Why did I get a YA violation report for saying that Brits' really do have bad teeth?

Because it is an offensive generalization. While it is true that some, or even many, people from the UK have crooked or decayed teeth, not all do. It would be like saying Americans are obese. And by the way, some of your comments in this question were offensive as well. I advise you make an effort to be more polite and open minded.

Probably because is was a statement and not an actual question.

Some people on here are so heavy on the reporting button. I'd like to see the names of the people who report to be shown on the violation.

Look at it this way, they can't have much of the life if they reported that question.

ha ha .. hey I watched a bbc documentary about how americans are suffering during the down turn.. and all i could think during the show was, they've got a cheek to comment on the state our teeth..

you seem to think what, British people are genetically different to the rest of humanity by virtue of their teeth? what an ugly fucker you must be..that's something you must be aware of about yourself huh..

Because it's true what they say, the internet really is controlled by a mafia of professional complainers who make a point of making scandals out of nothing and getting things banned, and rolling back freedom of speech.

And board moderators are willing slaves to these people - presumably because they're so $h!t-scared of getting sued.

I've watched Jerry Springer, Maury, Steve Wilkos and I can say hand on heart, there's some bad american teeth out there.

Because you are incorrect. The Dental survey of 2012 showed that most British people have good teeth.

Do you know that really was the reason ? I am English and what you say does seem to be widely believed,but did you say it in the form of a rant ? You seem to be in Spain.I wondered why it bothered you what Brits teeth were like ? Have you appealed?

What do you expect? You spend a great deal of time criticising and making snide comments about the UK. I've never once seen you write anything positive. You seem intent on antagonising and irritating British people at every given opportunity, so you shouldn't be that surprised about it.

There are a couple on here with pointless empty lives who love to press that button.

Seven is right, the names of those reporting a question should be shown, before it is removed...

because you pissed off some brit.

that is the problem with yahoo...you say something that is true and somebody gets their knickers in a twist and you get a violation. the whole thing is asinine. but the true culprit is pc.

ban it immediately and the world will be better off.

Even the UK parliament agrees.

Possibly dental decay is affecting peoples' minds. It seems to me that a nation in denial about bad teeth will never eat fruit and veg because you cannot with porcelain choppers.

You already KNOW the answer to that question. Stereotyping ANY individual or group is not on is it.

Rather like saying that ALL Americans are red-necks. I'm sure there are some that are not.

sounds like you asked no clear question. Statements are liable to be deleted.

lots of them do somebody reported you cause they are probably British it happens and took it wrong hey I have family members over there and their amazing people !
