Mr Shoe Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Problem with most arguments behind preventing immigration is that they are fundamentally racist. that statement is true. most. but there are some anti-immigration arguments which are valid and yet get drowned out by the R word.

Yes, they seem to either rest on hypocritical understandings of economics or racism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pragmatopian Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I still stand by that claim, just as I will when I say that the majority of drug dealers on the Island are white foreiners. interesting link. http://www.gov.im/lib/docs/dha/police/annu...ort20072008.pdf Where do I go to claim back the 5 minutes of my life I spent skimming through that report to see that there's nothing in there to support your argument?

Yes, been through it carefully. No mention of white Eastern Bloc residents being involved in violence. As to "white" drug dealers - are you saying that Liverpool is an Eastern Bloc country? Finally, just speculation of course, I wonder if the IOM Constabulary is aware of racists in their ranks? I wonder if PC 54 knows any? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK my point is, give these people regardless of colour equal opportunities, decent housing, respect etc and they will fit into any community. Keeping them down and in poverty will breed resentment against those communities that they want to be part of. If they can do the same jobs as the rest of us then let them be rewarded the same as us and not just seen as cheap labour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible to change from being a racist to a non-racist in a few minutes? Wonder what brought that on? Is it because we have got your number?

Ive never been a racist, I just don't like the idea of foreigners being brought in to be used as cheap labour. If they can do the job pay them the going rate, the same rate as any other person. Why dont the locals take on the low paid jobs if the rate of pay offered is good enough for some it should be good enough for all. Its about time our Governemnts did something about some of our own lazy locals, make them take on some of the low paid jobs instead of paying out in benifits.
