I'm Not Racist But .........
140 Answers
Sadly, whenever discussing ethnic issues, I have to try and establish the fact that I am not a racist.
But of course, the phrase, " I am not a racist but .....", is an open invitation, for the politically correct, and "holier than thou, " brigade to strut their stuff, promoting themselves, and pushing down on honest posters like me.
So, "I am not a racist, " but that phrase should not prohibit me from discussing ethnically sensitive issues, which should not be sensitive at all, and we should be able to address the issues of African immigration by shouting from the rooftops, "Enough, no more, send them back!", without denigrating remarks from Liberal Lefties.

To shy away from the truth is cowardly and exactly what the Police and Social Services did when presented with evidence of Asian grooming gangs.
No I am certainly not racist but I am a realist.

You say you are not a racist, and then - as evidenced on your previous thread - you offer opinions that directly contradict that assertion.
You are lumping together an entire ethnic group as being guilty of being criminals by virtue of that ethnicity - that it coper-bottomed racism, and - as with your Christian debates - you are content to label anyone who calls you on it a 'lefty', or imply that they simply don't understand the world as you do.
Try dialling down your slef-pity, look at what you post, look at the responses, and accept that maybe you are that which you deny.
People would at least respect you for defending your position, however abhorrent it may be - it's the self-pity that won't stand up.

It links in with your personality - as evidenced by your posts on religion and race -
You believe you know best, which is fine, but you decry and insult people who don't agree with you, and then cry foul and bleat about how people 'attack you'.
That's not debate, that is thin-skinned selfishness.

Reverse racism - Cheshire Police just found guilty of discrimination for refusing a job to a white heterosexual man. In the interests of diversity of course.
The BBC are notorious for this. Just look at the percentage of news reporters and ethnic minority actors in their dramas.
It's ridiculous and an insult to our intelligence.
