That was a fantastic rant! I feel exactly the same way. In fact, I have a chip on my shoulder about people of ANY race taking pride in their heritage, but let's not get into that.

Though, in my country, things are tipping a little over to the wrong side now. Ever since 9/11 people here have dropped the uber-PC act and started feeling comfortable expressing their fear (in all its ugly forms) for your ordinary, everyday muslim. Here's to hoping that'll sort itself out in the coming years. Political correctness is nice, but it's easily turned into a stranglehold.

Er, getting a bit off topic here, but at least we're still in the Philosophy forum. :sunglasses
