I agree with LEGO to a point:

«To have a democracy you need a population which is smart enough to have a general agreement on what constitutes correct behaviour.»

So far so good, however:

«With the importation of third world immigrants in ever increasing numbers, who's values, beliefs and cultural values are often diametrically opposed to that of the host white European population , that is becoming increasingly impossible.»

Beliefs and values can be diametrically opposed between any two people regardless of race or origins. This forum itself is evidence that great differences in beliefs and values exist even within the white European Australian population. German Jews were anything but a monolithic group: some were communists, other capitalists, some were Zionists, some such German nationalists they even supported Nazism ("Raus mit uns"), some were very orthodox, others conservative and reform Jews, some converted to Christianity, others were completely atheist, etc. The Nazis didn't care about any of that, they killed them all.

Indeed, nobody should be forcibly subjected to "belong" to a nation, democratic or otherwise, whose values regarding "right" and "wrong" contradict their own, but national divisions must only be based on fundamental values and never be made along lines of race, culture or arbitrary geographical lines.

Thank you for some sanity, Yuyutsu :)

Well said Yuyutsu, its the racists who identifies a group according to some basic distinguishing trait applicable to the entire group, their religion, Muslims, the colour of their skin, Blacks, or their ethnicity, Jews. The racists is quick to negatively stereotype the entire group, or stigmatise all based on the actions or perceived actions of one, or a small minority within the group.

A slight misquote by you - but the same meaning:

The Rev. Jesse Jackson was reported to have actually said:

"There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery. Then (I) look around and see someone white and feel relieved."

Goes to show, as we get on in life, even proud black men fear being mugged.
