Yes....because as a country we should conduct ourselves in a manner that protects us from being ...gasp....made fun of. Lord knows that is the most important thing we can do. PS - Since you don't seem to be, I'll be embarrassed for you that such a shallow remark was the only thing you could add to the discussion. A tip for next time: A substantive post about your position on the topic goes a lot further than claiming to speak for "the rest of the world". |
No, as a country you should try to behave well enough that when you travel abroad your not given the advice to fly another countrys flag on you person. I have heard many instances where you yanks have used the maple leaf as not to get treated like shit while in europe.
on topic, really, on a day to day basis would anybody really post this on their place of buiness in a rescesion? what's that conversation with yourself sound like?
shop owner: "i'm bearly making any money here, maybe i should try to see if i can live on even less money"
shop owner's reply " yeah that would be a great challange! maybe we should drive away some of our clientelle"
shop owner " how about gays, i really don't like them anyways"
shop owner's reply"yeah that's great ,cause if i get rid of them you know the liberals will stay away too"
shop owner " excellent! that way i'll get less money AND the warm fuzzy feeling of only dealing with people who think like i do!"
if anybody is willing to take their biggotry that far, i hope they like the taste of what they get.
