News & Events - October 2006

Why do people feel the need to slag off other towns in the UK? The idiot who is currently saying Hull is the most stupid is just the latest in a long list of people who really should think about what they say before posting it on here. I read that question with anger, I live in Hull, and happen to really like it here. The people are not stupid and I resent your accusations.
I guess my point is, with all this hatred in the world, why do people still feel the need to ***** about eachother, where we live, how we dress, what choices we make? Why can't we all just try to be tolerant of eachother and accept that although there are really bad areas in the world, there are also really good bits and we should celebrate that rather than destroy it.

I would say 'yes' - maybe Littlehampton too. I went to Hull a few years ago and it was still 1982.

Freedom is the freedom to do as one chooses without external interference. Therefore would it be hypocritical if Britain decided the veil may not be worn?

Serious answers only; no racists or bigots.

When your questions states, "Americans" specifically, people often answer with, "It isn't just Americans, it is the whole world too, you know?"

1) I stated "Americans" in the question. I didn't state "the whole world". Please, answer the question as written. If you want to include the whole world, use one of your questions.
2) Why pass the blame...yes, the problems here also happen everywhere. At least accept that they happen here too. It's OK. We aren't perfect either.
3) When one thing is specified, don't treat it as a hard and fast rule that happens no less than 100% of the time. There is only so much space to write. I just don't have space for every nuance.
4) Lighten up a little...Geez, you're going to burst something if you stay so tightly wound...Relax...everything will end up OK...
