[WikiEN-l] Civility poll results

[Fayssal F.]

I am afraid it is not accurate. In footbal (soccer), FIFA delivers the same
yellow and red cards to all referees around the world. [[FIFA Disciplinary
Code]] regulates not just civility but far beyond that and it it certainly
governs the professional lives of millions of players.

But why am I talking about sports disciplinary codes? Just go to another
country and tell them that you are a foreigner and you'd probably deserve to
be exempted from following their code of law!

The idea that we are diverse and think differently has little basis when
being uncivil.
