Ammonite - “Everyone, if you trace their family ancestry back far enough has mixed 'race' - whatever that means.”
If you go back far enough, everyone is descended from Noah and his family. So we are all one race, the human race. In this one sense, we are all ‘boat’ people. Posted by Dan S de Merengue, Tuesday, 28 June 2011 9:30:55 PM

This thread just gets funnier and funnier. Talk about the sublime and the ridiculous!

If you like to believe that we all descended from Noah and this means you believe skin colour is no big deal, then whatever 'floats your boat'. It is preferable to the racist bilge currently poisoning the freedom of speech normally present on OLO. For me evolution is the key - we are all out of Africa.

Dear Ammonite,
Evolution is the key, except some people haven't evolved very far at all. This is from the sublime to the ridiculous and no - it isn't funny! Posted by Lexi, Wednesday, 29 June 2011 10:52:14 AM

Evolution is the key to what? Darwin’s book - On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life, did not exactly inspire harmonious thoughts on how we could all get along.
I agree with you that skin colour is no big deal. It’s only skin deep. And while JayM is over the top with his nonsense about genocide, he is exercising his free speech. Saying only things that everyone agrees with is not free speech. A society that allows people to say things we find distasteful is the definition of free speech. I think Jay is taking offense to your slightly out of date ‘Melting Pot’ song. We don’t exactly need a world full of ‘coffee coloured’ people, despite the song having some agreeable sentiment. Perhaps he is looking for some balance to the resistance to the fact that Anglos truly have brought worthwhile and significant contributions to this land and others. Ammonite, I know you like YouTube videos. So check out some of this wisdom from Jemaine and Bret – http://youtu.be/zs_rXxi0zhM Posted by Dan S de Merengue, Wednesday, 29 June 2011 11:04:40 AM

It doesn't matter what you think, the convention on the prevention of Genocide is open ended for a reason.
The point I made in the last post, which you ignored was that once the accusation of Genocide is made the court will convict you, no matter what.
There is no way back from a Genocide charge, once you're in that dock you can kiss the rest of your life goodbye.
Human rights tribunals always convict, just look at the Canadian system.
I'm not pro this, or pro that, I'm just pointing out that reducing the numbers of my Race in Australia is Genocide.
What people such as yourself fail to appreciate is that the world is not static, the rest of us are leaving the age of egalitarianism and moving on to ethnocentrism.
The centre of gravity for Racialism and Nationalism has moved away from Europe and settled on Asia,the ties between Racialists of all Races grow stronger by the hour, in the long run your "minorities" might not be loyal to who you think they are.
Your "diverse" migrants are also perhaps not as diverse in outlook as you'd like to think, bear in mind that the balance in migrant intake is tipped heavily in the favour of Christians. Your average Third World Pentecostal Fundamentalist makes Fred Nile look like Julian Clary, we're talking witch hunts,exorcisms, mortification of the flesh and black magic
As we coast toward the start line for WW3, as the last Arab Socialist dictators are scooped up and dragged off to the Hague and the total subjugation of the Middle East begins, whose side are you on?
What's going to happen in the next couple of years will change everything, can people like you really afford to be so cocky?
Just think about it, when, in the next months and years you're asked to pick a side, which will you choose?
Pro White, or pro White genocide?
