You need to read up on prejudice it is not really a bad thing, it is natural so long as it does not control your life. But yes that is what you are most of us are. Does not make you a racist. Being from Poland means nothing, I am from Germany, I do not hate Jews or those considered "inferior" due to their race, that is just an excuse.

He didn't specify "legal" or "illegal" immigration. He said that he's against mass immigration and any of us can interpret what "mass" means.

For some people, all immigration is too much immigration. Besides, he's an immigrant himself...he shouldn't chirp too loudly. Maybe we shouldn't have let HIM in given his silly ass views.

After all, he claims that he wants to live in a monoculture in a nation that's united. Well why in the hell did he immigrate here....a nation that's NEVER been united in its history.

They are Polish-born with UK citizenship and they're trying to tell you USA-born Americans what the US is supposed to be... Ludicrous, right?

And the US has never in it's history been a mono-culture, not from day one, not in the 1950s and not now...

whats racist about that ?
I always thought a racist was one that wanted bad things for others because of their race. I want success for everyone so I don't meet the racist definition here.

I looked up the definition which included my definition but the first thing mentioned was belief that a race is superior to another. So I believe blacks are superior at running and playing basketball so apparently I'm a racist as well. But using that definition, the only non-racist people are those who are incapable of thought and reason. So therefore, I'm glad to be a racist.

Well genetics would prove you wrong. Many of us are of mixed race so one could have any skin color. Race isn't just about skin color. I have no problem with the different races living in harmony with one another but problems arise because of the different beliefs, religions, cultures and languages that clash with one another.

You bet. The successful English colonies were built atop either a vacant landscape, or by pushing the locals aside via illness or the ability to support a higher population density (higher quality farming vs. slash/burn or hunter-gatherers).

Demographics is destiny.

I disagree. We have been a melting pot of cultures. "Out of many...one". We do have an identifying culture and language and it has nothing to do with race or skin color.

It has gone beyond that now. I recall one of the local C-D Young Turks prattling on about it is more than the above.
