to be honest patriotism just encourages hatred for other countries in the first place, so I don't think you could really get much more racist than the original.

But you managed it!

see if you can fit an asylum seeker in there, too

# It's human nature
to want to belong to a tribe; be it a football team, model railway building club, a nation, or whatever.

Following, supporting and appreciating that tribe does not mean racism. I think you misunderstand the term.

Edit: Besides, it's not impossible the UK will be a muslim state in the next 50 years.

# I'd say it probably is impossible.
Given that the only people I can think of who are more insane and irrational that islamic extremists are Black Cab drivers.

I imagine they driving over to Mecca and running people down for kicks.

# Actually it's human nurture
It's something that has alays happened and so it's been passed down through generations. Because we've already had it, does that make it good? Tradition for tradition's sake?

# Why did you join b3ta?
It's a tribe in all the traditional senses.

Some animals move in packs, some don't. We do.
