    Remember folks.
    Racism isn’t caused by or the fault of racists. It’s caused by other races just being where they don’t belong and walking around not a bother on them.

    If theyre so skilled then them getting social housing is a moot point as they won’t need it

    Anyone?

    What are you on about.
    It was said that they are in detention centres.

    I'm saying they are not. They are not locked up.

    You love resorting to labels when faced with facts. It's all you have

    He'd probably be in a gulag if they ever get their way, they're quite fond of those, along with a lot of the rest of us evil right-wingers (according to them). The WSM are communists, not anarchists.

    Way to miss the rather frightening and obvious racist point.

    He was advocating the burning of hostels for immigrants

    And he later advocated violent assault on the woman who threw curry and coke at him. But thats absolutely fine cause he isnt a far right neo nazi fascist at all.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    He didn't advocate burning down a building with people in it though.

    That woman did something very foolish imo

    True. But remember folks, not everything that idiots say is racism, is actually racism. It's a catch-all description to let them show how virtuous they are.

    Indeed.

    Victim blaming I think you'd call that in most other circumstances Joey. But I'm sure you won't in this one and call the victim the aggressor.

    Well played.

    No they aren't. There is a direct provision centre in my county. Drive though it and you'll see them out walking around the town. Not a bother on them

    This was in direct response to a protracted sequence of one liners in which the Australian system was being discussed. but chuck a u-turn or whatever.

    +1 , many on the left often defend violent or destructive action against banks or other bodies they find opressive , garda cars etc... , can certainly see why with a government determined to infect rural ireland with these centres that burning out an empty building may seem like all you have left

    Practically every sector has labour shortages at the moment, many sectors have skills shortages.

    Approx 44% of non-EU workers who come to the state are on Critical Skills Employment Permits meaning that we need them far more than they need us. These roles are reserved for nurses, (some) Doctors, IT professionals, certain engineers etc... they are critical to the functioning of the State and society.

    I had an old boss who was taking some guy to court, when my workmate asked him what legal firm he was using, he said, 'An expensive one, a real dirty b**tard!'

    True. However if she loses she'd still get hit with the other sides costs, wouldn't she?
