> why are normans so horrible and unfriendly? billy the big-dicked conqueror did nothing wrong. harold godwinson was an ethnically half norwegian interloper who usurped the throne that his brother-in-law (edward the confessor) bequeathed to his (edward's) beloved first cousin william. the godwinson family supported the norwegian invaders during the reign of the house of kntlinga (house of the cnutes) who had stolen the birthright of the house of wessex (edward's house). the rightful royal family were driven into exile and some of them, including edward the future king, were given refuge and shelter in normandy by their noble cousins (the house of rollo/house of normandie). when edward died without an heir of his body he wanted either his brother son's son (who had been born in hungary where his father was in exile) or his ducal cousin william. harold godwinson stole the throne despite swearing on holy relics not to do so. a shameful, duplicitous, half scandinavian creature was harold so called "king" of the house of godwin.
