Other - Cultures & Groups - October 2006

I am trying very hard not to stereotype but I am very curious. I own a German Shepherd and have seen many people who are uncomfortable around him. (Understandibly--he is over 100 pounds, and has a very strong bark). I live in an area with a very large number of hispanic people and have noticed that more of them than usual seem to be afraid of our very friendly dog. Even big, tough guys seem to stop dead in their tracks when the see my dog approaching them. I was just wondering if it had something to do with their culture, or if it's all just a coincidence.

I really don't! Of course I don't live in the areas heavily populated by spanish speaking people. I just want to know why people are so angry about spanish being the next widely spoken language. Threatened by people who are acutally allowed to keep their culture alive? Mad because you can't oppress them like the blacks were?

Why is it that when people who are Christians and Hindus going to new countries, adapt according to the host Countries.

1.They never ask for special Churches or Temples
2.They never ask for special schools for their children
3.Why do they adapt to the dress and culture

Whereas when Muslims go to another country, even a Christian or a Hindu Country, they insist on having their own schools, Places of Worship, Mosques, they have their own radical dress code, including complete veils, head to toe for their wives. Even they want to be Mayors of Cities in India, Meerut is a prime example, the woman contesting are in Veils and so how will you know who the mayor actually is.
On board buses or trains if these women wear head to toe veils, how will the rest of the travelers react, are there bombers in disguise there.

Most of these Muslims depend on state benefits, depriving the actual citizens of the Country who have worked all their lives and paid taxes, their dues.

They are also fostering terror outfits within the host Country to destroy the Host Country and these people are killing the honest, innocent citizens.

People are afraid to travel in Trains, Planes and even their own cars for fear of Bombings.

What is the solution to the problem now, it seems to escalating into a major disaster.

What happened to that wonderful world that you could go anywhere without being scared or stopped and searched at every point.

I would personally say enough is enough, if you want all these rights and more, why don’t you immigrate to an Islamic state like Pakistan, who clams to be the guardian of the Islamic faith.

Islamic countries will not even allow religious symbols to be taken into their countries. Even a small pendant of a cross would be confiscated at the airport. Whereas UK and the US are even making schools for Muslims, is that fair or right on the ordinary citizen?

What exactly does it mean to you? Because people say it means "ignorant black person," though some people take it in another way. Also, why do YOU feel black people don't appreciate it when "certain" people make use of the word.

By the way, I'm black myself, and I feel like no one should use the word. But, I'd rather just black people use it than any other race.

It seems as though a lot of people say it to be cool. I hear mexicans/hispanics say it more than black people at school sometimes, and it irritates me. Not to offend them, it's just, stop saying it.

I mean is it true that the English people today are all from Germanic background and that they haven; really got a history before the Anglo-Saxons, like native brits before Roman times and Ancent Britons, i mean there must be some English people who might have Celtic native blood in them, or is it that Germanic people made England of what is it today with all their influence and so therefore England is omnly 500 600 years old and dont really have an indenity or rich in history like say Grecce, Egyptions (Pharos) or the persians etc.

i am salvadorian but in the place where i live people are white.
there are blacks as well as latinos. i seem to notice whites have it better than the non-whites. is this handed down from generation to generation to keep whites wealthier and better?
i think whites worry more about money than love or the news or anything that's negative.
This is not just in america, it is in El Salvador as well. the richest become richest and they dont care about homeless or anything

Now, I dont want any liberal bleeding heart ignorant bullshit. first and formost, i'm not southern, i'm not a redneck. In MY HOUSE, we are not racist (although some may think so, because of our pride of white heritage) BUT...I love my race, and would like for it to be here for generations to come, just as I hope for the other races! Black Power! Hispanic Power! Asian Power! and etc, BUT, seperately...I would like for my daughter to have pride in and further our race, but she is dating a mixed man (whom I do not dislike) but we really pride ourselves on the preservation of our race. I love my daughter and would NEVER force her to do anything against her will, and let me say again for those who are too ignorant to understand this topic, I AM NOT RACIST, but are there any ways to help my daughter appreciate her heritage more?
