So dont fucking tell me to leave my own country you idiot |
You do realize that your "for fathers" would probably come to your hanging with a pitchfork raised high, because of what you do for a living?
People change, countries change. People change countries. In Canada we've seen many waves of immigration from different parts of the world throughout history, and every one of them has changed things here.
Laws are made for the times, and also must change as society progresses. Why should they not have the same rights to complain and change the laws as they see fit? You have the same rights!! Are there no laws you disagree with? Do you just blindly follow them, even when you disagree with them?
Never forget what a small window of time you live in. The world and land we call "ours" is just a facade. We are here for a small time, and then we pass on. Billions of people before us called this land "theirs" and now it's "ours" for a small time. Dust to dust right? It's completely silly to think you have more say because of seniority or something. If someone is complaining and wanting to change things in a way you disagree with, then by all means - attend your city council meetings, write letters to politicians, get interviewed in the local newspaper. - no fun, right?
I don't understand the alternative.. Have city council meetings that say - NO MUSLIMS ALLOWED! ?
