You mean extremists that belong to terrorist organisations, right? Suggesting that all muslims in the middle east do or support that is a dangerously ignorant statement.

Most religions demonise the gays, you can't pick on muslims for it when a good chunk of all religious people believe that homosexuality is a sin. Conversion therapy is a real and present danger and that's something that is purely western in nature.

If you're going to hate on a religion, hate on them all since a lot of the points you're hitting on is not exclusive to muslims.

Except he isn't correct about anything he's said about the UK. He knows nothing of UK culture or culture in general. Anybody who thinks that culture is a static thing doesn't understand what culture is.

Here's the full exchange:

“By the way, your daughter,” Stern said to Trump.

“She’s beautiful,” the brash businessman responded.

“Can I say this? A piece of ass,” Stern asked.

“Yeah,” Trump replied.

So rather than referring to her that way himself, he said that a "shock jock" on an R-rated radio show could say it.

The UK has no idea what migrants are legal or illegal so that is a null point

Good riddance

Maybe you have no culture - others of us do! The usual if you don't value something it doesn't exist nonsense. Speak for yourself - not the rest of us!

What is British culture that’s being threatened then?

If you don't FEEL it you don't have it. It shouldn't need pointing out unless of course people just take everything our culture offers for granted because they know nothing different.

That's the UK fault, without border control and id cards you can't do it properly

It's much more than that as anyone who actually understands would know. But as I say culture is something you feel - something that has shaped your life and understanding, that gives you rights and freedoms, that makes you feel comfortable with a sense of belonging and pride and a lot more...

And people coming here take that away from you?

How pathetic

[Tom4784]

Culture is history and tradition in part. It's not a feeling, it's certainly not something vague enough that you can deny someone's opinion on it by saying 'they don't understand.'

History and traditions are ever growing. It isn't overwritten, it just grows to encompass more and more aspects of living in Britain.

The whole idea that we are 'losing our culture' is as ignorant as when people are saying 'muslims are taking over'. It's just ignorant hysteria.

Culture isn't static, it's a dynamic constantly evolving thing. Curry and Kebabs are part of English culture, and yet only around 50-60 years ago, how many English people had ever tried them?

Public executions, child labour, and poor houses were part of our culture at one time, too.

“It’s a feeling”

What a load of bollocks, just an excuse to spout racist tosh

If there was a thread about gay culture i am quite sure your posts would not be attacking the word culture

Gay culture is a real thing though. It isn't a feeling, it's a history.

The battles for equal rights, the arts, history, speech and traditions. It's tangible and real.

That’s because I’m not ****ing ***** enough to claim that culture is a feeling

What does that have to do with anything? The discussion is the supposed harm migrants/refugees/asylum seekers are doing to english/british culture.

You clearly lack understanding if you don't get what I mean by 'feel'. Your problem not mine.
