No, I have not been reading up on human genetics. I am wondering whether anyone might have some sound genetic basis to back up the notion of white supremacy over blacks.

if they hold an Irish passport of course they're entitled to call themselves Irish. But saying someones Irish instead of He's Nigerian implies that there's something wrong with the other guys nationality and I find that just as racist.

My point relates to Irish people calling their mixed raced or different race friend 'Irish' and failing to recognize the other persons nationality/race, as if being Irish is superior to the persons other race/nationality.

If someone had an Irish passport, was raised in Ireland and spoke with an Irish accent, I would automatically refer to them as Irish unless they asked to be called something else. I think taking it upon yourself to call someone Nigerian-Irish or Chinese-Irish is far more offensive as it implies that they are only half Irish. What if someone has Nigerian and Chinese parents but were born and raised in Ireland? Do we call them Nigerian-Chinese-Irish or would it be racist to put the Nigerian part ahead of the Chinese part?

I really hope Ireland doesn't go down the American route of Irish-this and Irish-that, as it only causes long term social divides. There seems to be an undercurrent where people don't want to be American but want to be something-American. Even after a few generations they still won't refer to themselves as American. It's like American is seen as white and being white is uncool. I find the whole thing very bizarre.

Here is a clip of Jessica Alba getting the hump because she is told she is 87% white.

Imagine if someone was that disappointed to be told they were mostly black? It would be an outrage!

I am not sure about the above advise to go look at those metro findings but even if they are true, then i still don't buy white supremacy although i don't see how the original intentions of these ideas we have been sharing correlates to white supremacy , maybe you've got a better eye for it than i have, I'm not sure any facts would make me buy supreme supremacy of one race over the other. Should these facts persuade others of galactic supreme supremacy of one race over another shouldn't we disallow such gathering of information & how do we really end racism & get along.

They don't, because there isn't such a basis, despite years of trying by some hard-core racists. Don't be fooled by any crank studies that anyone links to. They're all complete and total bollocks.

Heres a question, why is there more, per capita, whites locked up in Irish jails compared to blacks?
I suppose that means that white Irish are more genetically likely to commit crimes than black africans under your theory?

First off it wasn't his theory.Sopretty conjured that beauty on genetics & to answer that question we need to determine if supremacy can get a foot hold on the final outcome of such a study & guess what they would do with that information.What do you think supremacists would do with that information if it was in their favor? Nasty things very nasty things what do you think.

You're comparing Ireland (which has a relatively small number of ethnic minorities) to London? Really? That comparison is laughable. I'm also not sure what theory you think I'm backing. There are a lot of native English in London who are in poverty too. Not as many as the black community proportionately, but the overall population indicates that black people are probably more likely to commit a crime than another person on the poverty line, native or otherwise. Also, I never said anything about genetics. Do you bother to read the posts? Finally, there are so few black people in Ireland that I doubt any statistics would be significant.

People don't want to hear it because it messes with their ideology. It's also a dangerous topic because certain right wingers and the far right have an agenda and want to stir up trouble. That leaves a delicate and in some cases taboo issue but I don't feel the need to brush it under the carpet. It's a casual discussion anyway, so there is no need for people in these threads to get so animated. Should we only discuss certain issues behind closed doors with a few friends over beers? Is that an unwritten rule?

This data is for the USA. Look at some of the percentages here. Black people make up 12% of the population in America. Yet account for 50% of arrests for murder/manslaughter and 54% of arrests for robbery. I don't know what the reasons for this are i'll leave others to comment on that. But they are the facts. There is a problem somewhere.

40% of African Americans live in poverty compared to 10% of caucasion Americans.

The stats add up perfectly, especially when you consider the systemic racism in setencing and drug laws for whites and blacks.

And guess what... African Americans account for EXACTLY 40% of the prison population.

Poverty is part of the reason but it's not the sole reason. Saying that it is the sole reason is very patronising to the decent people who live in poverty and earn an honest living and don't commit crimes.

Also, if that statistic is true, it implies that statistically, very few black Americans can rise above that. That, to me, is more damaging than some of the other commentary.

Well yes you are correct but which ones? After all what effects some effects all & if we have people tarnishing us how will we look. Ireland will be ruined. Instead try and help by understanding how to effect change without destruction of reputation. Your remark is polar opposite to what i mean, just saying.

I'm just surprised that posters were even allowed to say that black people are more genetically predispositioned to crime than whites. I mean I'm all for discussion and free speech but its scientifically untrue and just pure racism. It can't even be said to be an opinion or anything. Its akin to people in the 1700s thinking that the size of a person's skull determined their disposition to crime. Absolute racism and completely debunked a long time ago.

Bit of a light hearted one, a few years ago I was in a shop with my little brother when walking down the fruit aisle he pointed to some banannas and said "Monkeys" loud enough that the black gentleman standing beside the bananas turned and assumed that the comment was directed at him. Theankfully he didn't over react or go crazy and let me explain that the little guy wasn't calling him a monkey but it was simply his word for bananas.

Others explained it to you but you don't seem to be capable/willing to grasp it. There are unemployment black spots in Ireland that still have the same problems with crime that they had 30 years ago. It's the exact same type of thinking. Skin colour isn't a factor, pretty obvious stuff to me.
