You are obviously a racist if you don't give a toss about multiculturalism, luckily all your kids and grandkids will be mixed race so you will need to reject your racism at some point.

What?! How is that possibly racist? I don't want my grandkids to be white, I don't want them to be anything. I'll accept them however they happen to come, how's that racist? What I'm saying is that I look past race and am happy to accept whatever people are like in 50 years.

I don't make friends based on race either, I don't try to be tokenist and have one of each. I'll be literally friends with anyone. As I said, star sign means as much to me as race. That's the opposite of racism, I have zero prejudices based on race, whether positive or negative. I deal with individuals, not stereotypes.

I agree. We are all 'earth dwellers' and it seems absurd to separate the worlds population by artificial means. A multicultural society is a much more interesting society in my opinion, and I think we should work towards one.

However, I think there are problems with mass immigration which need to be tackled and it doesn't mean you're racist if you think we are going about the change to a multicultural society too quickly.

I wouldn't say it's something to celebrate, but it's hardly the demise of British culture.




I never said it was discredited because the mail reported it? I just call it the fail because it likes to scare monger. In my post I simply questioned the conduct of the reserach, it's mentioned in the report that some of the study was done in the London boroughs. London is the most ethinically diverse city in the country, so the findings are hardly surprising.

If by 'diverse' you mean anything but white, then yes, it's 'diverse'. 8% of white children up to 11 in Newham is an absolute joke. I live near Newham and it's a terrible area, but that's no surprise. There is a strong correlation between 'ethnic minorities' and terrible areas.

Examples: Bradford, Luton, Newham, Tower Hamlets and the list goes on and on.

Slight digression, but, there may be a correlation, but what's the cause?

Eugh. Why is Britain or America not being majority White an inherently good thing?

The US is a lot different to the UK, not least b/c every who isn't Native-American/Indian, is an immigrant to the country. The largest population increase in the US is amongst the Hispanic-American and African-American population currently, so its just the next-stage of the cycle from Whites. Its not an inherently good or bad thing either way; its just how the cycle continues.

No problem at all, I just mean this article is so obviously trying to exploit peoples fears of change in ethnic makeup of the country by talking about immigration birth rates but they conveniently omit white non-Brits when it suits their agenda. More an observation than anything, I'm not white and I don't really care about this whole thing one way or the other.

Ah, I misinterpreted your post, carry on.

Source? And your mispelling changes the entire sentance in epic proportions

Focus more on your own misspellings.

That I do not know, but there is definitely a correlation. Devon, an ethnically homogeneous region, has very little crime and is generally a desirable place to live. Could you say the same for any area I listed?

Now you could say that Devon is only 1 place and that other ethnically homogeneous areas such as Glasgow aren't as nice to live in, and I'd have to agree. Someone needs to find the cause and fix it, because as I said these regions are really unpleasant.

Yeah just keep telling yourself that. Guess what? Nick Griffin also denies that he is a racist.

Yes, and then, once we've taken over.....all honkies will go into the giant blender.

Think about it this way, white people will actually be exotic.

What do you mean 'Will be' ? White people are only 9% of the world's population, you're already exotic!

And people who aren't racist also deny it. Why? Because they aren't.

The idea of being racist disgusts me, just as homophobia does. It's a shameful outlook, and a rude thing to wantonly go around accusing people of being. You'd apologise if you had any manners.

Edit: What partially gripes is that I entered this thread with the intention of arguing with some racists, putting across the opposite view. Now I've somehow ended up having to unjustly defend myself, presumably because you thought it'd be a funny thing to accuse me of.

That aint advice you wanna be takin, everyone knows that dem niggaz are fast like the Bolt, if you a white boy u will never outpace em.
just dont go outside ya get me?

Your words, aren't they?

Oh good, another racial nutter, just what we need...

[Nightstar-27]

You know what. I don't care, I won't be hating or celebrating this. I don't judge people on their skin colour cause I know what variation is. I realised everyone is different, not even all white people are the same shade of white so its pretty stupid to judge someone on their melanin levels. I won't celebrate a completely mixed race world as only a fool would think this would solve the worlds problems and everyone will start treating each other equally. It won't even end racism as even mixed race people can be different shades and their will be chance their children will have the characteristics of someone who is not mixed race. We're all related 7 time over any ways so we're already 'mixed race'.

My only concerns are culture clashes and riots from clashes between supremists (and no not just white supremists).

I don't think this is necessarily the case. I'm not too happy with the statistic. It reflects the rate of immigration into this country and I believe at certain rates, such as what would be needed for 1 in 4 school children to be of ethnic minority, make integration difficult as immigrants tend to stick with their own kind.

My point being you can have a strong opinion on this without being racist.

Forgive my phrasing. Looking at the implications of a statistic and applying them to areas worthy of interest, such as unsustainable levels of immigration, is an intelligible thing to do and I wouldn't dream of calling your a bigot for it. However, for many people this statistic is the message and the evidence combined, all in one, and feeling too strongly about it in that light is clearly race oriented with no actual bearing on social stability or quality of life in itself. Many people will look at this and feel like they're engaged in some sort of "race war", and that's the strong emotional response I was trying to refer to, because people who fall on either side of said war are by definition being driven by base ethnicity making it, by the strictest of definitions, "racist".

I'd like a white majority state, thank you very much.

I'm not a racist, and I don't consider white people superior to any other race. However, I do think that this nation's heritage and traditions should be respected.

By that same logic, I also think it would be horrible if Nigeria had a mass influx of white people, or if Japan had a mass influx of Japanese.

In all seriousness, I don't understand this boner over treating patches of land like they're sentient beings. Sure, culture is great and fitting into societies which you're moving to is important, but never at any point in history has a society remained completely static. People are so obsessed with maintaining the status quo that they refuse to see that things have never and will never just remain the same. As a species, our societies are by the very virtue of what makes us human in a constant state of flux. I know it seems like I'm shooting way too far ahead, but one day we're going to have to colonise space together and leave this rock behind, but if hardcore nationalists still want to remain in their little countries when the time comes then so be it.

I will never be able to understand why some people are so adamant in resisting the tides of change instead of riding the currents to their advantage.

The bold bit - I blame tiredness and alcohol!

As for the rest of it, I just don't think it's too much to ask for each nationality to have their own bit of land.

Maybe people in the South see it differently, but up here, it's almost exclusively white. Now, don't get me wrong, I have no problem with any other race, I really don't. I just think that if people want to be amongst their own, they should be able to
