Remember when there used to be such a thing as being a good citizen. You're showing your age. I'm surprised we don't refer to each other as comrade. "Citizen" is so exclusive (sarcasm). There seriously has to be a reawakening in this country regarding our duties and responsibilities as CITIZEN. The Romans took citizenship very seriously and it carried a lot of weight. That nation collapsed because it became diluted with outsiders who didn't assimilate and never saw themselves as being Roman. I fear that we are heading down that same road, for the same reasons. Sane citizens have to make themselves heard.

The Dutch of all people are starting to feel the negative effects of their 'liberal' immigration policies. Turks and Sierra Leone-ians have flooded the Neverlands. They drain the social system without bring anything to the table. As you sow, so shall you reap...or something like that.

It does appear that way.

We are mutli-cultural don't ya know? We used to be a melting pot.
"You're showing your age."
Hardly . . . I look pretty good for the age, of course I should, I am only 29 (last year I can honestly say that) :-)
