OK guys, you've worn out my patience for meaningless profanity. If you're going to use "naughty" words, give them some sort of meaning. Joeb, please start reading the posts of your opponents before you argue. Dryth, I never thought I'd have to reprimand you (you're so well behaved, most of the time), but please don't call anyone a dipshit. Jor-El, don't post just for the sake of saying "screw this." Contro posts need to have meaning.

Next person who violates the rules gets kicked in the nuts. Carry on, but I'll be keeping an eye on this discussion.

Uh, I'ma have to undermine you in public. I'll explain in IM.

I doubt you speak the origional language of your native country either.

Ah, but I am not the one claiming one should have to learn the native tongue of ones nation. I do not criticize the koreans I know who do not speak english, in Fact I take strides to learn Korean so I can speak with them better. Nor do I think people should be forced to learn English. Your position is that people should learn the native tongue, which is rather comical and sad, considering you do not speak your countries native tongue.

 Anyway the fact of the matter is the language of where I live is English so If people move here and dont like it they can piss off. Just as if I moved to India and didnt like speaking Indian I would leave.

But you are the foreigner, why don't you go back to Germany?

 Well I did know that there was a native Briton population before the Celts, so the Britons were simply assimilated by Celtic culture.

Briton is a dialect of Gaelic, though there are differences, Britons, Welsh, Scots, Irish and Galacians are all considered Celts.

I never said people should speak the native tongue of the country I said people should speak english because thats the language of our area of the country.What do you mean Im a foreigner my familys lived here for generations and as I said earlier the only people here who are foreingners are those who want to be.

[Alakhriveion]

Yeah, let's not forget the England was the wild card in World War Two...

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

What do you mean it was the wild-card?

[Korhend]

So by your logic, if these people do not learn the language, and English culture is still foreign to them, but they've been here a while they count as natives? And if enough of them come you will learn Aramaic and learn Muslim culture to appease them, simply because there are more of them?

[Alakhriveion]

What do you mean it was the wild-card?

It was set to go Axis. I can give you more info on this if you want.

Technically, we're all African.

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

If theyve been here long enough and have intergrated into our culture then there the same as us. Loads of them are coming over so we have to stop them taking over our country. I know Britain was set to go Axis but thanks to Winston we didnt. I know what you mean when you say technically were all African but thats not 100 per cent proved yet and I dont even want to go into the origin of manknd in this debate.

[Alakhriveion]

Loads of them are coming over so we have to stop them taking over our country.

How, exactly? England, the US, Australia, and pretty much every other English-talkin' nation was founded through illegal immigration and cultural erosion.

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

Britain is been invaded by people from other countries coming over and trying to to make it like there country.I know in the U.S and Australia was founded through illegal immigration and cultural erosion and thats what screwed the people who where living there.

[Korhend]

But thats exactly what YOU are doing. So unless your willing to learn the NATIVE languages, you have no right to complain.

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

There is really no native language to begin with there where many languages spoke and all of these have evolved and merged into the English language.

[Alakhriveion]

No, not really. And Britain was founded that way too.

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

However Britain was founded its fine the way it is without having people coming over and trying to take it over.

[Alakhriveion]

Why? Are you better than they are?

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

The fact of the matter is that we have our culture in Britain and they have there culture in where ever. If they dont like it here no ones making them stay.

[Alakhriveion]

Why isn' it OK for them to impose a culture on you? Britons imposed one on others repeatedly...

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

Yes we did with dire consequences and we where wrong to do so and dont wanting it happening to us.

[Korhend]

There is really no native language to begin with there where many languages spoke and all of these have evolved and merged into the English language.

Um, no, they haven't. Not even the least. Your as much a backwards foreigner as the Muslims.

Yes we did with dire consequences and we where wrong to do so and dont wanting it happening to us

But you have no problem continuing to do so to others. Untill you learn a type of Gaelic, you cant complain in the least.

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

So what do you think happened then someone just decided one day to speak English. But no one where I live speaks Gaelic or has done for centuries thats like saying to an Italian to be Italian you must speak Latin. I dont impose our culture on anyone they impose it on themselves by coming here in the first place.

Actually, Italian is directly decended from Latin. And this is more like asking you to speak Chinese in China, which I think is a legitimate request, no?

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

I would speak Chinese if I lived in China just as I speak English in England.

[Korhend]

YOU came here. Not the Celts, we were hear first. And YOU are doing the same thing as muslims. According to you not learning the culture and not learning the language are "imposing" the language on them. Then everytime you are opening your mouth, you are imposing the language on us. And, Unlike you, we were here first, while you are the foreigner, you are the English equivelent to the Mexican Migrant worker, and in no position to complain.

[Chukchi Husky]

Did anyone mention that the muslims and other minorities were invited to live in Britain to fill in needed jobs after WWII?

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

The point is its not in the best interests of our country to have more and more people coming into our country and imposing there culture which has failed in there own country.

[Alakhriveion]

Failed? Explain yourself, man.

[Korhend]

Your right, maybe you should leave then.

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

What do you want me to explain?

[Alakhriveion]

How are other cultures "failed?"

[Joeb Wan Kenobi]

Well the countrys they are coming from havent been very succesful e.g India,Pakistan,Kosovo thats why there leaving them. Thats me finished for today its starting to get late here so have a goodnight everyone.
