Micallef releases Trump print to download, by Deleted on Jan 31, 2017 20:57:01 GMT 1, and your point? Lets not forget the wall..... frankly if he does that right it could match the other great walls of the world and become a tourist attraction..... We have Trump towers so now we have the Trump Wall.... just branding exactly like Virgin! Yorkie Seriously, we going to continue this as there is a counter argument to any argument - as I said he got the popular vote and as such his right to govern with the appropriate checks and controls in place (which are imo) is called democracy! As are the rights of those who opposed him, and continue to do so, by expressing their opposition to him / marching against him / challenging his executive orders as unconstitutional etc......when an election is won the opposition and body politic doesn't shut up shop for the next 4yrs. They become the checks and balances of said democracy......if you don't want to hear them tune out and turn off.
Migrants welcome I agree if they enter a country legally and migrants welcome who do not commit crime and who are honest.
The migrants pretending to be children in Calais should have been arrested and prosecuted then kicked out when it was proven they are adults and so should Gary Lineker be ashamed of himself too.
Migrants who contribute in a positive way to society everyone supports.
Yet I find it odd that some cover up the fact that many crimes have been comitted by these migrants in EU countries and the rape statistics in Sweden and Norway etc prove there is a big problem with some peoples attitude and cultural values towards others.
Personally they should be dealt with and stop pandering to political correctness to ignore the elphant in the room and blame the victims.
To me it looks like the Trump ban is not thought out at all.
Terrorists have been French, British, Belgium and German pasport holders in Europe and Trump has not made a ban on Saudi Arabia.

Nothing like Hitler at all... I mean, he's not actually rounding them up and killing them yet... and your point?

My concern is with your comment regarding the right checks and balances.
What checks and balances?
Did I read correctly that he has ordered that the Court ruling that the ban on refugees is unlawful be ignored by officials? I might be wrong or may have misunderstood what I read. If that's right, is it not unconstitutional?
This is not intended to be rhetoric, but a genuine question.

I'm curious to know how a Syrian refugee can travel through safe countries to the USA?
There should be countries who accept genuine refugees.
Trump's reaction whether he took advantage of the situation or not could be because of the terrorist and other attacks cmitted in Europe by some who claimed refugee status and others who cames as migrants and turned out to be part of a jihadist global network.
Saudi takes no refugees and other rich arab countries also take no refugees.
Trump is not the biggest hypocrit in global politics.

This is a chart that has popped up on social media a few times.
I have no way of verifying the statistics. But if correct, they rather put the problem (and overreaction) in to some perspective (whilst I still have huge sympathy for the family of anyone who has lost a loved one to any form of violence).

Not really! Or then you'll have to admit that k-guy did then a rip-off of the cigarette packs produced by Duck-Art in 2008 including James Cauty, Pure Evil, Modal and Neverwork! We can go on and on for ever!
Micallef created three pièces for a charity, Peace one day, à month or so before the élection in the usa, so this is not the result of the vote but more of a warning, and by the look of it after 2 weeks in office, it could have been right!
I believe, and maybe am wrong, that making the image public was more intended for people to use it as a protest, on top of the hundreds of clever placards, and not to be printed on posh paper to hang at home or flip. But then this is how i see things!
Just saying...

You'd have a point if this piece alone was a good summary of his work, which of course it's not

And if i can add, i really don't think his objective was to discuss his work, but rather to discuss the all Trump situation, but then again, what do i know?!

What I do know it that he painted the originals for charity months ago and made the prints free for all... I don't understand why everyone is seeing an issue with it.

If you want my opinion (and its only my opinion) he is doing exactly as he said he would - hats of to him for that.... he is not a 'career' politician but someone who clearly wants to make a difference and sees lots of issues to which he believes he has a solution.
I hope that this does give you some context and answers your question.
Back to art - as i said - bored of the stuff coming out about trump now as none of it is new.... actually this piece of work is pretty lame in my opinion, slow to come out and if they really felt like this then it should have been issued over a week ago.

I don't think so. K Guy painted fag packets with alternative wording on them. He doesn't then monopolise fag packets. Micallef painted Trump's face on a fag packet. Both are using the health warning in a different way. Not even close to plagiarism in my eyes.

The migrants pretending to be children in Calais should have been arrested and prosecuted then kicked out when it was proven they are adults and so should Gary Lineker be ashamed of himself too.
If scenes like the photo below (Syria 2016) were happening in my hometown every day I'd try everything I could to build a life away from it including lying about my age if it meant safe passage into another country. Those of us who have not had to live through bombings have no comprehension of the trauma that those who have are going through. Some of the human beings targeted by the media as people to have "lied about their age" were actually translators, etc. I wish all of the luck in the world to anybody who can escape alive.

Micallef releases Trump print to download, by bagpuss on Feb 1, 2017 12:30:20 GMT 1, My concern is with your comment regarding the right checks and balances. What checks and balances? Did I read correctly that he has ordered that the Court ruling that the ban on refugees is unlawful be ignored by officials? I might be wrong or may have misunderstood what I read. If that's right, is it not unconstitutional? This is not intended to be rhetoric, but a genuine question. I'm curious to know how a Syrian refugee can travel through safe countries to the USA? There should be countries who accept genuine refugees. Trump's reaction whether he took advantage of the situation or not could be because of the terrorist and other attacks cmitted in Europe by some who claimed refugee status and others who cames as migrants and turned out to be part of a jihadist global network. Saudi takes no refugees and other rich arab countries also take no refugees. Trump is not the biggest hypocrit in global politics.
This is not accurate information. Saudi Arabia has taken over 500k Syrian refugees and the UAE 250k. Lebanon as takin in 1.5m and Jordan 1.2m but these are not 'rich' Arab nations. The US has provided sanctuary for only 16k refuges and has now put a 'no entry' sign up on its boarders. I can't really comment as a UK citizen as we have only resettled around 6k. Pretty poor for two powerful and wealthy nations.

Micallef releases Trump print to download, by AoT Framing on Feb 2, 2017 13:12:32 GMT 1, I am not disagreeing with your point - but he chose to make it a 'download' way after. Yorkie Yes.... after hundreds of people had been contacting him and asking if it would be released.

Micallef releases Trump print to download, by AoT Framing on Feb 2, 2017 13:17:43 GMT 1, Anyone else see this as a rip off k-guy fag packets from a few years ago ? i though Micallef had a bit more originality although i I do agree with his point - and it has provoked discussion, which I think was he objective so not all bad I don't think so. K Guy painted fag packets with alternative wording on them. He doesn't then monopolise fag packets. Micallef painted Trump's face on a fag packet. Both are using the health warning in a different way. Not even close to plagiarism in my eyes.

If that's right, is it not unconstitutional? This is not intended to be rhetoric, but a genuine question. The president was elected on a set of policies and to me, he seems to be just executing these policies (in my opinion). Is he causing confusion - I suspect so but there are many checks and balances as to what he can and cannot do and believe me there are many people in the USA who study this and have far more knowledge than I - because this is so public and such high profile there are people waiting to see him step out of line in terms of his authority and then they will put him back in. www.usconstitution.net/consttop_cnb.htmlwww.reference.com/government-politics/president-s-power-limited-972c1ecb7fe5ef30If you want my opinion (and its only my opinion) he is doing exactly as he said he would - hats of to him for that.... he is not a 'career' politician but someone who clearly wants to make a difference and sees lots of issues to which he believes he has a solution. I hope that this does give you some context and answers your question. Back to art - as i said - bored of the stuff coming out about trump now as none of it is new.... actually this piece of work is pretty lame in my opinion, slow to come out and if they really felt like this then it should have been issued over a week ago. Yorkie If you wish to continue this debate then lets PM each other!
25% of registered voters voted for Trump. 26% of registered voters voted for Clinton. 49% didn't vote.
So there's no mandate. If he was a true man of the people he'd work to unite the country rather than shoving feces down peoples throats, much of which is actually desired by his cronies not the small percentage that voted for him.

Micallef releases Trump print to download, by Deleted on Feb 2, 2017 19:16:34 GMT 1, The migrants pretending to be children in Calais should have been arrested and prosecuted then kicked out when it was proven they are adults and so should Gary Lineker be ashamed of himself too. If scenes like the photo below (Syria 2016) were happening in my hometown every day I'd try everything I could to build a life away from it including lying about my age if it meant safe passage into another country. Those of us who have not had to live through bombings have no comprehension of the trauma that those who have are going through. Some of the human beings targeted by the media as people to have "lied about their age" were actually translators, etc. I wish all of the luck in the world to anybody who can escape alive.
I agree that victims of war zones should flee and be helped by all countries.

Quite a few posing as children were not even from Syria. They are not refugees. I agree that victims of war zones should flee and be helped by all countries. |
