For example we cant go to India and wear shoes in holy places, walk around in them head uncovered and must treat cows as holy and in the same breath we could and would get locked up for saying anything bad about Hinduism or indeed any holy or ethnic group in their country. Yet with the same breath they can come here and do all of the afore mentioned in our fair land and get paid for doing it at the same time. Whether that's right or wrong is not up for discussion, but discussions cause arguments, facts solve them.
In the olden days we spoke out on such a subjects freely,e but the likes of Blaire and his cronies make us all look like twats if we even dare to air our views. What is good for the goose is also good for the gander. In the past my dad colloquially referred to blacks as darkies, thank god he isn't here now as he would be hung drawn and quartered, but the reason why I mentioned it was that he saw no malice in using such terminology. Do gooders today have internal views that are never aired and in many cases, they never match what comes out of their mouths. We are becoming a society of politically correct puppets. So for you to say your views are right and we are wrong, what you mean to say is that what you were taught and believe may not match up to our views so nobody will ever reign supreme on either issue.
