  • Question for the non-U.S. folks
    G Gandalf_TheWhite

    True, the more interesting stuff is, when the Government is emphasizing Safety by imposing 10x fine for not wearing seat belts and helmets there are people who were opposing it. It's like they do not want to wear seat belts whenever they can and the increase in fine is not acceptable at all by compromising their own safety. Wondering, is there any law for wearing a seatbelt over there or any such safety measure?

    Being a contractor right now, the fact that one of the permanent is rather, let's average, is good for me, logically... It makes me look good!

    I might have a different opinion here that the Contractors are smart people and those who are really good at doing things can only turn into Contractor as its more rewarding than the regular job and an average contractor would eventually start doing a job after sometime.

    That's one of the side effects of being a contractor as they expect you will have solution of every problem that they have created or not able to solve.

    In India, it is, What's an "Average" of that car. No pun intended, but almost every Indian checks for this aspect whenever they go to purchase a car, Milage/Average is the first priority, safety and features are secondary.

    That's great geographic advantage those two countries have and that's the reason they are not affected by destruction waves. Whereas we(Indians) were the first casualties to got hit/ruled by several destruction waves and its reached at its peak today from where terrorism has become a routine part of our life, which wasn't get noticed/ignored till this many years but while the second wave has started hitting Europe, suddenly entire world is realizing how painful it is when some particular community is trying to destroy/invade the culture. While Indians(hindus) being most peaceful community in the world surprisingly to counter the facts of Islamic terrorism in our country, our libtard media has coined the term Hindu Terrorism from nowhere. :wtf: So they liberals/media and supporters Islamic terrorist will do everything to hide & mitigate the Islamic Terrorism, if nothing works they will play victim of being in minority and demands for Human rights.

    I am surprised to see this statistics, if its true then all those claims are completely false that Muslims do not get enough support for their well establishment. :omg:

    This is a give away: those of Indian origin, for instance, get 8% of their income from the state in the form of benefits, state pension and tax credits, those describing their ethnicity as Pakistani or Bangladeshi receive 29% of their income in various forms of state aid.[^] Hindus vs muslims.

    Wow! 8% vs 29% Isn't it enough to understand, after all these efforts and resources there is going to be no improvement or peace. May be our government should study such data, analyse it and make amendments in such policies which are meant for their welfare, it seems of no use to spent so much when at the end if its gonna go towards implication of following sharia law.

    ridiculous claim that white people are intentionally repressing Muslims and forcing them to live in ghettos.

    Believe me, That's totally rubbish, in my country they've more benefits, facility, reservation and even if they are prosperous they can't mix with others except few(for whom again a question goes whether they are real Muslims or converted ones).

    One of the reason for that is, after 9/11 attack by Bin Laden(was safeguarded in Pakistan), US government has wiped out most of the sleeper cells and their leaders from USA.

    Again, that's absolutely right, I know it very well, whenever they get big enough or equal they will always itch for riots/hooliganism and implicate harassment & mischief on who are in minority from them as there are ample examples exists in my country whenever such happened.

    I am not sure if its sarcasm or what but if I go by the each sentence then overall your post suggest tit for tat way to deal with this scenario. Well, it would be the right approach however keep in mind they have their own support in the name of "Human Rights" and "Terrorist do not have religion" In trying to do so they would come up with the term "Christian terrorism" or "Hindu terrorism" but of course there is no Islamic terrorism at all and thus send one on a back-foot if one try to teach same payback lesson.

    If they want civil rights when they are in a minority, they should be prepared to grant civil rights to others in countries where they are in a majority.

    This is the height of hypocrisy by them that they wanted to enjoy freedom of liberal/secular nations however when it comes to their nation/religion everything becomes regressive towards minority.

    Not so. Black caribean culture blended perfectly well with white culture in the 70s and gave rise to a whole new form of music and youth movement, two tone, ska, etc. Indian culture is highly compatible with European culture and has been for centuries.

    Nice observation, actually there are many countries and specific religious people blend harmoniously with the immigrant country or when they go for trade or business and accepts law & order of that particular country. Indian history is twisted by many historians from different rulers according to their own favor however one noticeable fact is when Britain invaded/rules India they didn't destroyed temples, razed idols, raped women and killed innocent* to the ground unlike every other Islamist invaders done "with cruelty". But after Independence if we compare both era then ofc. British rule was not as bad compare to those mogul rulers. I am not favoring one over other but trying to point out that its un-matched cruelty whenever any kind of Islamic terrorism overcome to anything. *with few exceptions.

    THe problem is islam. Just that. It is them. They dont want to integrate. They want to dominate, to take over, to subjugate.

    I would slightly differ here, not everyone from Islam is same but those who quotes Quran for their hate speech and misguides innocent and make them terrorist are the real culprits.

    The first thing to do is outlaw halal meat production. It is illegal anyway, under EU and UK law.

    Exactly! Well, our current Indian government tried to do something for "other" intention however there was immense backlash from media and political parties who are in support for so called beef-eaters (read it as vote bank politics). But the point is, since its illegal and if there is a law for it then those black money flow will be stopped and there won't be funding to one particular portion of people who used to sponsor terrorism. All of your point reminds me of what Australia did to protect their land from the "Islamist Terrorism". Its enough that world has denied the term Islamic Terrorism in the name of "Terrorists do not have religion" whereas someone posted this list in Lounge which clearly states the current terrorism problem is specifically caused by one particular. List of Islamic Terror Attacks[^]
