Are my views racist?

To imply that all African migrants are "yet more ill educated, unqualified economic migrants" is a little bit racist, but I'm not sure from your precis that that is what you implied.

He doesn't imply that ALL African migrants are as described. The OP says that this country doesn't need the ill educated, unqualified ones (clearly these are a sub-set of all Africans)

I wouldn't worry though.

Ok I will grant that to imply that all African migrants are "yet more ill educated, unqualified economic migrants" is a little bit racist.

However to suggest that most are may or may not be true. In this context (pushing back illegal immigration re Libya etc.) I would suggest it is most probably true as the educated, qualified migrants would probably come in legitimately.

Why is that bit racist? I can't see any mention of race there at all?

Yes, well, I meant in the context of the rest of the post, about the "chain of illegal immigration" from Africa. And I don't think it's Racist to point out that the chain of illegal immigration doesn't usually include White Africans amongst its fee-paying customers. I dunno, maybe the original poster is completely unbiased and believes that all economic migrants are ill educated and unqualified regardless of their racial origins, religion or sexual persuasion.

I am specifically - and in General - happy for white South Africans to be refused entry, and those already here thrown out. As for the other shades, I don't care either way. (Unless it's Ladysmith Black Mambazo in which case I want free tickets.) Does that count?

What about white Zimbabweans?

Really? I thought they were, given that unemplyment is at unprecedented levels and the currency is worthless. What's the difference between them and saffer's?

[TimberWolf]

It's lunacy letting educated migrants in. We've got too many educated people here already.

Saffers aren't having their farms "reclaimed" and their only way of making a living taken away from them (are they)?

Or being beaten up because Mugabe is a racist idiot?

[dang65]

you'll have to explain the demonstration of ignorance to me please so I can respond

Really?

Smells like a troll to me.

(Not that I have anything against the Troll race in general.)
