offensive photograph ID

Sort:

Just had the misfortune to play "aymenkhh". This persons photo ID is most offensive, it depicts a child urinating on an Israeli flag. This is not my flag but I find this image very, very offensive and does not belong on this web site.

It's a politcal statement. If you don't like it, ignore it.

Whatever happened to freedom of expression?

Thanks FES314. An appropriate Political statement would have been to post a pic of your own flag, not blatantly abusing that of another. Grow up!

If freedom of speech dictates that we can make a drawing of Mohammed, or trash their religion we should accept these type of political statements.

Thanks. I removed the avatar. There is no place for this on chess.com.

Crystal moon: thanks! Totally agree. Freedom of speech is most definitely not the issue.

I agree with 45saltre.  There are more appropriate ways to express one's views. Vulgarity and disrespect of others don't belong here.
