Ashamed Of My Own Country

Other than this post, nothing will appear today - normal output will, hopefully, resume tomorrow.

Until tomorrow I leave you with some words to ponder.

When an elected politician of a friendly country is refused entry to this country - there is something wrong.

When a government ignores a threat by one of its 'ethnic' peers of the realm to organise a protest by 10,000 members of his creed against something he, the peer, does not like - there is something wrong.

When a government bends its knee to the will of a religious minority for fear of 'upsetting' said religious minority - there is something wrong.

When a government begins to decide someone's opinions would cause a threat - there is something wrong.

When a government can act and in so doing make me ashamed of my own country - there is something wrong.
