Oh, you don't want to get started on that. A government telling people where they can and cannot live based on ethnicity...that's been done before. It's known as apartheid, and it's gonna be a tough sell, to say the least!

That's undermining the diversity dogma, and exposing minorities as uncivilized groups.
Please, residents of Portland, would you impose some kind of ban on moving more whites to your city, and create some programs for moving nonwhites in. I'm sure, if this has been brought to our lovely governement's attention, some funds from our taxes would be created to stimulate minorities moving to Portland. Please, let's stay politically correct!

That I think is what they call skin color. I grew up in Las Vegas and believe me I am still having trouble being comfortable living here. Been here 6 years-because of my children-and will stay because of them.

I notice you're from Indiana. How are things over where you live...and would you mind if people were told to move in or out depending on their skin color?

the systematic destruction and eradictation of european american culture is to a large extent attributed to the K12 machine-- probably one of the most clever social engineering machines ever invented.

European american culture? There are 47 countries in Europe and they all have unique cultures. Some countries in Europe may have more in common with countries in South America or Africa.

Hmmm...this must be a recent shift, I'm not sure that new european immigrants could necessarily identify with "native" white americans.
