I am fed up with the political correctness that has crept into my country and probably yours.
It is a fact that black men form gangs,deal drugs and carry firearms
But we must not say it.
It is a fact that Muslims do not integrate and want sharia law but we must keep quiet about it.
This is not a r****ts rant.For every black gang member there hundreds of thousands decent,law abiding black men and hundreds of thousands decent Muslims working in society. Indeed,our health service would not survive without them.
But why must we not mention the others for fear of offending them?
Thousands of Romanians are now my country.some are pick
pockets and thieves most just want a job and a better life but we must not mention the former even though they are in a minority.
I see the point in not wanting to offend the good guys but they must realise these things go on.

Yeah, those black gangs with their guns and drugs and murder cause all the problems. If we could just be rid of all the black gangs, life would get so much better. How do we rid ourselves of black gangs like Aryan Brotherhood, the Vikings, Dixie Mafia, the Bandidos, Hells Angels, Asian Boyz, Hammerskins, 211 Krew, Gambino Family, and so on.

Damned b****s!

I think the 97.9% of the population that is non-Latvian causes at least half of the trouble in the world.

It has been pretty common throughout history for poor disenfranchised young men to form gangs for their collective defense and benefit - often involving criminal activity. The Irish and Puerto Ricans formed gangs in the past. We have areas with Dominican gangs, Mexican gangs, Chinese gangs, black gangs, and white gangs.

The United States does a much better job supporting Muslim immigrants and helping them assimilate than does most of Europe - where they feel isolated and ARE isolated and tend, as all people do, to want to fall back on what they know. This is not a new phenomenon.

There are ways of combatting this without threats of mass arrests and deportations (although a "carrot and stick" approach might not be a bad idea). Education and jobs are very important tools.

I do not particularly like Rudy Giuliani, but I had to applaud him when he was being criticized by fellow Republicans back in the 2008 primaries for allowing undocumented kids in NYC to attend public schools. He replied: "We estimated that we had 30,000 undocumented kids in NYC at that time. We knew that our options were to either let them hang around on the street corners with nothing to do, or we could encourage them to go to school and potentially become productive members of society". It was only common sense. Public school is a great common denominator. All parents who set out to make a new life for themselves, whether as undocumented workers or as refugees, want a better life for their kids, and welcome the opportunity for their kids to go to school. This is where WE need to put our best interest alongside those of our new neighbors. Mixing with non-immigrant kids, learning the language, and learning the culture will help these folks assimilate.

Between Dirtpusher and a handful of other people, I wonder why people post things like this. I come here for photography items, photos, news, etc. Not this type of tripe. Instead of griping about things like this, realize that we all know stuff like this goes on. There are ALWAYS the 10% of any people that screw things up for the rest of us. Go out and make a difference and do something good for others. Just my 2 cents worth. Cheers.

Political correctness is anything but. I thought your post did a good job of conveying your true feeling which apparently are not understood by the stupid overbloat and Green feces below. One big problem among many groups and as I have observed several times in London, is a lack of sanction among Muslims against their own terrorists. To me failure to condemn is tantamount to approval.

But, but, but, you did just say (write) it, didn't you? It is (also) a fact that WHITE men form gangs, deal drugs and carry firearms. How are you safer if you are allowed to mention the black gangsters but choose to ignore the white ones? And how are you contributing to the overall community if the only black folks you talk (write) about are the gangsters? Acknowledging that, by the way, most black people aren't gangsters just doesn't hack it.

Ibid. Well, here in America, you would have to swim all the way up the river to find any un-integrated Muslims but we have a lot of politically correct Muslim hatred. Sharia law is specifically banned in at least one state - Oklahoma, which doesn't even have very many Muslims.

Political correctitude is in the eye of the beholder and nobody can force any of us to accept it.

By the way, if you are (were) a "ViscountDriver," why is your avatar what looks to me like a Lancaster? Mine is my shadow in my P2V, I loved that airplane.

"There are liars, damned liars.... and then there are statisticians."

Some would do well to brush up on their NCR.

There were over 800 black males k**led in Chicago last year. I might add...more than have been k**led by "white Ayrians" in the nation over the last 50 years..."

There are real problems and then there are perceived problems.

My kids were scared of ghost. They would lean over a cliff that had a 1000 foot drop.
I had to teach them there was no such things as ghost and don't be dancing on the edge of a 1000 foot drop off.
Gravity is a Bitc_.

I hear about those things you mention each and every day, even though I don't want to.

Here on the Hog there are any number of r****t rants evey day, all the time, seemingly forever.

"Thousands of Romanians are now my country." Am I to assume you mean gypsies? I haven't heard people attack gypsies for decades and decades. Are you serious?

Perhaps you denigrate these people as a race, which is r****m, instead of denigrating the individuals and the bad deeds they preform.

There are many crazy, dishonest, thieving, lying and violent and corrupt white people, you must admit. Are you OK with lumping these people together as 'white people' and including you in the group, too?

So "black men" includes good men as well as bad. Why not refer to criminals, or drug dealers or violent men, which includes black, white and so forth, and more accurately denotes what you are protesting?

Deep down, you might just possibly be guilty of the r****m you deny.
