Absolutely agree that friends can have differing points of view and should be able to have "spirited" conversations regarding those opinions. One of the most important ways to validate ones thinking, logic and conclusion. And at the end of the day, still have each others back and respect for each other. Lifes experiences bring so many different perspectives.
Take care and hope to meet up here again in another thread
“Wow, that many and potential freepers here. All of sudden not feeling all alone. All my expat contacts very liberal, anti bush, pro obama, anti america.”
Yeah, pretty typical here and I’ve found the Brits are the worst. I completely avoid any kind of political discussion with them especially revolving around firearms.
Not that it’s much of a sampling - I pretty well keep to myself, but most of the conservative expats I’ve met here are Dutch.
