i'm assuming you mean xenophobic

[EDDIE51]

It is Racist but it is also amazingly stupid , ignorant and bigoted.
Yet another case of The Daily Wail following its policy to invoke outrage and so satisfy its readers.

[ummmm]

Yes...it is a bit.

No

The Northern League is Italy's equivalent to UKIP.

Yes so sorry about that, these 'phobic' roll out uncontrollably these days, not always in the right order as the late great Eric Morecambe would say.

[Jackdaw33]

I agree there, AOG. Dare to disagree with anything and you are instantly labelled xxxxphobic. Phobia, from the Greek 'phobos', means fear, not dislike or disagreement.

This appears to be along same lines as what we have heard recently about the Royal Family being ‘tainted’ by Meghan Merkel.

But how could the white Italian race be wiped out?

Surely it would only happen if every single Italian decided to have children exclusively with non-white people? If that were to happen, then as a race, white Italians would disappear within one generation.

However, as this is unlikely to happen.

...but then again - what a wonderful result that would be! No racism, because everyone would be a lovely shade of Halle Berry/Leona Lewis/Lewis Hamilton.

The Daily Mail publishes what is actually going off in this world of ours, those that wish to bury their heads in the sand are free to do so, unlike the Daily Mail readers who's newspaper/web-site some would like to see banned because it proves 'bad news' for their own particular left-wing agenda.

The Daily Mail publishes stories with their twist on it - that makes it no longer quite true but not enough of a lie that they get called out about it!!

From a black person I would expect nothing different, but please may I ask you, what would your reaction be if it was the fear of the Black nations being 'wiped out' along with their culture?

But then perhaps it would be better asking this question to a black person actually choosing to living in Africa along with it's ancient culture?

You have made a serious accusation, please could you provide the proof of any lies that they have told appertaining to this report.

[jackthehat]

Wow.....that would be an astoundingly unpleasant post whoever posted it......but seeing as it is from you AOG, it's not a shock.

[Islay]

AOG - I did not say this story I said the Daily Mail, as in general - Have a look at the ' NHS Political correctness' thread - also a Dail Mail story and already proved to be not quite true - just their little twist.

[Mamyalynne]

I think Attilio is a little histrionic if anything.

[Islay]

As for it being an accusation - sue me!!

I am always here to please, so pleased that I didn't shock you, knowing what a sensitive creature that you happen to be.

As a species I think that we have more important issues to worry about than the colour of our skin.

I am an white male in his 60s and I live on the edge of Birmingham.

I go up to Birmingham city centre about once a month to take photographs.

There are times, as I am walking round the city, that I feel like a stranger in my own country due to the number of Asians, Africans, Chinese etc.

On the other hand I went to Seville a year or so back for a few days and it was a pleasure to walk round a large city and see very few "ethnic minorities".

So it just shows you that depending where you live the "immigration" situation can be a large problem, or something that you are not aware of.

While the whites will not be "wiped out" we already have a situation in Birmingham where about 50% of the population are "immigrants" or descended from immigrants.

We also have areas where 100% of the population are Asian or other ethnic groups, and 100% of the children at the schools in those areas are Asian or other ethnic groups.

So it IS an issue that Europe needs to do something about as the "whites" could be a minority is some parts of some countries over the next few decades.

[jackthehat]

I wonder what the citizens of Seville were thinking, looking around them at the 'non-indigenous' faces around them...?
