It really struck home to me recently that you guys can say anything in public to anyone in America and people like Kid Rock can say this shit without appearing to incite hate and be accountable criminally. Double edged sword I suppose. Over here it's way different and we are therefore more circumspect or cautious about who we offend (believe it or not David it's true...I have limits to my verbal diarrhoea)...

people can wander around over there dressed in all sorts of controversial stuff but here we are expected and rightfully so to avoid causing offence (yes believe it or not David I can do that!).

I suppose that is partly why we don't have many rampant Trump figures..the shiftiest is usually Nigel Farage and now increasingly Liz Truss. Trying to imitate your right wrong idiots. Failing miserably because as soon as they are back here they are accountable.
