I don't know why the last thread was deleted, nobody told me off for anything though.


Hm. I'd imagine your insults of so many other posters in that thread weighed heavily in the decision to remove it.

Quote:
Alcohol is not openly consumed here, if you're in with the ruling elite then good for you.


By not openly consumed, perhaps you mean not on the streets or in restaurants. In homes of the rich and powerful, though, it's no secret.

I am not in with the ruling elite there nor do I consume alcohol. You see, my religion also proscribes that.

Quote:
I mean nobody is attacked as in central California, where you may have the pleasure of being murdered for just minding your own business. How 'civilized'.


No, you clearly stated that there is no fear of murder in Saudi Arabia. And, yes, there are those in that country, Saudi citizens even, who have killed just for the fun of it.

Quote:
So you think murderers should be loved and hugged instead?


Show me exactly where I said that, or even implied that, or admit that you have dishonestly portrayed my words.

Quote:
If you can focus you'll see I referred to the lack of murder here, not the punishment for murderers.

I meant there are no Jeffrey Dahmers here.


Ah, but then the government there has executed people for multiple murderers. So, either you don't know what you're talking about or the prosecutor framed innocent people. Personally, I think the former view is most likely the correct one.

Quote:
Asbo refers to anti social behaviour orders which are given to anti-social individuals in Britain, I commented that here we live in peace and security, no rowdy drunken criminals frequent the streets at night in Saudi.


Oh, peace and security, you say? Tell that to the families of the girls' school students who died when the religious police forced the student into a burning building and interfered with the rescue efforts. Tell that to the people who've been killed by religious police shooting at laundry hanging on drying lines on rooftops just because the religious police assume there are sattelite dishes behind the sheets. Tell that to the families of the foriegn workers who come to Saudi Arabia to work as household servants but are raped, forced into prostitution, and/or murdered by their employers.

Quote:
Asbo is not exactly an insult.


Ah, but it is.

Quote:
I think your difficulty is you know you're the bigot but cannot accept it. Open your 'civilized, enlightened mind' and smell the coffee.


Nice violation of the TOS you pulled there. By the way, my religion also prohibits the consumption of coffee!

Quote:
(I suppose making people sit on the back of the bus just because they have dark skin is another sign of progress. Another western achievement).


Methinks you need to find a current calendar. There is nowhere in the United States of America (my county) today where it is legal to force someone to sit in the back of the bus because of their skin color.

Wow. You really do need a current calendar. Slavery? This is the last day of 2009 CE. Slavery has been outlawed in the USA for over one hundred years.

Are you accusing me of crime? If so, that is also a violation of the TOS here.

Are you threatening to commit a crime against me? No doubt, that's also a violation of the TOS.

Have you heard of chocolate?

CentralCali - Are you accusing me of liking chocolate, that's a violation of the law.

fromtheuk - Have you heard of a psychiatrist? Laughing

I was referring to your posts being similar to that of a stalker. Mods - Please help this 'native' speaker understand the written word. Rolling Eyes

For crying out loud you two.....

Be mature gentlemen and just relax. Take one of those pills and then call me in the morning. That was a joke.

Happy New Year...
