Re: OT - Politically Correct --------
Hmmm Great news. I was thinking on visiting the States but my english is
soooo bad that I took the desicion of not going. But your note helps me to
decide where in the States to go.
Funny thing is that nowadays if you know english and spanish you can travel
all around the world. Some years ago you could travel only with english but
the times are changing. Is like the dollar. Few years ago every single time
I traveled outside Europe I carried US Dollars that are accepted all around
the world. Now I travel only with UE Euros... That is something for you to
worry about... not the ------ of "hispanos" population.
Best Regards,
Fidelio

Re: OT - Politically Correct --------
Every so often something like this happens in the US. Some mal-content
will find something to offend them and will lodge a complaint. In the case
of a "pin" or other ornamentation the excuse they choose is racism or hate
related as these have some court backing. In the specific case of a flag
pin.... in the US if that stays in the news for a couple days there will be
a 'review' of the complaint and a reversal of the ban.
In the US these complaints are generally from a liberal, a demoncratic, or a
commie (all the same group). In the UK who are your malcontents?

Re: OT - Politically Correct --------
I've found two types of universal currency.
The first is the US dollar which is a preferred currency in much of the
world.
The second is American cigarettes which are accepted as money just about
everywhere else and especially in the middle east.

Re: OT - Politically Correct --------
I've found two types of universal currency.
The first is the US dollar which is a preferred currency in much of the
world.
The second is American cigarettes which are accepted as money just about
everywhere else and especially in the middle east.

Re: OT - Politically Correct --------
Fidelio,
The groups that cause the problems in the US are generally the ones who want
to benefit from American society but refuse to become part of, or donate to
it.
The "melting pot' that you hear referred to is where each group as they are
becoming Americanized gives the best of its ideas, beliefs, and culture into
that melting pot.
A person only need look at any US calendar and see the influence of all the
groups that came in before. We celebrate holidays from all cultures, we
assimilate their variation into our existing holidays.
The Irish have gone so far as to publicly state that on St. Patrick's Day
that 'Everyone is Irish" and no one is offended.
Is our society perfect? No, we have a long way to go and the going is made
worse by malcontents intent on destroying the 'American Dream' as we know
it.
Billy Ray, American

The groups that cause the problems in the US are generally the ones who want
to benefit from American society but refuse to become part of, or donate to
it.
The "melting pot' that you hear referred to is where each group as they are
becoming Americanized gives the best of its ideas, beliefs, and culture into
that melting pot.
A person only need look at any US calendar and see the influence of all the
groups that came in before. We celebrate holidays from all cultures, we
assimilate their variation into our existing holidays.
The Irish have gone so far as to publicly state that on St. Patrick's Day
that 'Everyone is Irish" and no one is offended.
Is our society perfect? No, we have a long way to go and the going is made
worse by malcontents intent on destroying the 'American Dream' as we know
it.
