I'm not arguing against diversity. I happen to live in an extremely diverse neighborhood. I just wonder whether the whole diversity thing is a result of white people's self hate and guilt. It really is only white people who cherish the concept.[/quote]
Bolding mine...and you're RIGHT! The ethinic minorities flooding this country don't LOVE diversity...they want to live in their own country INSIDE the USA !


Some here want to embrace diverity????

Do you approve of female genital mutilation...that's plenty DIVERSE!
Now happening HERE in the good ol' USA!

Do you approve of "honor killings'....nice diversity
Happening HERE in the good ol' USA!

Do you approve of groups where the men dress like normal Americans and the women are forced to be covered head to toe in drapes? How enlightened is that...is THAT the future you want for women in the Land of the Free?



Do you approve of the fact that some minorities are hired over natural born American citizens who have been working HERE all their lives and can speak, read and understand English?
You know why they're hired? Because they will work 24/7, take abuse on the job without objecting, work for any amount of pay no matter how low.....know where THAT sends the U.S.? Right down the path to third world country status...and these DIVERSE people will lead the way.




All that but HEY, if ya get a good restaurant who cares!!!!
Take a deep breathe & calm down, your hysteria isn't proving any points.

I think you're misconstruing a lot of what you're reading.

Most of us have no problem with natural diversity; it's forced, contrived diversity for the sake of making ourselves feel more cultured that many of us have a problem with...and I think so should you.

People treating others like a pet or a museum display is diversity for the wrong reason.

No, I perceive you as someone who overreacts to things. Yeah, so? These things happen? You're taking events & twisting it to make it appear that this is something that will overtake our country. You're hiding your racism behind a veil of "concern" over problematic events that have no important bearing on us. If you don't wish to be a part of diversity, why not move to a place such as Connecticut or maybe Oklahoma or Kansas where it's as white as white can be? For the rest of us, we're not scared of perceived threats to our race, nor are we waiting w/bated breathe for the end to come, diversity is diversity, plain & simple.

This is true. What's going on w/the "quote" feature, it doesn't seem to be doing its job correctly.

You think I'm racist for posting facts...well, that's another EASY OUT because you can't face the facts of what is happening in this country.

You think I'M racist...but when immigrants crowd together in one spot, refuse to speak English, refuse to socialize with whites, refuse to adapt to the the ways of the country they are In, refuse to obey OUR laws, ...they AREN'T ????

Yeah, I'm done. I don't have problems w/other nationalities, you do. I don't see that immigrants have pulled down this country, you do. I don't perceive groups of immigrants as threats, you do. I embrace diversity, you don't.

yeah, the quote feature does seem to be messed up. I thought that the two of you were just so blinded with rage that you weren't using it correctly.
