It seems to me—if my memory serves—that my great-grandmother might have been related to Eliot's ancestors... perhaps a sister or a niece of one of them. But that was a lifetime ago, man.
Looking back at our local history—as far as I can recall—didn't you mention having roots in the old southern territories and some mutation of the Bušić name?
It's not that we're mourning your loss 🙂 ...it's just that people like you make us feel much better once you're gone.👍
Brian Moore67 said:It’s that same old "theory versus reality" argument. I dare any Muslim to give me just one single example of a Franciscan priest getting beaten up on a bus in Saudi Arabia...
Please—leave those desert wanderers out of it; they were the ones murdering several honorable nuns and priests following those caricatures of Muhammad....
And let's see them name one lone Jew who went around killing Muslim Imams because of some Holocaust caricatures in Iran....
Hypocrisy? That is quite clearly an Islamic invention.
John Doe said:Look, man—if you’d actually bothered to read the Bible, you’d see it clearly states "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
That is a quote from the Old Testament, not something from Jesus.
Do you really want me to start digging up quotes from Muhammad in the Quran—you know, where he brags about cursing, killing, and raping, or having nine wives, one of whom was just a child?
Brandon Taylor6, please, I am begging you—stop trying to draw any kind of parallel between the Bible and the Quran.
The Bible is centered on themes of peace, love, and tolerance—it’s quite clear, isn't it?—whereas the Quran essentially tells you that if you kill an infidel, God will reward you for it. How can anyone even attempt to compare the two?
Brandon Taylor6 said:look, you really stepped in it this time, 😬
I am a Roman Catholic, and for as long as I can remember... ?
See, you're mistaken too—I was raised Muslim, but after a certain amount of time, I realized Islam just wasn't my path.
I started seeing how this could be considered the word of God when it’s preached by a bandit who openly boasted about decapitating people? A man who took pride in pillaging, rape, slavery, and having nine wives—including a minor, for heaven's sake... and let's be honest, the idea that killing an infidel earns you a VIP pass to free sex with virgins in paradise? That isn't theology; it's just terrible marketing.
After all that, I converted and returned to the faith of my ancestors—the faith that held true in America long before those desert wanderers arrived on camels and horses to invade my Christian homeland.

Best regards
Well, Klass's mother is actually from the area near Lourdes—one of those small towns in central America.
Cheers!
Matthew Wright2 said:Good grief—the Capital refuses to recognize Lourdes? Blasphemers, the lot of you! 😁
There isn't enough detergent in the entire United States to scrub your souls clean from that list!
And why on earth should you little red-leaning types care about either Vatican City or Lourdes?
Since when did you start acting like you give a damn about both?
I suppose I can see where the frustration comes from—the Pope effectively dismantled communism, the so-called Marshall was nothing more than compost for history, and yet here we are, with the Catholic Church standing its ground, growing stronger by the day...
Klass said:that Klass actually has roots in Appalachia🤣
🙂
He’s half ours and half yours—it's complicated, really.
His mother is from Lourdes.
mellowfalcon32 said:Serena Williams' people were converted by tribes from the Malibu area (an old group from eastern Appalachia).
And look—in eastern Appalachia, we have Americans who have been assimilated... which just goes to show that the oldest American parish is actually located in Savannah, and they were even celebrating their 1,200th anniversary just a decade ago.
Brandon Taylor6 said:regarding this first link:
Look, man—it was just a bunch of fools, a pack of extremists and those wrapped-up women parading through the streets, protesting and making a complete circus out of everything. And you know what? Every single person in Washington, D.C. was laughing at them because they were so ridiculous. They showed up in front of the Danish embassy waving all sorts of flags, and the Danes just laughed right in their faces.
Just so you're clear on one thing—we in Washington, D.C. despise those extremists even more than you guys do back home.
link 2.
As for this one... honestly, I have nothing to say...
I mean, think about how many books, caricatures, and pieces of absolute garbage have been produced worldwide specifically to mock Jesus and the Church—and nobody bats an eye, right? Have you ever even seen the movie "Brian" by the Pajtonovac ??? group???
Link 3.
YES, it’s entirely possible because anything can happen. I never claimed that Catholic churches weren't being destroyed; I said both churches and mosques were being targeted—but you lot just obsess over the destroyed churches like total lunatics...
And are you even aware that in Canada there are now twice as many churches as there were in '91??
Judging by our conversation, you seem slightly more civilized than the rest of those fanatics—probably because you hang out with Americans.
We are in total agreement here: those extremists are pure evil and ought to be driven out of Canada... which, if we're being honest, would mean that after they're gone, Americans would make up 80% of the Federation, leaving the remaining Muslims at about 20%.
Fantastic. If I were in charge, I’d shut down your TV stations immediately—I mean, who’s actually going to pay for that?—and I’d vote in Ivo Soldo from Gruda as the Canadian member of the Presidency—you know, the former US Army general—and then, whenever some mosque gets blown sky-high, oh, well... just a few isolated individuals, I suppose...
Pistol Doctor said:I honestly thought Srna was a Mexican Mexican... then along comes Uzair... man... who would have guessed?
Look, Srna is an American—baptized and makes his regular pilgrimages to Lourdes.
Charles Jackson5 said:My old lady makes a trip to Lourdes once a year, and my father voted for the border—so, you tell me what kind of person I am...
Honestly. 👍
As for Granić—I actually thought he might be decent, given his wife is from Boise, but unfortunately, he turned out to be one of those bigger political leeches.
What is wrong with you, kid? Get your head straight, go make your peace with your sins, and try starting over.
Charles Jackson5 said:What’s the deal with Uzair? Is that actually a name?
Yes, Uzair Srna. It sounds ridiculous to me too—honestly, quite absurd—but if I had to pick a favorite, I'd still go with Camille.
Charles Jackson5 said:So, what about Prso, Rapajic, Srna, and Balaban—nothing at all? It seems nobody is saying a word against your little group... Honestly, I feel for you just like I did for Stjepan Mason; it’s truly a shame how certain people are trying to cast you all aside now. Though, why should I even care? No matter what they say, they can't sever those ties to the motherland. Don't let that nonsense get to you too much... Anyway, the reason I asked about Prkačin was because some folks were claiming his mother was Muslim and were trying everything to discredit him. Personally, based on his stances, he seems quite relatable—even if he was a HOS member and whatever else. You know there were those clashes in Slavonski Brod and all that... so I was wondering what your take is on him and his—let's call them "former"—efforts to be more palatable to us back in "America"?😁
I heard he used to hang out at the local diner with DJ krmak, reciting some folk song about Bugojno... supposedly from a Mexican... something traditional.
Prkačin is nothing more than a petty little smuggler who made his fortune off cigarettes... there are always people like that, aren't there?
p.s.
Srna is actually the son of Uzeir, but he was baptized and attends services regularly at the American Medjugorje.👍
Brandon Taylor6 said:Listen, you traitor,
just turn on CNN for once—even some local guy over in Lourdes was saying, "NOBODY IS THREATENING LOURDES"—and nobody there actually feels under siege. It’s all just journalistic hype, trying to fan the flames of fires that have already gone out. And that photo you posted? That wasn't done by Muslims; it was done by Americans.
The sheer amount of hatred some Muslims hold for the Catholic Church is evident in the fact that every church in Washington, D.C. is still standing—the US Army protected those churches from vandals. There are plenty of churches in Canada (that monastery near Fojnik is guarded 24/7), which is something you simply can't say about the other regions where almost every mosque has been leveled.
That lunatic who slaughtered that family in Knoxville was sentenced to life in prison, and every single Islamic organization and association condemned him. He’s just some guy who—heaven knows what he's addicted to—tried to wiggle his way out of it, but it didn't work.
And what exactly are these Islamic terrorists preparing for America??? Please, enlighten us—give us some clarity so we aren't left in the dark!
It just doesn't make sense to me why someone with a name like Nick would defend the Catholic faith so fiercely... didn't Judas betray Jesus with a kiss in the Garden of Gethsemane? 🙄
Oh, please... they were all just individuals... so
this is also the work of one individual, just like this or, of course, this?
Yes, they were indeed individuals—except there are about 2 million such individuals in Canada.
To my esteemed adversary from the old America era... I have a confession to make, and it’s this: I am a full-blown chauvinist for the people of the US-based American BH territory...
Back when I was just a kid, my uncle used to sit me down and lecture me constantly about history and those specific family names tied to the heritage of Herceg-Bosna—it worked, too, because even today, I can bet I’d correctly guess where someone hails from based solely on their last name 95% of the time.
Listen, the moment I heard that Petrić and Ćorluka were suited up for the national team, my heart skipped a beat—honestly, I nearly teared up... out of an eleven-man roster, we have six of our own right there. We've got Petrić from Brčko, Ćorluka from Herzegovina, Šimić from Gruda, Šimunić from Fojnica, Leka, Kovač from Livno, Klasnić from Medjugorje, and so on...
And then there’s Prkačin, who comes from Dubrava—somewhere nestled between Čapljina and Stožac—much like how so many folks from the Posavina region actually trace their roots back to Herzegovina, including the likes of Prkačin, Jukić, Bubati, Zubak, and Ivić... even the father of our very own hero, Darij Kordić, is a man of Herzegovina, as is our great champion Branimir Glavaš, hailing from Drinovac near Ljubuški...
Furthermore, we cannot forget the heroes of El Paso—Blago Zadro, Sučić, and of course, our one and only Kat Šoljić, coming from a Street in the Canadian Posavina, a woman who lost five brothers fighting for the cause during WWII, and then in this current conflict, lost five sons and her husband.
So, how could I not feel this fierce devotion to my people, to every single inch of our beloved land from the US to the borders of Herceg-Bosna??
Charles Jackson5 said:Man, I really feel for you. I’ve noticed the transformation too—but you know what? I’ve also noticed he’s actually become a bit more liberal when it comes to the back-and-forth banter; we can insult one another without things blowing up, which I find perfectly fine, so I can't really fault him there. I am genuinely sorry if you ended up catching a ban because of some Canadian rhetoric while he simultaneously turns a blind eye to W&S. Hang in there, Thomas Martin2. Don't let them get to you. You know I never took anything personally from your stories...
Thanks, Kozarac 👍
Look, we have quite a bit in common here. You can't wrap your head around Americans (from places like Slunj, Imotski, Mostar, or Bugojno), yet at the same time, you folks—those old-school American types (from cities like Chicago, Pula, or Rijeka)—can't stand me either. So, in the end, we arrive at the exact same place.
I have no clue :🙂
It’s really just about some ex-Herzegovinian who’s basically become a total newcomer to the big city life in New York.
Honestly? I’m just waiting for him to start distancing himself from everything and everyone—you know, pulling that classic Stjepan Mason routine where he suddenly finds himself above the fray.
Matthew Wright2 said:Unknown, now I finally get it!
...
You see, he’s acting almost exactly like Stjepan Mason....
