'Racist' is just a word - meaningless now because of its over use and abuse by the barely-literate. All people, regardless of race, prefer to be with their own people. That's what makes multiculturalism so damn stupid and dangerous.

In a liberal democracy, the voters have the final say! Not a reformist elected official who didn't bother to flag his policy agenda nor consult before announcing an intention to change a constitution that has stood for decades. And happily keeps foreigners from acquiring the country's real estate! Why not all that long ago our Kiwi cousins introduced a popular if apparently repealed law. That to acquire land in New Zealand, the purchaser had to qualify as a third generation Kiwi. Pity we didn't have the balls to emulate that legislation, with respect to now unaffordable housing and for political candidates! Alan B.

Alan B,

“Pity we didn't have the balls to emulate that legislation, with respect to now unaffordable housing and for political candidates!”

Now that IS the sort of straight talk we need to hear. I certainly appreciate it.

Wasn't it Abraham Lincoln's original intention to deport ALL the freed African-born slaves to Liberia but not their descendants, who may have had problems adjusting?

Also, the occupying Americans displaced the local community and caused significant unrest, much like the history and the legacy of the occupation of other African countries by white Europeans.

None are more racist than those incessantly bleating to be victims of racism.
