Who believes Trump?

Ok, I'll stick to the facts of what was actually said. Holding views regarding immigration and wanting to address its effects, even to reduce it, is a normal and natural part of our political debate, or should be. But when people start coming out with stuff about whether "these people" are "taking over" and how this is eroding our culture, I find it creepy. Maybe you don't, but maybe you have only ever seen these things expressed over a screen, and maybe the sentiments have never been addressed to you or your family in the past.

 

The word used was "immigration." Not "aspects of..." or anything else. There was a focus on "black and ethnic" school children to illustrate the point, and the suggestion that anyone who doesn't see "what's going in" is blind. It was suggested that "these people" are engaged in a "take over," and that British culture has been destroyed. I'm sorry, I've heard all this stuff too many times. I know what it is.

 

Nah sorry, you're just incorrect here. I can understand why you're vigilant and hypersensitive about this sort of thing, but you're targeting the wrong man here and reading all sorts of meaning into a poorly-worded forum post from one of the good guys. Don't make enemies of people who are certainly likely to be allies in what you/we oppose. As I mentioned, I'm an ethnic minority myself. Please let this drop for your own sanity as well as the group's. I have opposed, debated and refuted extremists on the Far-Right for many, many years, and can assure you that none of them regularly contribute to this forum. I have actually wretched over my toilet bowl after hearing some of their repulsive statements once the mask slips. They become extremely easy to identify after a while. They are devious and sick people who cloak their bigotry very well, due to them having had many years of practice, my friend. You've already made an erroneous assumption about a member of this forum who is also a minority. Please consider it possible that you may be very mistaken on this occasion.

The subject of immigration will never be addressed all the time people throw their hands in the air with horror as soon as the subject is spoken about.
It's never discussed properly and it's almost like if we don't talk about it ,it will go away.
You can't change people's thinking by gagging them.
Only a sensible honest discussion can do that.

I'm not referring to here on GC I'm talking about in much higher places.

 

Superb, how do they produce these memes so quickly.

 

Why does every forum thread/online newspaper comments section/etc. about Trump descend into an arguement?

All I'll say about is that I'm proud my father fought the Blackshirts in London during the 1930's and I'm also proud he got chucked out the Young Communist League for being a troublemaker.
