I think Monkfish would feel a little more at home on *********** with his reactionary drivel.
Trying to cover over obvious racist tendancies with discredited myths and random xenophobic cliches.
If you want someone to point the finger at look at our ruling class, the politicians, bankers and developers.
They are those which are responsible and only when we resolve the obvious inadequacies and inherent problems of our ruling class can we ever sort out the financail quagmire we are in.
And dont put your hands up Monkfish, "what did I do", blah blah blah, its clear for all to see where your sympathys lie on this and the very fact that you have a thumbs up beside the "send them back" title only serves to compound the case.

Out of interest magicme you mentioned you heard horific cases from refugees around the world.
But from my knowledge there is no war or sizeable ethnic violence in Romania?
Just curious as to the storys that did come from refugees from Romania?

Da Real Rover, its not war that makes Roma move here more the systematic government led racism. I cant get into specific cases here but I do know women who were raped by police/soliders in their villages on a constant basis as the Roma are seen as sub-human. Also the schools were refusing them education until they were made to and then they just increased the costs of schooling so it excluded many families who wanted to educate their children.

I was told by some Roma that things were better for them under Ceausescu as at least they were treated equally. Says a lot really.

I know people who'd go to work with a cold. I know more that wouldn't though.

I know it's a little OT but this is one that has always really bugged me.

Now maybe it's just because I'm self-employed and (unrelatedly) have some form of a cold (almost always a nasty one) for about two months of the year in total but...How was this ever, in any walk of life, a passable excuse to stay off work sick?

I understand if your boss wants you to work from home so as not to infect anyone, that's cool, but seriously anything other than that has to be one of the softest most pathetic reasons not to work a day in your life known to humanity.

Ahh I see.
Cheers Magicme.

Jesus you must despise the swine flu curse more than most I'd say

EDIT Im just after noticeing the thread title '' Send them home'' with a thumbs up beside it, surely a banable offence

Why exactly?

I am able to voice my opinion regardless wether you agree or not surely?

Or has Nazi Germany risen from the ashes and banned free speech?

Can someone explain to me (via pm/email/in person) why a certain word has been censored please?

Was on it twice in my life, their hatred of Israel put me right off.

I'm closing this now, nothing of value is being added.
