Then I learn through 7/7 that these people not only hate us, they want to blow us to bits or take us over and inflict their barbaric, nasty religion on my free country.
I love my country, i am proud of what we stand for, do you? Simple question, do you love your country.
Arthur.
The 'they' you speak of - you mean a tiny minority of criminal minded extremists. Wouldn't get your knickers in a twist about it Arf. Sounds like, as a family man, you will have a lot more on your plate to worry about, like genuine concerns. Dont be like Pitbull and spend what could be quality time with the kids, 'spreading the word' to people who know about the 'threat' in far more realistic terms than the EDL.
I'm not sure what we stand for tbh - hypocrisy, a govt that doesn't give a shit, football hooligan mentality, Brits abroad mentality, alcoholism, alcohol fuelled violence, an educations system that is probably the worst in the whole of Europe and TV programming made by retards for retards, oh, and a good old sunday roast!
Or are you harping back, misty eyed, to the England of old? Streets that weren't packed, bumper to bumper with cars, when you could walk home after eleven and not see puke and blood on the streets, when houses didn't cost the earth, when there was a sense of community, when people actually trusted each other? Yes, sure I miss that.
What does it mean to 'love' your country? You mean its topography? Yes, I do. It's people? Sometimes, sometimes I prefer the foreigners I meet here. I'm certainly not proud of the image people have of the UK, and it's not one of sharia courts in every town, no, it's the images they see of pissed up union jack waving lads looking much like EDL members, on the rampage.
