Still, is anyone prepared to stand up and say "I'm a narrow-minded, right-wing, reactionary, knee-jerk authoritarian and proud of it"?

I freely admit to being a right-wing, euro-sceptic, authoritarian, in favour of National Service, Corporal Punishment and Capital Punishment.
At the same time I believe that it is important that we live in an inclusive, classless society. That protects the weak, and punishes those who break the law. I firmly believe that was can build a fair society, but only if we treat everyone the same, be they black, white, asian, disabled or of good health. As far as I an concerned, 'Western Civilisation' is quickly becomming morally bankrupt, and staggering toward decline.
But thats just how I see the circular pattern of history repeating itself.
Well that's my opinion, and as everyone knows -
Opinions are like @$$h0le$, everyone's got one.
