You're right. Every country they go to they first demand their rights. Then they demand their own spaces and special treatment. Then they want to sucede a section of the country. They have done this in every country and all of those countries are rife with inequities, sexism, racism, murder, war, you name it. Their Koran tells them to destroy the non-believers and that would be us.

Racism is discriminating against an individual or group due to their creed, colour, or religion.



If you say that you believe that there are too many muslims in this country then you are implying that some of the muslims should leave. As you have not given a suitable reason for this statement other than that the group is muslim your comment can only be interpreted as racist.



Also, you say that there are 'too many muslims in the country'. How many would you say would be an acceptable number? Your comment is a knee jerk reaction based on distrust of a group you know little or nothing about, fueled no doubt by recent events and the actions of a minority.

This must be the only country that keeps law breakers here sometimes taking up places in our prisons and the tax payer foots the bill. We even let those 11 plane high jackers stay last year. Watch out we are on track to make the cleric's dream come true and this will be a Muslim state. Westminster Abbey will be a Mosque. I'm not a racist just a realist

I agree people are too quick to hold up the race card even when nobody is being remotely prejudiced or racist. There are too many Muslims and other immigrants in this country and by saying this I am NOT racist, I am merely expressing a view about my country.

Its because the word "racist" is like "fascist" or "nazi". It saves the wanker using it from actually articulating an argument.

Half the time of course, there IS no argument ... there are too many muslims in this country. And who says so? The British public themselves, thats who!!

The fact that the government doesn't listen to them proves that it is the left-wing, the liberals and the muslims themselves that are the fascists!!

Too true. I dont have a problem with muslims or anyone but i do think that the UK has gone too far with political correctness. Statistically speaking the most prejudiced against group of people in the UK now is white hetrosexual males aged between 18 and 24.

There's a big difference between a legitimate disagreement with someone and saying "there's too many of you in this country".



Why do you feel there are too many muslims in your country? What's wrong with them being there? If the problem is just that "they're muslim", then you are prejudiced. If you have a cogent, reasonable argument I suggest you put it forward.

Yea, its because over here (the way you say brit makes me think you're from america) there is positive discrimination. Basically, the worst thing to be is a young white male. Its ok for gyms and car insurance and anything to spring up saying 'for women only' but if one springs up saying 'only for men' its sexist. There isnt (that i know of) anywhere that says for muslims only, but if there was it would be fine. its 'intregating them into society' Bollocks. Its putting htem above society. True equality is being able to say pakis or what ever and nobody batting an eyelid because we are all on the same level. Theres no discrimination implied in that word, its simply a shortening of pakistani. Its like on job applications, at the end they have section called 'ethnic monitoring' they say 'in the interests of monitoring our equal opportunities scheme please tick your race and gender' WHAT THE F**K?!!! Surely its easier not ot discriminate against somebody based on their skin colour if you DIDNT know that. In fact all it means is that 'so we can meet government quota and hire at least 10% of our staff as blacks asians and whatever, please tell us your race and gender so we can throw any white males in the bin, and keep black women' So wheres the equality in saying 'youre a white male, therefore we're not going to hire you'? I mean come on people, blacks, muslims, and whatever are walking around the city like they own us. Never has an ethnic moved out of my way, held the door for me etc. They just walk through you, because they are above us. How many times do i move out of hte way for htem? Hold the door for htem? All the time as i would for a white person. Since when does an english national (whatever colour) play second fiddle to every single foreigner? 'Birthplace: Mexico. English proficiency: Que?' 'oh hes mexican, we'd better hire him, itd be racist not to'

Genuine Question: Why are there too many muslims?



And if i swing its about a conflict between Christians and muslims, whats stopping me from saying there are too many christians in this nation.



Im neither christian nor muslim so im just taking a neutral position here and questioning.

you do no longer comprehend, do you? firstly, Muslims are a much extra favourite minority in the united kingdom, than in the u . s .. 2nd, Islam isn't a race, it relatively is a faith and Muslims are area of a non secular community, in a similar fashion Christians, Buddhists, and Hinduists are. third, it relatively is no longer that we predict of which you're all terrorist (it is stupid to think of that), yet I do see a sturdy relation between the adult males committed the outrageous act and Islam. Fourth, Islam is a topic for the politics of the united kingdom, Shariah is now being utilized in that us of a, do you comprehend what it skill? It skill there is not any democracy anymore. whilst a us of a makes specific rules for minorities and on a similar time this rules are per faith, the values of secularism and democracy are being handed over and persons do unlike that. And it relatively is no longer purely Britons, in France, the NL, Spain, Germany and Sweden, all and sundry is having comparable perspectives approximately your ideals adult males.

For the same reason that the border enforcement, anti illegal immigration folks in the U.S.A. are branded racist.



Playing the race card is the last gasp weak argument of people who have no real rhetoric to back up their stance.

Tell me about it!, I've been given two violation warnings and had two questions withdrawn this week, both of them, straight forward. As soon as THEY say you are a racists, thats it, you are. The tail is definatly wagging the dog in this country!

I don't know why .........



BUT, I do know know,

at age 10, there were:



1 West Indian family ,

2 Chinese families,

and one Jewish family ----- that lived in our town,

but none of them lived in my street of 22 council houses .........



by my age 20 there were about:

3 West Indian families,

half a dozen Chinese families,

still only one Jewish family,

1 Italian family that lived in our town,

and 4 Arab muslim families in our street............



by my age 40 there were:

still only 3 or 4 West Indian families,

only about 8 Chinese families,

the Jewish family moved away,

2 Italian families,

I German family, that lived in our town,



but now out of 22 council houses, only my mum, and 2 other neighbours are white, the other 19 are Arab muslim families..........



IS THIS RASCIST ????

NO, IT'S A FACT !!! ....



..... they called Enoch Powell a rascist, but he saw this coming did n't he !!!!



{{{ 1968: Powell slates immigration policy

The Conservative right-winger, Enoch Powell, has made a hard-hitting speech attacking the government's immigration policy.

Addressing a Conservative association meeting in Birmingham, Mr Powell said Britain had to be mad to allow in 50,000 dependents of immigrants each year.



He compared it to watching a nation busily engaged in heaping up its own funeral pyre.



The MP for Wolverhampton South West called for an immediate reduction in immigration and the implementation of a Conservative policy of "urgent" encouragement of those already in the UK to return home.

"It can be no part of any policy that existing families should be kept divided. But there are two directions on which families can be reunited," he said.



Like the Roman, I seem to see the river Tiber foaming with much blood



Enoch Powell

Mr Powell compared enacting legislation such as the Race Relations Bill to "throwing a match on to gunpowder".



He said that as he looked to the future he was filled with a sense of foreboding.



He estimated that by the year 2000 up to seven million people - or one in ten of the population - would be of immigrant descent.

Mr Powell, the shadow defence spokesman, was applauded during and after his 45-mintue speech.}}}



I don't agree with having so many muslims here either, so if that's rascist, then so be it ..........



I have no problem with 'peoples' who come here to live the British way of life..........

'when in Rome, do as the Romans do'

..... our religion, our benefits, our hospitals etc etc, if you want to come here, you must have a guaranteed permanent job before you get here,

you must earn enough to house, clothe,

feed yourself

....if you bring anyone with you,

they must do the same, or you must earn enough to keep them.

If your wife gets pregnant within the first 2 years,

or, if you become ill, within the first 2 years,

or, if you lose your job, within the first 2 years

...you must pay for this yourself, hospital bills, medicines, enough money to live on whilst you find employment if you lose your job, EVERY EXPENSE .... you will not receive any personal state benefits of any kind, nor shall you receive housing or council tax benefits, and if you do not have the money to pay for these things, then you must leave the country, no whinging, no whining, no 'human rights', if you fk up your out.

AND if you, or any of your family are 'convicted', of any offence, whether it be traffic, theft, fraud, cruelty to animals, whatever, anything, then your out of the country, no whinging, no whining, no 'human rights', if you fk up your out.

its the way you state things, most people say things without backing them up such as... those palestinians are all terrorists etc..... most people in the west are ignorant and only believe what is fed to them through newspapers such as the Sun and Sky television.



be open minded and search for things yourself, that way you wil be able to better express your differences without offending anyone!

The non PC brigade, the silent majority are popping up and we are being heard, we are no longer racist, but who cares, names never hurt me.
