Why would they? There's no strong claim to it, it would just be pointless, and this topic just smacks of trouble-making.

I cannot see the vast majority of them even trying to be honest. I don't see it happening here in the UK, there are some extreme voices but I doubt very much if any Govt in the UK of any party would ever go down that road and listen to the extreme elements.

If the Irish couldn't do it on THEIR OWN ISLAND, what would make the muslims think they could?

Yeah I hear there are some swell views of all the various historical European monuments and Asian temples from the cosy confines of an internet cafe in Backwash Georgia.

I fully respect how culturally diverse the USA is but even if I were an American I would myself want to get out of there and experience another continent. Just like I do as a European. Are you honestly advocating staying landlocked like that for life?

You are right America is incredibly diverse but saying the difference between LA and New York is comparable to the difference between Rome and London is rifuckingdiculous.

i'm not advocating anything. And i disagree., You do realize at one point london was part of the roman empire don't you?

India was part of the British Empire, by your logic the two countries are the exact same?

I wasn't aware that the Roman empire was still at large.

I could draw comparisons. But they would be entirely irrelevant to the discussion. So I won't.

Yes, funny old thing, they teach it in schools over here.

And you do of course realise that America was part of the British Empire?

Thirteen states out of how many states?

Our history lessons differ from yours, at that time there wasnt 50 states or was there?

Stu · 20-02-2011, 06:25 PM

That the differences are not comparable. I have said this already.

Okay. I guess logic isn't yur strong suit.

I'm waiting to hear yur argument as to how london and rome are SO mucn more different than New york and LA are. You don't seem capable of comming up with anything, so i'll just let it go. I guess we're just meant to believe you.

stu isn't known for being very logical.

InOne · 20-02-2011, 06:25 PM

This whole topic is ridiculous lol

Stu · 20-02-2011, 06:36 PM

They exist in seperate countries, for one. On a day to day basis that makes a whole world of difference. You are going to make light of any argument I have anyway ... what with your woeful use of a keyboard ... so I don't know why I bother but a tourist going from London to Rome and vice versa can expect a different primary language, a different system of politics and government services, a different currency, an entirely different near exclusive ethnicity of people with their own traits ... lord do I have to go on?

The differences between the two examples are in no way comparable. LA has different monuments, a different ethnic mix a different temperature, different languages and whatnot to New York, along with different state laws. Sure. But both are still quintessentially American. You're still in America. I'm not sure have you been to all four places but I have and the differences are not comparable.

One lovely country, united and standing tall with a smorgasboard of different cultures versus two lovely countries with two different cultures. Unless you're now arguing that your beloved country is nothing more than a loosely tied together melting pot of different cultures? That would go against your previous posts general theme of 'American' culture and 'American' inventions and whatnot. Is it all in reality seperate cultures just coming under the one banner? A pseudo country only in name?

You can't have it both ways can you, surely? Christ you are a drag. I'll just leave you be.

I never said you said that. In fact ... none of that post responding to ILoveTRW had anything to do with you.

Maybe you should chill out and take your time with these things. Read, comprehend, respond. Or not.
