Thread Name: BS: Where do Travellers Live?
Subject: RE: BS: Where do Travellers Live?
InOBU how dare you say that I defecate on anyones culture & I am not the immature one here! You obviously are, like most people of cultures which want to go on their merry way ignoring the norms of the society where they have chosen to live & in many cases without paying a penny towards the normal everyday infrastructure, ie taxes. I am not saying that anyone has to live a certain way of life, what I am saying is that in this country, as in many others we do not believe in leaving our mess in the streets. For one thing we know that it is a health hazard, and if we all lived in a shit hole, our society would be even less civilised than it is today.

Don't get me confused with the bigots that are on this site. As a Jew who's maternal grandparents escaped from the pogroms of Poland, I would not disrespect the country I live in. While I am very aware that many of my fellow Jews think they have the right to kill & maim in the sorry belief that they are always right, along with the terrorists of Palestinians, Iraqis etc., I believe that there is good in lots of different cultures. But I still hold that if you live your life in a country you respect the way the majority live. So don't give me crap about Vikings & Saxons. However I would point out that all people on this earth come from a very small pool of human life, so don't go on about being neolithic either, as you tar yourself with the same brush.

While I'm more moderate than Yuk I have to agree that litter louts are disgusting & I hate what the 'refugees' whether they are Romanian or whatever, do with tiny children. Unfortunately there are insufficient resources to stop these people doing what they do, so just don't encourage them by giving them any money & they may get the message & stop it. If you see anyone mistreating a child, report it to the police & NSPCC, don't just sit back & expect it to go away, if you see something you don't like DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!

End of rant, & by the way my husband thinks you are very brave people arguing with me, he wouldn't dare, as he knows I'm always right!!!!!

Go with respect,

Ag
