The moment they fully allow political discussions on this forum the lovely doevy dog and cat posting picture posting atmosphere would be lost. I remember on here there was a thread going way back where a lot pepole (you never guess where they where from) expressed a lot of homophobic views.

By keeping some topics out of bounds in ensures the community works together.

Judging from your previous statements in other threads, I would presume that you are referring to the US.

Do you actually believe that crap, or are you just trying to get a rise.  I really feel sorry  for you, if you  judge a large population by the actions of a few or from how a very left sided media portrays a certain political sect.  If you believe the media, anybody that is conservative (about half the population)  hates the poor, is racist and is anti gay.  This could not be further from the truth, but by the media portraying this, they keep the emotions running high.  You fall into the same trap that 1/4 the population in the US fall into.

I know a lot of people.  The number is probably more than the people that you get your information from.  My job allows me to interact with more people everyday.  Even with all the people that I come in contact with, I would still not judge a population of more than 300 million.

So I would ask you to get of your high horse, and quit throwing the insinuations around about how you think the USA is so backwoods oriented, and allow that narrow mind to expand and understand that there are other societies in the world that do not fall into your narrow societal perspective.

I don't have an overall hatred of the US. Just certain elements of the country most of all the goverment. Indeed i enjoy a lot what is considered American culture most notabley films.

If you want to be silly and read into my statments as being my overall perception of the US. Then fine that just reinforces another of my opinions of the US. Ether way im just vocalizing my views as i think im entitled to by my fundamental rights as a human being.

Just as it is others rights to be ignorant and homophobic and my right to call them out on it.

And i don't grudge you or any person calling me out on my views but just cause it offends you don't mean im going to shut up about it.
