Im quite mad about comments like that, it makes very difficult to criticize anyone if they are part of group that is not white.

Users that call others rasists should be banned imo.

mdchesne thinks that racism is all in how people take it. mdchesne is white, but he doesn't care if someone calls him a cracker. mdchesne agrees with you however, and thinks the thread should be locked.

Actually you are judging the Muslims in France based on the actions of muslims in Denmark = racist. Not to mention your post was begging for a reply since it was not backed up by a source and yet you claim that it was a "fact."

It's a fact what i said, and i didn't have numbers for france, and i used other country as an example.

How the hell giving example is racism ??

ps. it wasn't about the missing source.

pps. EU has excellent crime stats somewhere, go find em if you are intrested.

if you go into a touchy subjet thread and post something like that... with no source, or links to back up your claims, you are bound to get flamed.

IT WAS ABOUT RACISM, NOT ABOUT MISSING SOURCE !

Get that source yourself, use google.. :)

ps. you asked for some proof, but now you are just going to blame me for racism ?... :/

Dude. You are posting in P&N. Be prepared to back up your claims or be prepared to get flamed.
It's a debate, not a hit and run.

Yes but it wasn't about exact numbers, it was about having a problem and ignoring it.. i meant it to be sarcastic.

There wasn't any racism in my post.

yes, it IS about numbers and sources and backing up claims. P&N is not that the type of place that one can go in and just throw down a blanket statement and not back it up with hard printed proof from reliable sources. You are finding out what happens when you dont have the sources, exact numbers and links when making an inflammatory statement in P&N.

I am not trying to be mean to you... honest, I am not. But that is how it works in P&N. If you want to survive, you need to learn how things work and become really thick skinned.

:)

edit: and if you are gonna post links, try to make them ones that do not need a subscription. :) :) :)

I guessed it was a P&N thread, before I ever clicked on your link. People need to realize, if you go to P&N, you need real thick skin, period. If you can't take flack, then my best advise to you, would be to stay completely clear of that place. It has everything intelligence, education, attitude, people who are up on the issues, and personal emotion has to offer. Do not expect everyone to agree with your views. ;)

And BTW, there is mounting evidence that alot (not all) Muslims are not quite wired right, except when wired to a detonator. :Q

Racist is a term that may be used by others when they do not like statistics that point out something (true or not).

It can be used as an excuse for behaivor that is not considered appropriate by some and/or justified by others.

Many times, it can and usually is a one-way street.

In that case do not enter by using common sense.
