Shuma, I'm getting pretty tired of you coming on every thread that mentions England and having a dig. How long have you actually spent living in this 'hole'? From your posts I'd wager your only experience of the country is what you read on the interwebs every time New Labour proposes something daft. I've spent the entirety of my life in the beatific (Lonely Planet named Great Britain the most beautiful island on Earth), cultured and humour filled land of Albion, and I wouldn't live anywhere else. Your cheap jibes are childish and rude (what else would I expect from an American... ), and I'd appreciate if you kept your remarks constructive. I've mentioned this before, but still you persist in your attacks, it's rather tiresome.

I'll stop as soon as your country stops digging itself into a totalitarionistic nanny state.

If attacking a nation, when not in jest, please support your statement, else it becomes a troll attack.

I'm sorry I didn't realize I had to copy paste the article in the very first post of the thread in every one of my posts. Could I just link you to the page you're already on? It would take up less space.

Speaking not as a mod but as a fellow poster here. Your witticisms of stating the UK is hole, is both tiresome and droll at this point. GB'ers have responded in kind on at least one occasion, and with good cause. Build a bridge and get over it.

I can't they'll deport me when I cross the bridge and get over there. When you ban "extreme porn", put cameras everywhere, and deport people for hate speech (hate speech is subjective) then you begin to become a nanny state.

Funny thing though, I've only said it now twice. The last time I said it (during the extreme porn thread) one GB poster told me to screw off and several (albeit hesitantly) agreed with me.

Don't you just wish you could deport me for my hate speech?

Than call it a nanny state. Saying they are a hole is just insulting.

That was the point. Though yeah, it's trolling and against forum rules. I'll stop.

Don't be thinking the reason Britons aren't coming back at you with counter points putting your own country in a similar guise, is because there aren't any. It's because most people don't go on what they've heard on the internet when determining an entire nation.
