UN wants to ban Sinterklaas

[Marcel]

Shouldn't be too hard to deal with them. You folks could easily chase them off with rolled newspapers and rooms.

No, we'll keep them at bay with hands full of pepernoten (you can google that). The we'll send in the zwarte pieten to finish the job.

No hahaha...I meant repelling the UN

Catapults firing bacon at the enemy? Ummm.... a cunning plan. I wonder if crossing the Rhine would have easier with such a devious weapon?

Actually the opposite is happening here. If we go there we're expected to respect their traditions and ways. But in the mean time we are asked to change our own ancient traditions. I'm very much willing to yield to the traditions and ways of the country I'm in, as long as they do the same to my traditions in my country. I would say that's fair. But here foreign people try to change our tradition that they don't even understand, while fot instance my wife still will have to cover her hair when in Saoudi Arabia. That's measuring in two different ways.

Actually, That is precisely what I meant. It was just an emotional diatribe.
I will refrain.

And that's a very sound point.

From what I am seeing, though, is that "they" are trying to baseline old traditions all across the board. Meaning traditions that define a people or region until there's no longer any definition.

This may not actually be the case, it's merely an observation of mine.

Political Correctness can go and f*ck itself and those doing their best to find things to whine over, to think for other, perfectly mentally stable, intelligent people....*two fingers and flipping the bird*..
