I have no vested interest in the Kosovo people, or the Serbian people, or the Bosnian people at all. I took offense to the fact that you brought up a war from the 90's as an argument against people downvoting you when you tried to defend the police who violated someone's human rights. The Serbians, the Bosnians, the Kosovars, I'm sure they were all equally guilty of war crimes during those wars. But don't use the deaths of these people as a way to shame us into taking your side.
- bkovacev 10y agoYou are right. They were. Serbs were at fault as well. Maybe the most. But that was not the reason I brought up the bombing - I brought it to show how grudges could affect someone's behavior. Just like it could have influence mine when I was checked, just like how it could influence anyone - even the US people. I never thought about shaming anyone - especially the US or you guys for the upvotes/downvotes.
- Kyrvin 10y agoIf it's true that you were not trying to shame anyone, then I'm sorry for my outburst. At the same time, you just threw a link in at the bottom of your post with the line "For the people that forgot". No explanation, no justification. It seems out of place. It literally has nothing to do with story. At all. That was the reason for my outburst.
- bkovacev 10y agoNo need to be sorry - we just misunderstood each other, although the wording was a bit harsh. You are right - I should have provided the context. I apologize. I'll remove the link. edit: cannot remove the link for some reason
- Kyrvin 10y agoMeh, it's probably best if it stays up anyways. Hopefully people will read my response to it and learn that overreacting is unhealthy.
