you have the same thing.
The BBC and Guardian just need to die quickly.
Charles Lee
Looking at our historical programs you'd think nogs were always half the population stretching back to the Middle Ages and Rome. It's an utter fucking farce.
James Baker
bix nood
Jason Hill
Unfortunately, the Guardian is nowhere near dying thanks to the AutoTrader shekels. They could keep printing their garbage at a loss for decades. Ditto for the BBC since they're funded by the tax payers.
I recall seeing some old drawings of knights holding their swords by the blade and using the crossguard like a warhammer
Jace Baker
Fair? Fucking send em back to Africa and fuckitstan. That's Anglo clay they are on, sounds even more fair this way
Caleb Miller
Longswords
Jackson Torres
More often, they'd use the pointy bit on weak spots.
Hudson Perry
>What if the mega-rich just want rocket ships to escape the Earth they destroy? Would love this to be quite honest with you
Leo Stewart
So kick out the most overrepresented ethnic group in favor of less represented ones.
Oh wait that won't happen because the most overrepresented ethnic group are jews.
Nathan Jackson
would they cut their hand from holding it on the blade? how sharp did they keep their swords?
Angel Roberts
>With only 0.2% black and 0.4% Muslim journalists in this country, he says, it is not surprising that reporting of minorities is negatively skewed.
1) The reporting is skewed TOWARD your causes thanks to ideologically blinkered journalists.
2) How many fucking % are you then? Blacks in the US demand representation when they have more than their proportional demographics represented at the Oscars, and in reviews of top earning actors and oscar winners, in the last couple of decades.
"Representation" is a scam.
Women demand quotas even though they're the majority (by some margin now) diploma holders.
"Diversity" = no white men.
Aaron Johnson
What they can do is leave.

>which is rallying white people together in a nazi like collective to vote in their interests and not a bunch of foreigners living here
Always baffles me that people have problems comprehending this. Even if I ignore the "I am white too so it is in my own interest" part: Why the shit should I ever vote against the interest of the overwhelming majority just to pander to a handful of people? They are literally irrelevant in the larger picture.
Adrian Garcia
Sharp as the devil himself, but you can hold the sword by the blade and strike with the guard kind of like a mace. Mostly used if your opponent was in "full" plate and you had no hammer.
Kevin Walker
was it common for them to cut themselves when doing this or did they have some kind of mail or something protecting their hands?
Evan Wilson
The technique depicted is called half swording, and you can actually grab the blade of a sword without cutting yourself, so long as you don't allow the blade to slide in your hands.
Lincoln Barnes
As I understand it, longswords didn't have sharp edges on the lower section of the blade. Even then you wouldn't be able to just cut through a chain mail glove, you could grab it with adequate protection.
>wouldn't it be very hard for them to kill each other with swords in full armor like that?
You didn't really kill them. You took them as hostages, because everyone who could afford full body plate was loaded enough to pay a nice chunk of ransom.
The killing of knights only started later whenmore mercenaries and so on got involved who simply couldn't ask for ransom. Don't remember the name of the battle anymore or which faction fucked up, but there was one engagement between the French and the British were one side fucked up their deployment and the cavalry kept pushing the infantry forwards into the firing zone of the archers and had the infantry first turn on their cavalry and then had the cavalry commit to an already botched attack because they had lost too many to just pull out at that point. That was pretty much the turning point because the battle didn't go as planned so there was no way to stop the peasants from just storming the battlefield and slaughtering all the fallen knights to loot their corpses.
Henry Garcia
>the press >asking if minorities can trust the press With self awarenees so lacking, who at all could trust them?
