Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansyou can if they behave as an immigrant would, in many ways, as many do(Original post by moonmonkey812)
What a stupid comment. First of all not all South Asians are muslims, secondly how can you describe someone who was born in this country an immigrant? That just doesn't make any sense. -
Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansIf you're either english, scottish or welsh I would like to create a deliberately inflammatory and polemic topic that anyone can join in on concerning whether your consider British born Pakistanis/Bangladeshis to be a true part of british society or, to fuel the flames and throw this one out there, do you still consider them as either 'inferior' or 'foreign'.(Original post by noorkhanuk85)

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansYou have gone way beyond reasoning, I don't want to talk to a vile and horrible person like you.(Original post by RyanT)
Because they have the culture of foreigners (see: mosque/family relationships/home dress/cuisine) and the race of foreigners.
Viewed in that light, why would we even care whether the hospital they crawled into this world from is in birmingham or baluchistan?
Read watching the English (yes, I'm aware that Welsh and Scots are Brits too). If you struggle with anthropology that is your intellectual issue, but it is not a valid point in a debate.
Born to foreign mothers and brought up in a life of a foreign culture.
The Chinese in the UK get the balance right, south Asians act like some conquering race worshipping their *** god.
Do yourself a favour and rub the hatred on you're skin, it won't do you any favours in the future!
Period!! -

Re: Whites only: Your views on asians
asians?
well, there are lots of different asians. the pakistani community in certain places has a racist and supremacist attitude. certain parts of the country are no go zones for whites or non muslim asians.
pakistanis are widely regarded as the most racist group in britain today. -
Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansThere remains a distinction between legal citizenship and my personal views. You shouldn't ignore this for the sake of an insult.(Original post by RyanT)
Why the measly mouthed qualitive "productively" ?
If you want to say they're not British, at least be a man enough to actually say what you think. -
Re: Whites only: Your views on asians
I'm half Asian. But no one ever realises. Even when I tell them they think I'm pulling their leg. Most people at most think I'm Portguese or Italian. Either way, you'd be surprised how many convos you hear with racial slurs in them when you are...
The Undercover Asian!

Re: Whites only: Your views on asians
no human is 'inferior' to even hint at it is ludicrous.
I have no issue with the colour of anyone's skin, the religion they practice or what language they speak at home.
Your skin shouldn't effect anything if you're judged it should be for your own personality and actions not your ethnicity or as a 'stereotype'. -
Re: Whites only: Your views on asians
I think this thread is a bit silly. A lot of Asian and Caribbean people, as well as other parts of the commonwealth, came to the UK after the Second World War to help the country with running the economy as there was a depleted workforce. Just because someone may have a different skin colour doesn't mean that they're not British. The way I would categorise someone as being British is whether they were born in the country or whether they have lived in the country a while, speak English and have successfully integrated into society rather than choosing to isolate themselves from society and encourage segregation. I think the colour of the person's skin is irrelevant, obviously entering the country illegally is bad but if they were born here or have come here legally and contribute to society then I see no reason why they wouldn't be considered as British.

unfortunately, i could go on for a while listing white victims of asian race hate gangs.
( i am not calling all pakistanis racist, just that there is a big problem with racism in the community that no one wants to talk about. ) -
Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansNobody ever said they were inferior as a human being, it was a question about identity.(Original post by Bohedie)

Re: Whites only: Your views on asiansIm white english but amuslim and I go to the mosque. Im not asian at all . Also how do you define british behaviour?(Original post by RyanT)
Using the word Asians is unfair, the Chinese/East Asians are nothing like the south Asians.
East Asians are fairly well integrated and it is fair to call them equals.
South Asians that go to the mosque? No, that's not British behaviour so they're still immigrants regardless of where they're born.
), but its a sigh of relief that the majority thought what i expected. arguments were still expected.
