Yes we should all be tolerant of each others views but if I were to move to a muslim country I would expect to have to change how I lived and I would expect to have to abide by the rules of that country. If I couldn't live by those rules/customs I would move back home or I would look to live elsewhere, I wouldn't demand that everyone else change to suit me  |
I agree with everything you say there, unfortunately a common sense attitude like that gets the do-gooder brigade calling you and me a racist for those views. |
I personally don't consider those views racist. I agree. The only time I disgree with not adapting the public's views is when those views include actual racist views (such as "send 'em all back").
