What the hell? :eek7:

I said i agree with you on the zealot, extremist etc point.

What's YOUR problem?



Well ain't you a tuff boy. So many big insults and all.

He does have an obligation to serve you, but not to go an extra distance to do so. Read what i wrote and understand it.

Would you expect a UK shopkeep to whip out a finnish translation book for finnish tourists? No? Well then, neither does the finnish person need to know english or go the extra mile to understand you.

If that's a problem for said english speaking person, they can f*ck off.

Being a shop owner means you always go the extra mile, it's called customer service. I wouldn't expect anyone to whip anything out for any customer.

Why would it be a problem that the shop keeper can't speak English? I guess your generalising everyone from the UK? Or your just imagining it is a problem so you can get your trade marked fuck off in.

What are you talking about?

I'm saying english shopkeeps can't speak finnish, much like some shopkeeps in finland can't speak english.

And like i said, in that situation, the shopkeep isn't obliged to know english, much like it's not expected from a UK shopkeep to know finnish. He is only obliged to serve the UK person as he would a finnish person, in finnish.

I was talking about english people being abroad and getting cocky 'cause the people there don't speak english, i don't know what you're talking about now.

Except being very abusive for no reason at all.

I assumed, might be my wrong there, that your post about shopkeeps being a cock was towards this;

Same goes for example for brits who visit places like scandinavia; you learn OUR language or f*ck off(if you have a problem with someone not speaking english)

So i think...i THINK we're arguing on the same side of the fence :D

We were, but I was poiting out that anyone expecting the shopkeeper to speak his language was ignorant. But the shopkeeper has a personal obligation to try and make sure the customer gets what he needs aslong as they are not being disrespectful!

Yeah, missed somewhere something, 'cause i can't disagree with that. I was trying to show you that the shopkeepers don't have any obligations towards tourists outside serving the customer. Which, well, you were saying too.

Glad we cleared that up you moronic a-hole :D

Again: country != religion

Germany is a non-islamic country, but it´s also a non-christian country (meaning that the church doesn´t play a role in german politics).
There are muslim Germans, there are foreigners living here etc.
There are no rules that allow Germans to bash other religions.

What´s so ridiculous in this particular case is, that this song exists for 85 years and NOW they start complaining.
eh? dont you have Angela Merkel who is from a Christian political party?

She is about as christian as Arnie is american.
Just because the party has a "C" in its name doesn´t mean they really *are* christian.

this is why muslims get such a bad name in genral, always some muslim moaning about every little thing, may well be that its only 5 muslims that travell the world getting pissy, but probly not, either way u don't hear the jews, hindus, bhuddist ect ect ect moaning about everylittle thing




thiers them t-shirts that say BODY OF A GOD, shame its bhudda ect ect


but even if thier was a t-shirt that said somthing retarded like, mohammed had a beard thier would be an uproar and some 1 would end up dead.

What evidence do you have to back this up?

In my experience (and I have travelled a hell of a lot) is that the english, are by far the most pleasant in a foreign country. Of course there are arseholes, but every country have them.
