Uh.... you're English, right?

In the States, I've heard white people say they believe discrimination
against black people is exaggerated by the media, or by social activists,
or by politicians, or by Professional Victims. The truth is that no white
person can really know how much and what kind of discrimination black
people encounter.

Remember the movie "Watermelon Man"? Maybe you could sponsor a Limerick
Man project, in which a Limey goes undercover to see what it's like for
someone who comes from the other side of the Irish Sea.

I lived in London for many years and am still a regular visitor. It is
simply too multicultural and multi-ethnic a city to make any sort of racism
or discrimination seem commonplace.

If you did experience any, it was more the exception than the rule.

Good God, there's only four and a half million of them in the whole of

Yes, and this stems from a time when "God" definitely was not good!


Given that the peak of imigration into the US was only about 140 years
ago, what have they been doing to get to 22 Million)

I think it's pretty obvious...

Michael, The US population in 1850 was around 22 million, it is now 280
million. This is a greater percentage then what you were proposing for
China. Look at the following graph http://www.npg.org/historypop.html


Actually, our governmetn undercounts at least 15 million-20 million
illegal immigrants. The actual population in the U.S. currently
ia roughly 320 million, with about 25 million of that not on the
official government tally.

Bugger off and learn a bit of decency and etiquette.

And for those who imagine that cross-posting makes any kind of sense, this
idiot is perfect proof that it is not OK.

I don't know where you live, but here in London I believe there is no
discrimination. Certainly I have several Irish friends who have never
talked to me about any troubles. On the other hand, while travelling
in the Republic, I have encountered some anti-British racism. It was
very much a minority thing, though, and it came from the kind of
moronic neanderthal who would be a racist wherever he lived.

As for the "No travellers" thing - that is rather different. There are
certainly considerable problems associated with traveller communities.
They tend to leave scenes of devastation in their wake when they leave
a district, and hugely inflated crime rates while they are present.
Whether they are Irish or not simply isn't an issue. On the other
hand, perhaps you are the one making the racial link with trouble...



Question:

What does 'no travellers' refer to?

Travellers often use bookshelf speakers, due to space restrictions in their
caravans.

And Michael, just to prove a point....
In June 1995, Australia's population was 18.1 million, almost twice the size
it was 40 years ago, and four times the size in 1910

Comparing countries with essentially open migration like the US and
Australia to a countries natural growth rate is absurd.

The fact remains your assertions are dodgy.
