#1 Anti-Muslim sentiment flared on Sydney's southern Cronulla Beach in December 2005 when mobs of whites attacked Lebanese Australians there in a bid to "reclaim the beach."

Am I to assume that the "youths" who threatened the Australian girls with rape were the tolerant ones?

#3 Asked how they would feel if a close relative was to marry a Muslim, 54 percent of people in New South Wales would be concerned, he said.

There's a lotta dumb people in NSW. Thank goodness they're in the minority.

#4 When my nieces in Sydney started dating I made them both promise me they would never go out with Muslim boys. They just smiled and said, " Don't worry about it. We know."

#5 Hmmmmmmmm...that would mean nine out of ten aren't.
Have they ever done one of these surveys in Saudi Arabia or Pakistan?

And that is how to do with race because? You can be color blind but ides determine behavior. Too many French girls found to their sorrow that the attractive Mulim man they had married treated them like sh.t, and once they got divorced, kidnapped their children and brought them to Algeria or Morocco because in his Muslim supremacist views, his children had to become Muslims even if at gunpoint.

And BTW, I don't see why you have to be ideas blind in matter of religion and not in matter of, say politics. Tell them one of those nice liberals if tehy would be so tolerant if their daughter were to marry a KKK man (that is one of is not a Democratic senator)? I for one, would be.

#7 The thing is some cultures are inferior to others and sometimes race can be closely tied with culture (especially in the super-PC era) so its easy to see how someone could mix the two concepts*.

It's even easier to see when the media only gives half the story and intelligent folks know they aren't getting it all but might not be able to accurate figure out what is missing from the picture.

* the example for this (beyond immigrants to the US who often succeed no matter what failures their home county was) is the Koreans. Same ethnic group in North and south but the North has developed a totalitarian Communist culture that has made them poorer than the lowliest dogs. It would be unfair to make up decisions on South Koreans based on there example.

#8 I have to wonder what percentage of the racial supremacists were Muslims, Asians and/or recent immigrants.

#9 with more than 80 percent viewing cultural diversity as beneficial.

But about 10 percent of the population was racial supremacists.


One of those two groups need to be re-educated, to get back in touch with Reality™ and basic common sense, as experienced in any human population group, regardless of time and location up to a very recent time (and thus even only in the West), and which is even most probably engrained in our genes.

But, which one? Oh, the agony of uncertainty.
