What's with the whole immigration policy thing (British politics)? For God's sakes, the so-called "immigrants" are the back bone of this country, they are the intelligent minority! ...And in my view, it is a racist thing!

Whilst, we're in the pubs, they are working their butts off to get a decent living!

It's amazing you're reading this, surprise... you still are.

Talk for yourself mate; I'm not in the pub, and I do work my butt off.

BTW, what's with this recent phase of one question threads? And are you like Spidyfans alter-ego but with like more serious questions? So one minute it's "Why are cartoons so super?", then we get hit by "Why does rape not get a longer conviction?" type questions.

I mean you do realise this may be a general talk forum, but it is in a game programmers site. Why not ask this sort of question on a political site? Hell, most people here haven't even left school, let alone got a job.

Right, back to work. Note it's a sunday, and I'm not an immigrant.

Cheers

I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing

Of course it is.... NOT!

The problem is the people who get in illegially, ie dont ask for asylum - they are a dangerous unknown.

judging by the last thread you started, you're a very narrow minded person aren't you?

sure, lets open our ports to EVERYONE, and suddenly our population will increase 10 times over, we have enough homeless and jobless people already, our nhs couldnt cope with any sort of increase in population, and think of our economy. how the hells it racist to try keeping our country stable?

at the moment britains population is stable. death rate and birth rate and migration/immigration rate are firmly in the balance.

Australia has the right idea...let no f**ker in.

I have seen on many many occasions where the immigrants are racist towards us.

Just a few examples that make me really angry

1. On St. Georges Day we the natural born citizens of this country are not permitted to wear our rose or fly our flag in the communities where immigrants reside, because they say it offends them.

2. Santa Claus is banned in said communities for the same reasons as above.

3. For those who come in and work their butts off and help the country, I have no quabble with, but for those who come in and leech off the country for the rest of their lives, and then start revoking our patriotic rights? Who do they think they are.

If you read carefully you will know that I am NOT being racist and anybody who percieved that post as racist has a narrow mind.

I don't mind immigrants and refugees who come into our country - and genuinely want to be here; they work here and earn a living and contribute to society

What I DO NOT LIKE, are these people are manage to get into our society, do nothing, leech off supports and benefits (constantly) - also those who 'preach' radical beliefs (terrorism based) etc.

If people come here, and don't contribute (like the radical thing I mentioned) then why are they here? People such as terrorists & 'non-contributors' should be deported immediately

We only let in the people with cash, so it is likely that if you came by boat (or even swam!) that you'd be turned away. However, if you had arrived in a private jet then you would have been allowed access... hence our increasingly large number of Chinese/Asian immigrants.

We need to get over this political correctness thing. I can't care less whether anybody's a minority or a majority, just give them equal treatment.

And that doesn't include giving special treatment to minorities. Because that's racist towards the majority. But then again, you have to remember that in the government's minds racism only occurs if the victim is part of a minority.

Sorry for ranting, but this PC business is driving me up the wall.

For example, a DISABLED person was prosecuted for discriminating against a disabled couple when he said there were no spaces in his campsite for them. Turns out he'd said that because there were no suitable spaces as their wheelchairs would get caught in the mud. But no, he was prosecuted. And now he's in debt.

Facts are meaningless.
You could use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true.

How do you cause an obstruction with a flag?

i think they were reffering to like big ones that people hang out of windows and they like droop into the pavement below where people are trying to walk etc.

anyway... all this talk of "leaching"

very few immigrants actually get in and leach off us. whats funny is its normally chavs that you see mobbing immigrants, when 1 chav probably receives more benefits than a whole family of refugees.

ReneGade 12345 seems to be on some balls-out mission to create controversial (but fucking pointless) threads in this forum. For that reason alone I am locking this now.

Start any more and I'll newbie slap you for a month bud.

A great many people think they are thinking when they are really rearranging their prejudices.
