But if you want your own freedom to think in the way you want to, at the same time you have to allow others to have the freedom to think in the way THEY want to. And if this means some Finns will give you less opportunity because you're a shirker in their eyes, who are you to tell them how to think?
If you want the:
it's my life, I will do what I want to do
You have to allow others the same luxury, no?
I am not generalizing anything. As I said, it's just some people who are not tolerant enough. My comment was only towards them. Btw, most of the Finns are one of the best groups of people on this planet! I love living with Finns in this country. No complains so far, maybe because I accept there are few exceptions in every group of people. Finns are no exception.
Tolerant and tolerant.. im tolerating muslims. jehovas, believers in general. green party, WHO, green peace and others. In some point you cant just tolerate more.
Defence means safety to me, i wont tolerate someone who thinks his shiny ass is too good for defence training. Defence force is there to defend us and every one is has to take a part of it, russia would be delighted if there wasnt one.
To me that someone is not willing to take a part is direct insult. There is freedom to do civil service or serve time in jail and if you really want to do that then do, i have freedom to look you as lesser being. World is full of choises.
If you dont do army it means to me that you dont find finland is worth of protect and thats insult, bad insult.
Youre free to do what you want to do but there are consequenses so act accordingly.
I tolerate but there is no force big enough to force me to tolerate someone who wants destroy society, be it treehugging hippies or whatever i will show my hatred, theyre still free to do what they want to do but so am i free to express how i feel about it.
See freedom to be who you are and freedom to express, you can be whatever you want but remind that society will kick back (and its using steeltip boots).
