However, as much as we can accept that you hate Australia, you should realise that some of us love it. You dont have to agree with my viewpoint since I certainly dont agree with yours. The only difference is I voted with my feet on the issue and left the country that exasperated me.

Only time I feel a need to reach for the anti-depressents is when I read the bigotted shite spouted by some of the stuck-up nonentities on this forum.
