I have been so busy at work the last thing I want is a fight on FR so I have avoided those threads.

I did go on one thread where one poster was making stupid comments about life in Britain picking isolated incidents and trying to make out that the whole of Britain was like that.

I am afraid I lost my cool with him and told him that at least we did not remove Christmas trees from airports.

We could all pick incidents from any country and say that this is what a country stands for or what you will experience everywhere but that is blatantly not true.

Yes we need to watch out and fight these stupidities but to blast and label other countries as all bad is ridiculous hence why I used the Christmas tree example showing that because an airport in one State in America bans them or removes them (I believe after public protest they were put back) it does not mean that the whole of America is like that.

The poster was most insulting to me telling me that I had not got my eyes open and if I hung around FR for more than a day I would learn what happens in my country. I kid you not he said that he also called me a guy - a guy with my tagline, my user name and not to speak of my profile. To say I was angry is a mild reaction to what I was.
