Tell Tom Burke he's a damn immigrant from Jewishstan.



Sorry, you aren't "from" Libya if you've never lived there.

This is like me saying I'm "from" Poland.

So where am i from? I have no other nationality. I have no relatives/friends elsewhere, i have no affiliation to no other country.

Not the same thing. Thats all in the same country.

If i lived in any Libyan city all my life, i'd consider that city my home too.
But that's the point, you didn't live there.

I was born in Madison, lived for three years in Detroit, then spent the rest of my time in Frederick and Southern Pennsylvania. Even though I'd love to say I'm "from" Newport Beach, California, I can't say I am.

Why? Because that would make me a retard.

I have no other nationality other than Libyan nationality. Scotland is a country, i will probably never go to again in my lifetime. Unlike Libya, that i go to every summer, the country all my relatives live in. The only place where my family owns property. But still, you're saying i am not from Libya. Astonishing.

Oh and i'm not for open borders. I just think countries like the US should be a little more strict in their conditions for nationality/citizenship. There will be a lot less trouble if that happens imo



:heart:
Thats exactly the same thing for Rossi, but, on top of all that, he was also born and raised up in the US and he knows English better than Italian. So basically, I guess Rossi is more American then you're Libyan? He's an ass for choosing a country where he spent 3 years of his life.

So what do i do now?

My passport says i'm Libyan, all my friends, relatives, family, everyone i know considers me Libyan. Me and my family do not own property anywhere else other than in Libya.

So what do i do now, Andy? I only have a Libyan passport. Neither the Scottish nor the Emirati goverments recognize me as a citizen.

You're "from" where you have lived. That's the way it works. You know, stuff based on reality.

OK, fine. You're from Tatooine. Have yourself a drink from Mos Eisley Cantina. :pint:

I spent 0 years of my life in Libya. Unless you consider all the summers i go there, i guess if you add those up, they'd amount to a year :D

On a more serious note, i would choose Libya every day and all day over any other country.

That might be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.


I love America, but given the chance, I'd live in at least 4 or 5 other countries instead, and none of them in Asia, or Africa.

You see you're wrong there. Thats NOT the way it works. Thats the way it works in the US sure, its not the way it works here in the UAE. If you are born here and have lived 80 years in the country, you would still not get citizenship. So again, that is NOT how it works everywhere.

You still haven't given me a solution. Both the Scottish and UAE governments the two countries i've spent most of my life in, do not recognize me as a citizen.

I didn't mean that i want to live there. I meant that if i was a professional footballer, i'd choose the Libyan NT over any other. Because i consider myself Libyan, and would love to play for this flag.

Neither of them do because the Whites hate Muslims and the Emirati look down on Lesbiyans.


....I mean Libyans.

They can't look down on us. We're here to educate their backward arses, you know so they make the transition from camels to cars :snoop:

Libyans here, are professors, doctors and intellectuals!

That's why the UAE is a pretty idiotic place.

But if you've lived in Dubai all your life, you're from Dubai, not Alderaan.

That's just the way it works.

    Neither of course. I consider myself 100% Libyan. I also feel i don't deserve to have Scottish citizenship for that reason. But still, i could have easily got Scottish citizenship and leeched off their country and never considered myself Scottish. Economics 101, resources are limited, and more and more immigrants that are like Rossi are allowed to take advantage of a country's resources at the expense of real "Americans".

    My point. Stop giving out citizenship so easily.
    That's the difference between you and Rossi. He wants to be American. And Italian. You don't want to be Lybian, Scottish, UAE.

    To your citizenship point, it's difficult to change that when your nation is founded on it.

    Why can't anyone be an Emirati?
    Emirati people are tribal. As in they all belong to different tribes. Also, they are a minority in their own country, UAE nationals shape less than 20% of the population. So, they want to preserve their heritage, their customs, their traditions etc in the midst of this mass emigration that has been happening for the last two decades.

    I think they're perfectly within their right to do so.

    That's why the UAE is a pretty idiotic place.

    But if you've lived in Dubai all your life, you're from Dubai, not Alderaan.

    That's just the way it works.
    You can't be a citizen of any country if you aren't legally recognized as one. Why can't you just accept that the world does not all revolve around the US and the world does not all operate the "American" way?
