Yes, you can.
That attitude is indicative of hollow pride and absent self-respect. If your pride and self-respect can be damaged by someone else's words and you need to defend it by any means necessary, then you really need to re-evaluate the grounds it is built on. Either the insult given to you is true, in which case it'll hurt your pride because it deserved to be hurt or it is a lie, in which case it won't bother you. The more uncertain you are of your own pride and self-respect, the more vigorously you'll fight to defend it.
And what is it with you and dogs? What did they ever do to you that you are always talking about being treated like one?
Obviously, he/she/it treats animals poorly. Why would spit and kick a dog? Did the dog attack you?
Pride can and have started wars, and for what? Vanity! Most Muslims are so insecure of their vanity, and how they appear to other Muslims. That is why you have force marriages, honor killings, and so on. They treat outsiders like crap, and it suppose to be peaceful. The competition causes so many issues. The belief that god is on your side, because you are fortunate to have inherited wealth is sad and pathetic.
And well, I really have no idea what you're talking about. In Turkish society, there are no forced marriages, or honour killings, other than the case in which the honour of two men is under question, in which case, it is for men to decide.
Besides, I don't know how one can be "insecure of one's vanity", while vanity means that one is simply too secure about oneself. I don't see this among too many muslims, as I feel that many muslims are today insecure, which is the reason that they are losing. If they had any shred of pride left, they(by which I mean muslims like the rich Arabs) would shed the shackles of the west, and fight. Yet as again, it is up to us, the Turks to save the pride of the muslims, as we have done before.
Besides, I don't think you've come to have a taste of our famous hospitality. We would feed and clothe you, and give you a place to stay even if you were an outsider. Though being an outsider, you obviously do not appreciate our hospitality, as you're foreign to the concept in your own country. Best you stay away from places you don't understand. Some, who are as you, have come here, and have forgotten their place as guests and have acted in ways as though as they are masters of the place, desecrating our flags and national symbols, and they have suffered the consequences. Those who have respected us, on the other hand, have been treated in the best way we can treat a person, more so than our own, as we value guests in our house. But we will not stand for troublemakers!
