They didn't want to get out of the car, because they saw no other whites around. I don't live around hillbillies. I see what you are trying to say, but let's stay on track. They are total hypocrites. They wanted diversity, and they got it! And they didn't like it.

So what? Plenty of liberals live in urban areas with non-white majorities and are perfectly fine. Just as some of those who are liberal aren't white themselves. Just because you know some hypocrites(if your story is true), doesn't mean an thing to me.

All the ones (liberals) I know are hypocrites, and ummm, just because it is a story coming from a conservative, you liberals always say the "story" is not true. You people need help.
Was I talking about you, or was I talking about my family? What's with the whinney coments about someone to whom you don't even know?
You should not take offense, unless the story hits home with you.
I thought it was funny how they accused me of racisim, yet were too afraid to come in contact with non-whites. I was just proving my point. If you don't like it, too bad.

I think you miss the overall point in that the leftist silencing comes via their considerable hold over the MAJORITY of the media they do hold: MOST print dailies, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, most local affiliates, Hollywood, NPR, Pacifica Radio, etc etc etc. They dont control the ONE broadcast outlet called FOx, making it one major reason to try and kill it.

But...you knew that, right? You tried to give a skewed response and thought you wouldn't get called out on it.

Have you ever heard the term "melting pot"? Yes, that's us, and has always been, and it has nothing to do with left and right.
The opponents of multi-culturalism are often the thinly velied proponents of racism, white nationalisim, or white supremacy.

Can you say that that's the attitude of a majority of muslim immigrants to EU/US? No, you really can't:

Nice try at taking one person and using him to stereotype of entire group of people.

There are plenty of hard working law abiding American Muslim people in this country.

Also America has a history of rejecting immigrants and dsicriminating against them. Italians, Polish people, Greeks, Irish, and other immigrant groups initially faced wholesale housing, and job discrimination when they came to this country.

Or how about they are just for integration and the melting pot theory where we blend in and take on the cultural aspects of the country we live in rather than the country we came from.

I think melting pot leads to a more united people than the salad bowl which creates many segregated groups.

You know I read almost the same thing at a white supremacist web site i visited recently.

You mean conservatives believe in collectivism as opposed to individualism?

This is just yet another example of why even as a centrist - I detest the far more insidious hypocrisy of the Left.
Mass immigration has to do more with an inverted demographic pyramid. Perhaps if you actually read books and newspapers then you'd realize this.
