The far right

Jesus Christ 

"That said I don't think 100 refugees are all rapists and murderers just because they are black or Muslim or men or all three."

Try your best to take to best interpretation of what is being communicated in these discussions and then we'll not be talking past each other.

Ok why should me and my wife be a little bit of tilt as you say if 100 refugees are put up in a building in my town?

The far right say they should be vetted. What's your issue with them. It must be something to do with them being men since you brought that up.

Before I answer (and I will) ... are you telling me that you personally can't think of any reasons why you might be uneasy in that scenario?

Well this might surprise you but there are 100 refugees in the small town I live in. 75 or so Ukrainians and 25 north Africans. And no I didn't bat an eyelid. I'm involved in soccer and gaa and I went into both facilities and asked them to come and sign up. Many did. There were no protests, no racists spouting shite and no one that I noticed put of tilt. Half of the people are male I expect so I'm curious what would happen that would be so different if they were all male.

The only issues have been the lack of support for the schools in terms of help with language issues but the people involved got on with it as best they could and resisted the urge to petrol bomb the 2 hotels.

No dogs no blacks no Irish. Standard signs at digs outside of Ireland.

I'm sorry, but this is complete and utter bullshit. Standard signs??!! You'd believe any old myth. These signs were very rare, if they ever existed at all. There's even some doubt over whether the only known photo of one of them was genuine or not.

Do yourself a favour and just google that line.

As I said, not 'standard' as you claimed.

So Itchy....

What %age are in families?
Whats the number of young adults not in families? 
Do you think these are irrelevant questions?

In other words normal decent people acting as normal decent people do.

Most people are normal and decent.

All irrelevant. I know people who went to Christian brother schools, 500 boys and no girls. I suppose very few blacks or Muslims but maybe you can tell me if that's what worries you, colour and religion. You said you were going to answer a few posts back yet all you are doing is me new questions. I'm keen to understand should we avoid men dominated locations, like football matches, or is there something else (an elephant in the room?)

I know. Most people want tighter curbs on immigration.

Yes they are thankfully. I look forward tomorrow to see the daughter of Nigerian emigrants represent her country, a proud Irish woman, and I really hope she wins to sicken every one the far right scum.

So Itchy

Is there a maximum number of newcomers that can be accommodated or should everyone who shows up be admitted?

[theskull1]

100 young men arriving into a facility in a small town would have a lot of protective mammies and daddies with daughters on tilt. They might have nothing to worry about but evolutionarily speaking they'd be wise to be on their guard and be concerned that all that testosterone in the one place within any community is bad idea.... but thats all it takes to be a racist these days

Put up a poll lad, word it any way you want. Then move on

No-let him answer the question (which is entirely reasonable and rational)

Very few people that I know are against migration. They're against unlimited unvetted migration

Is it just men or is it black men or Muslim men the mammies and daddies would concerned about?

And please, quoting evolution as a means to excuse this ignorance as if it can't be helped as it's in the dna. Give me a break.
