Oh tulip. I knew we had banned excluded someone.

Why do you constantly suggest opposition to Europe or mass immigration is based on racism?

I didn't say that. I did not call anyone racist.


There are some on here who have a hatred for the European Union. Am I right or wrong?
There are some on here who are vocal in their desire to decide exactly who should be allowed in to the UK and who should not, and generally they voice this in terms of who should not. Is this true, or am I imagining it?


It is possible to oppose something without hating it. When someone opposes something, they should be able to discuss why they oppose it without resorting to petty name calling or childish responses, because that reflects more on their lack of understanding, or that they are opposing emotionally but not intellectually.

You did imply it unless you can explain this?

she's a foreigner and pro-Europe. She'd be hounded off by the hateful few.

Maybe you are a neo lefty without knowing it?

So the only people who call out racists are leftie/bleeding heart liberals?

I think you have a perception problem. People can not want to be in the European Union without hating it. In general, people don't have a problem with the players, but with the game. The incidents in Germany more highlights the incompatibility in cultures imho than anything else.

Yet you either contradict or go all preachy in your second paragraph. Which is it?

How does it do that?

no but the first recourse of leftie/bleeding heart liberals is to try to discredit the opposition by tarring them as racist.

I didn't judge WTFH on his politics or leanings just his post. If you think he is a rampant lefty then you need to discuss that with him. Personally I think he is normally pretty balanced.

I did tease him about being a neo lefty just as some joke about being racist.
