[QUOTE=King Tiger;39659470]Loving the veiled racism here.[/QUOTE] No, get out. There's racism, and then there are real complaints based on past experience. Which is actually what I've seen most of in this thread. Racism is when you find races inferior often based on nothing. No one has claimed everyone of a race act the same or are less worthy. And if anyone had, that wouldn't be "veiled racism" it'd be racism. You are the kind of guy who calls racism on such petty things it's racist to call it out.

I don't call out racism on anything besides this European fear of brown people that seems to be becoming increasingly prevalent. This is just Europeans being afraid of brown people ruining their perfect white world.
[QUOTE=pkhzor;39659301]I apologize for that but.. [URL]http://vladtepesblog.com/?p=48802[/URL] [video=youtube;KA1VB2ZMyDY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA1VB2ZMyDY[/video] [video=youtube;Xy-lXixUiJM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Xy-lXixUiJM[/video] [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theo_van_Gogh_%28film_director%29[/url] I could keep posting these all day but this should get the message across to those who aren't familiar with the issue.[/QUOTE] Blatant generalization of immigrants. Because every Swedish Muslim is a rioting, raping, car-torching troglodyte bent on destroying "Swedish culture", right? As for the video, Fox News' hate for brown people is well-documented, nothing surprising about them making a story painting immigrants as a problem.
It appears I might have misunderstood the sentiment of a post. Rendering this post fucking dumb. [t]http://www.thepinkdirectory.com.au/pinkdollars/scissor_icon.gif[/t]-Snip-
[QUOTE=huyu;39660795]No.. many become that in part due to awful integration. Which has been said in the thread. (Again this is no excuse and those doing this should be rounded up and banished.) Some become assimilated and adapt to our society. Nobody ever said EVERY muslim is a criminal etc. You are making things up. [editline]...[/editline] Oh and the video is no propaganda. Go to Rosengård or some other parts of Malmö and see for yourself.[/QUOTE] Providing an extremely one-sided view of Swedish immigration is just another form of generalization. I know what Rosengård is and I know how much of a problem it is, but the story clip (and by extent every person who attempts to use it as an anti-immigration statement) is dumb and not representative of immigrants as a whole.

But since most Americans call racism in these threads immediately I'd say they know the "other side". I thought he was just trying to show the side that most Americans don't see. But you are completely right that the post could be interpreted as generalization. The video shows what happens due to the failure that is our current immigration system. That is all I think. I didn't assume he was using the video to describe "all immigrants", if that is what he was doing it was indeed quite appalling.

We're constantly made aware of the situations where integration has failed and where immigrants are the cause of X and Y, but we rarely see the cases where integration is successful (and why would we, since we stop recognizing them as immigrants once they're properly integrated?).
