And despite what some liberal idiot put into Wikipedia, there is no such race as Asian British or Irish British. But you folk will keep insisting creating these stupid labels.

Religious garment or not, as far as I'm concerned it has always been and always will be a sign of oppression against women. Keep it out of the Western world where women aren't treated as objects.

dennispenn wrote: » Why doesn't that surprise me? I think it is your goodself that have the issues. The two cultures are intertwined so much and closely related through heritage and a shared language that it is only a complete arsehole that would try and break the relationship down further and describe themselves as British Irish.

Unless you want to talk about race related to ethnicity, in which case its a rather mixed "race" considering the Saxons, Normans, Celts, french, etc. And in more modern times, Indian, Chinese, and many other Asians along with Africans. So.. as for creating labels... that seems to be something of a fad these days. But Asian British is no less odd than Irish American, or African American... The link of ethnicity with a nationality is rather common across the world. Imperial powers did have a large amount of immigration from their colonies. But the simple fact is that immigration, and "cross-breeding" of races has been going on for a very long time. The idea that any race is completely pure is the stuff of fantasy with the exception of a few races in very remote areas, and even then, I wouldn't be so sure of it. It's a silly argument.

You never see a thread where people are saying that we need to ban Halloween costumes because it harms our ability to identify people. Seriously, on halloween we'd have 100k people dressed up, many with masks on. We don't complain about them, it's the less that 100 women who wear a burka.Don't get me wrong. I don't like the burka. I think it's silly and stupid. But there's a lot of things I think are silly and stupid, especially religious stuff. However we can't start banning something just because we don't like it. And the only practical reason to stop women wearing it is identification. But since we're only picking on women who wear the burka and not every other potential face covering, we're picking on them because of their religion.

At this stage, considering the number of the threads that have arisen on AH regarding Muslims or Immigration, It's not difficult to notice the main ways to shut them down. Racism is easily one of the quickest ways.

When i walk down the street i dont see a black or brown or white person i just see a person. He claims that "the white man is being replaced" (he bought colour into it not me) so i have simply asked what "the white man" is being replaced with and why the tone of someone's skin matters to him.

I will save you the bother of looking. And its 20 years since i looked. You can't be,there is no such thing as white English according to your stupid document but there is such a thing as Asian British because a piece of paper tells you so? You libtards will grasp anything at all to shout down a point of view that differs from your own belief system. Each idiotic argument you put up will usually have racist or nazi or both thrown in there. What is the comment or comments I have posted that stirred you to place the racist tag on me? Tell me so I can purge my wrongdoings immediately. ��

Any suggestion of race superiority or "white" nations, brings up the racism issue, and the links to the Far Right. Hence, a very quick ending to a discussion, as shown in other threads. I live in a country with roughly 1.4 billion Chinese people, with extremely few other races in comparison. Trust me, I'm well aware of race, it's issues, and what it's like to be a minority. And I too don't really see skin color, and it's not particularly important to me. Cultural background and political interests are far more important a factor.
