“If you can’t abide by the local culture to some minimal degree, you are free to leave.”

“We are dealing with frequent honor killings, lack of respect for gender equality and complete disregard for the cultures that generously provide the social benefits so many of the people miserably failing to acclimate are quite happily enjoying.

My kids are in schools that are virtual UN assemblies. Some of the issues that have come up at school are folks that want to mutilate their kids, or make their 8 year old daughters wear a full veil against her wishes, or refusing to allow kids to interact with the opposite sex, and refusing to allow kids to be taught biology and sex education.

Now, as a parent, that may be your right in some countries. But not this one. And if you can’t abide by the local culture to some minimal degree, you are free to leave.

By the same token, I’m not welcome to go to many of these backwards cultures and hit on peoples wives, get drunk and eat bacon burgers, then have gay sex by the flickering light of a burning the Koran. That would be insulting their culture.”
