Since it’s the Chinese we U.S.eptics should really be mad at, I have lodged my usual Chinese protest. I have sent an email to F.A.O. Schwartz demanding that all Chinese Checkers be immediately removed from the shelves.
Besides, how can you stay mad at the Aussies when their ladies have those accents? Rowr!
So, if I was to write a similar letter to the US Embassy, denouncing the entire USA for the tacky and offensive (to my ears) crap produced by certain US based record companies, that would be acceptable?
Or perhaps I should contact your embassy to complain about all the times that Americans make light of the tragic death of Azaria Chamberlain when they use “A dingo took my baby” as a punchline?
If I have a problem with a product, I contact the company direct. I do not go through an embassy and denounce the entire country for it.
I have to admit that I’m very uncomfortable with this idea that a poster has someone post an infammatory post for him. It seems to me to be a way of fanning the flame without taking the heat. Zenster has not been banned, so he has no reason for not posting this himself. If he has the time to compose and e-mail this type of thing to someone else, he has the time to post it himself and join in the argument. As it is, since the actual original poster apparently has no intention of either joining the discussion or rebutting the arguments, I’m going to close this thread.
