Political Correctness Gone MAD... UK-US...or wherever

"I understand totally. You guys are slowly losing your country" you got it in a nutshell Dan. Do you know at Christmas our Government's head so-called 'Think-Tank' actually met to decide if they could abolish Christmas as it 'may cause offence' to other faiths? Okay two very major points here.
1) They will NEVER abolish Christmas. Just check out the amount of lights and stuff around here from October onwards. Ain't gunna happen. Unless they want a revolution.
2) This is a very major point. The Muslims and Hindus here have NO quarrel whatsoever with us enjoying Christmas!!!! They're like "Go for it dudes, we have our stuff you celebrate yours" there is NO problem at all. The PROBLEM is white middle class do-gooder, liberals in Whitehall. They haven't even consulted any other religions. These stupid, prix create tensions where there aren't any at all. Okay, the guy who owns a nearby shop to me? He's Asian. He's cool. In his late 40s. Really nice guy. Family man. Nice wife, smart, hard working, pleasant. He asks me just before Christmas "Hey Chris...when am I supposed to put my lights up for Christmas - seems to get earlier!"
I said "Well....you do it whenever you want mate. Personally, mine are up. I put 'em up December 10th and they go down on January 3rd. He said "Ah when we were little kids we were so excited at Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Now. I have to say this was a real wake up call. This genuinely nice family guy, working, older than me, has always enjoyed Christmas. Now again...I refer you to those f***** a holes in government creating division, exclusion and ill-feeling.
 
I'm currently reading a book from a German author named Udo Ulfkotte which is called "Heiliger Krieg in Europa" (Holy War in Europe). The scenario he describes is pretty scary.

It begins with slowly undermining our society, gradually abandoning everything which is considered "not holy" in the name of Allah and finally gaining control over European governments and societies. The organisation which coordinates these activities is called "Muslimbruderschaft".

One of the members of the Muslimbruderschaft is quoted with: "In the future it's not the point of steering planes in tower buildings. It's about gaining control of those tower buildings".

The process has already begun. Ulfkotte says, there is a secret strategy paper which reveals that they plan to have quashed Europe by the year 2020.
 
From some of what I read, that may be true. What is the percent of Muslims in Germany? You have a lot of Turks there, don't you? I know a lot of nice people who are Muslims, but it just takes a few to upset the apple cart. If they are violent, then the peaceful ones will not dare interfere because of the threat of violence.
 
I had a further one this week dudes. Strap-in for this one. I was calling the prison about one of my offenders who's been transferred. As per the usual process they ask for details. The conversation went thusly:

Him: "Do you have a prison number?"
Me *Gives number*
Him "Do you have a date of birth?"
Me *Gives date of birth*
Him "Do you have a surname?"
Me *Gives surname*
Him "Do you have a Christi-...sorry sir, do you have a first name?"
Me "...why did you stop halfway through asking for a Christian name?"
Him "We've been told we can't use the term Christian name anymore. It might offend someone"
Me "You're kidding me"
Him "No...unbelieveable isn't it?"
Me "This country is doomed"
 
LOOOOOL it really pisses me off, sorry but it does. who teh EFF cares?

in elementary schools in Norway, it's a tradition to go to church around christmas-times, and listen to .. i dunno, i cant remember. but it's like an hour in church with some songs and the priest reading some stuffs etc. it's actually kinda cosy, cause a lot of students are gathered and we just sit there, listening - and it's not like the priest is rambling on about OMG JOIN US!11.

anyway, it's been like this ...like forever - and now they're thinking of having this tradition removed, cause "someone might be offended, if they are from another religion"..

W.T.F?? i cant remember hearing about anyone from another religion wanting this removed (but there are probably some) i know the extreme people, like jehovas's witnesses, they will have their kids sent home or have them stay at the school or something. I cant see why this is a problem? If muslims or whatever religon (or lack of, for that matter) dont want their kids in the church, then let them go home or stay at the school for an hour.. watching a movie or drawing or WHATEVER. (usually, the church-visit is around 11 am and the students get to go home after it anyway).

and if this wont do, then WHY is it so bad to sit in a church? OMG jeeesuuuuus!! ARGH. Is it so BAD to learn about other cultures and religons? will it KILL them? Sorry, I dont mean to offend anyone, but i'm under the belief that if you come to a country, you should atleast bother to accept our cultures, and leave the laws of your old country behind. (not that all of them are foreign. like jehovas, most of them are from this country,...but still. if i was in as school where i had to sit through whatever seremony the jehovas have.. i'd sit and patiently wait for it to finish. as long as they dont force me to convert, it's nothing else than just sitting there.)

If foreigners wont behave, we have no use for them.. send them back! i dont want foreigners to fill up OUR jails! use time and money from our country on their trials and whatnot.


If I had nowhere to go, and I needed to flee my country, and I was lucky enough to be accepted in another country, I'd be on my BEST behaviour. I'd try my best to embrace their culture and laws. I wouldn't demand to have them remove traditions cause i didn't approve.. LOL.

"i have to bow everytime i say hello? I SHALL RIOT UNTIL THIS TRADITION IS GONE!!" uuh yeah.

anyway, sorry for the rambling.. i got carried away, LOL. I bet it's just our government that's afraid of offending anyone, and that's why they want to remove the tradition.. cause they're afraid of a little arguing. *rolls eyes*
 
I really do feel the sh*t's gonna hit the fan on this one. It's shapin' up. I've never known anything like this. It'll go so far, then something will snap. I'm of a firm belief that a revolution now and then is cool. It's like society's pressure cooker. However. I really don't think our mass culture; the West's way of life - our traditions, norms, values, beliefs, ideals, customs, attitudes and principles have ever been under such a threat ever before. Not even via Communism.

What REALLY gets me about all this is WE currently have the upper hand (with the balance of power). And I can see this being eroded. (not so) slowly but surely.

IF I wanted to go to Iran or Syria, and I demanded benefits, a house, free health care, and wanted to build churches and spread Christianity...and at the same time I demanded of Syria that everything religious they do (showing flags, holding school plays, etc) offended me, do you really think they'd say "Oh hey everyone. We're offending Art. Let's stop this and completely alter our way of life. We'll take down our national flag as it may offend him. We'll stop our traditions". Oh yeah you can see that. And let's add one more fact to this. If I also then preached openly on the streets, of striking down the infidels who were housing me, providing me with money etc...Just as we've had here in Britain in Finchley. Oh man...when you look at it...?

   
 
exactly, lolol. i mean, it's like common courtesy or something.

what surprises me though, whenever the government in norway wants to change anything - nobody ever does anything about it if they dont like it.. we all just sit here and go "oh fiddles, they're banning this and that.. ohwell." *crycry* - but then again, i'm one of them who just sits around. LOL!

then again, I'm prone to doing illegal (minor) stuff, like growing weeds in my house or something (haha) - and you know why? not because i like it, i wouldn't know cause i haven't tried. but because the police would never know. unless i started selling it and carrying it around, they would never notice. It's not like they just barge in a random house and go OMG IS THERE DRUGS HERE PERHAPS? I've never done anything illegal before. I dont know anyone who abuses drugs. The closest I would be to someone who uses drugs would be like "i know someone who knows someone who used to take drugs" - that kind of stuff. So how on earth would the cops have any clue whatsoever? I know my grandparents, on this lot actually, used to have opium poppies! And they are actually not illegal I think. (in norway) - in norway you can have them as decoration... but again, who would know? LOL I actually want to get some of them, cause my dad told me how beautiful the ones they had were (his dad had a greenhouse) and the colours were so vibrant and pretty, lol.
 
"i know someone who knows someone who used to take drugs"

Now they know that you know that they know that you know...

"my dad told me how beautiful the ones they had were (his dad had a greenhouse) and the colours were so vibrant and pretty, lol"

Yeah especially after you've processed their resin and sampled it LOL
 
The hypocrisy is amazing. If you look at the situation in Iraq, regardless of your view of the war, you see the insurgents shooting and killing from mosques and no one says a word, but if that same mosque gets damaged by return fire then all hell breaks loose. Women can't be searched, yet to take advantage of this, women are now being used as suicide bombers. Those who are crying out the loudest because they are being offended are the first to disregard the fact that they offend others. They take advantage of the very freedoms they would do away with if they were in power. Many do not think like this, but a large minority do.
