Why is society obsessed
Lord Shagg-Pyle:
Again at the risk of sitting on the fence on this subject, but I would ask all those who think that the BNP is the best option to look back over history to the late 20's and early 30's and the subsequent result.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, which thankfully we can have as a result of a war being fought by the UK, the US and other democratic countries against a nation that had been brainwashed by some very clever, devious vicious people.
I would just add that 'immigrant workers' from all races, religons and beliefs fought for the Allied cause.
But hey, I'm not a history lecturer, nor a politician.
I do not have a problem with immigrants, providing they are able to work and be of use to the country and not a drain on its resources. However, I am also of the opinion that more should be done to prevent some of the 'home grown' scroungers carrying on in the way they do.
For instance, why are all the immigrant workers coming here to work on the land? Because the pay is more than they get at home, and also certain members of the indigenous population won't get off their lazy arses to work, because we have created a social system that allows them and it could be said encourages them not to work.
Those who do not have a legitimate claim to asylum, who screw the system, come here with intent to commit crime and acts of terror, should be denied entry, I agree, but those members of society who are 'native' and also abuse the system should also be brought into line.
My last musing on this particular response will be that however you dress up the BNP, they are still a bunch of racist, Nazi based thugs who are only one step away from the likes of the extreme white supremacy morons in the USA.

Janie, you may have a case for sexual discrimination as your opinion has been removed :wink:
Also children using bad language in this country is another big issue. Who do we blame for this, forum users, parents, teachers or media? I think we should elect some of the forum mods to act like our own Jamie Oliver to crusade and remove words from the English dictionary that are used far more regular by younger people than their elders :wink: :lol:

i help at the local youth group and we've banned mobile phones, ipods etc if they have music with swearing, and both the schools my children go to (primary and secondary) swearing is not acceptable and if they continue they can be excluded. its like this text language the kids use i wont answer my kids i make them write to me in proper English it takes me 10 mins to understand it!!
BrumLee:
Sad thing is although swearing is unacceptable to the minority it's now part of everday life, not only confind to the workplace.
But where do you draw the line? Stop watching soaps because of the occasional 'B' word (sorry mods for the disguised word :shock: ), refuse to watch funny blooper programs because someone swears when they forgot their lines, refuse to give to charities like red nose day because they put in a comedy sketch with a couple of profanities?
Swear words are only offence if used in an offensive manner. In my opinion I find it a bit childish if someone is pulled up for dropping a swear word and then gets pulled up with "Arrrrr, you just swore". The best policy I have is to ignore it :wink:

As i was once told a long time ago. In order to insult someone you first need thier respect otherwise it's just a collection of words.
