I'm asking because at another forum that persists in bashing the USA, it was mentioned that NZ has a 'speak English'.
I'm not sure if they mean its a law or just what, but it got me to thinking.
Doesn't France have a law banning the muslim head scarf? Or was that repealed?
Can you imagine if the USA tried to pass a law banning the scarves?
Anyway, I was just wondering if there were any laws that the US has that gets the US in trouble while other countries get a pass?

Mexico enforces their immigration laws. We don’t.

Well the US has a death penalty which many countries look down on, but Islamic countries routinely put people to death, especially women, for any idiotic religious reason and nobody cares.

Well, we have religious freedom in this country.
Saudi Arabia does not have such freedom. There are no churches or synagogues allowed in the Kingdom.
But if Saudis come here, they insist that their Muslim beliefs be accommodated.
They like our law and they disagree with our law.

I always like how the people of Portugal, Spain, Britain, Belgium, et all label the US imperialist. You know, the countries that looted Africa, the Caribbean, South America, etc. objecting to our colonization of... I don’t know Guam or something.

Most of the European Union, Japan, Mexico and Canada disapprove of the Death Penalty and refuse to extradite fugitives who could face it.

Try being a drunk in Iran. They will hang you. Some Arab countries don’t like their women to show their face in public, or drive. Women can be killed for such transgressions.

I really don’t care what the rest of the world thinks, they don’t have to visit if they don’t like the rules.
