Why cant I be PM

Hobnailkelly:
What I cannot abide is the way (what I would call) bad language is now an acceptable part of everyday speech while some words are now taboo.  The use of the 'F' word (often preceded by the word mother), the 'C' word, bitch, whore, etc are the language of todays youth and is all too common on television, in popular music and film.  I am not some miserable old git stuck in the 1950's, I just think that such language is more suited to male oriented situations like the workplace, sportsfield, or Landrover garage.  (I particurlarly dislike women swearing, especially in front of, or at, young, impressionable children)

Why is it suddenly ok to call someone a motherfer yet if you refer to a coloured person using the 'N' word you are a despicable racist bigot - look what happened on Big Brother when the 'N' word was used.

I do hear that an American film company, producing a re-make of the Dambusters were so appalled that one of the characters had a dog called Nigger that they wrote the dog out of the script!

Another thing i always wonder about is how proud people are of their country!!!!!
People from Scotland are Scottish,
People from Wales are Welsh,
People from Ireland are Irish; So why oh why,
are people from England............. British???

Apart from that, i agree with above; we (our government) bow to everything to not upset the minorty, why ban nursery rhyms, you now need written permission to take photos of your kids in a play at school, no sports day because of the competition aspect!!!!
It goes on and on when will we be allowed to be ourselves?

This country has gone MAD
