I'd hardly consider the IRA to be "neo-nazis", even if you did count them you could maybe hold up to like a percent of the comparable crimes from non-whites at most, and that's probably a vast over-estimate.

If you want to miscorrect language, press 6.

Miscorrect? AHAHAHAH. So, according to you people "observe (somebody's) (to) live", they don't "observe (somebody's) living"? Really? And I'm not even focusing on the advanced grammar part of the issue here, namely the gerund requiring a possessive case for the word preceding it, i.e. it should be "observe someone's living", not the weirdo construction "observe someone living".
You actually believe your retarded correction?
"observe someone living" = have a short glimpse at someone's life
"observe someone live" = have a complete insight into someone's life

Aside from miscorrect there is "there are yet different specimens to be studied" and "but are always looking".

I feel petty to correct people much but he has some kind of cringeworthy fuckup in every post so it's clear he is a semi-literate turkish retard.

Go troll someone who didn't study English grammar at university. You may manage to fool some people due to how degenerate English usage has become in the last couple of decades. Protip: just because it sounds right to your ear doesn't mean it is correct.

This particular issue is grammatically identical to how it works in Finnish, and unlike in English there is zero degeneration in popular usage, so there is absolutely zero confusion about this issue here and people here would cringe reading your bullshit. They don't even need to have studied English grammar, just knowing that it works the same way in English as it does in Finnish would be enough to make you look like a fucking tool.

Show me the grammatical rule that says you can have two verbs/predicates in a single clause? Like, I don't even. Only a fucking native Kwanzan could be that retarded.

For people with a limited understanding of the English language, here is a good summary of the correct use:
http://www.pearsonlongman.com/ae/azar/grammar_ex/message_board/archive/articles/00066.htm

Or here:
http://www.englishgrammar.org/verbs-perception/

Hear, see, watch, notice and similar verbs of perception can be followed by object + infinitive without to or object + -ing form.

There is usually a difference of meaning between the two structures.

The infinitive is used after these verbs when we want to say that we hear or see the whole of an action or event. The –ing form is used to suggest that we hear an action or event in progress.

So you "studied English grammar at university"? Don't use those diploma mills. It shows after a while.

You are like a librul quoting fake SCIENCE! to promote degeneracy. Just because there are some grammarians these days who choose to describe some retarded usage and pass it off as grammar doesn't mean one should take it seriously. Presumably you have heard of the difference between descriptive and prescriptive grammar, and have decided to side with the libruls as usual in advancing idiocy. Now stop wasting my time and crawl off to die - you worm - with a bbc in your butthole like a proper librul knows he should.

Heh. So that's how a grammar nazi looks when caught up in an error. Look up grammar rules for "words of perception", if you ever want to do a TEFL test or similar. These rules are part of it.

EDIT:



In any ordinary world, truths such as those about race spoken on interent forums would quickly have a snowball effect via word of mouth and activism, and before you knew it the Fourth Reich would arise.

Indeed, as far as you know, you should be worried about contingencies like that (the Mossad sure is). Remember the Third Reich? It wasn't impotent ranting, except in the beginning. It may seem like the world has always been securely in the hands of vapid nihilists like you, but assumptions like that don't impress people who know history.

Tee hee poopy poopy.

Quit being such a homophobe, shitlord. Ironic since it's only extreme beta cucks and literal faggots among the white male population who hold such retarded views. But then you are obviously some kind of rainbow diversity dindu since you are pretty much illiterate.

Please press one button only, thank you for your cooperation.

Creepy fox is proud about being easily herded zombie (always amusing to observe this aspect of conformism). Back in the 1930s, if your sort was a German you were cheering for the nazis, today you are cheering for the anti-nazis. The only thing that changes about you is the shade of yellow in your skull.

1967 Oxford English Dictionary is the only authority on the English language I recognize, sorry. I'll also accept Strunk & White but in several places I have to mark it with an asterixe.

There are English texts today that claim lesser and fewer are the exact same thing :prosper:

For Americans, there's Wilson Follett's classic from 1966. If only I didn't feel the pull of ebonics so strongly...

A declining white population is a problem no matter how you look at it. I am expecting east Asia (China) to take over world leadership if liberals succeed with their plans to "culturally enhance" the west.

This is a far too easy question if you look at the demographics about religion.
