Too much of this inflammatory stuff going on in here...IS it too much to ask that we try to respect one another's differences and relish them for the diversity that they bring to the melting pot? Instead of looking for what's wrong with each other's cultures, societies, outlooks, etc... why can't we start a thread about what we like about each other?
Particularly, in this area - folk music - where the contrast of traditional and new, Celtic/AngloSaxon, European, American, blues, world all bring us together...
Come on, let's not do this....
Let's make this the last "What is about the [insert nationality here]" threads. Please.
