I largely agree with your observation Larry, even though you deleted it. (I have ways). Personally, it boils down to the Euro (and perhaps pan Western) concept of 'multiculturalism' - actually a Trojan Horse and straw title for an economic strategy which has clearly & comprehensively failed although the seeds thus far sown will result in a bitter crop indeed for our future generations. If you previously objected of course, you were deemed 'racist' or somesuch by virtue of laws that had been conveniently and in some cases, stealthily passed onto the statute books while you were busy putting your snout in the trough along with everyone else. We must remember to blame ourselves in equal shares.
As for us, there's little we can do now except appeal directly to our elected and electable representatives. We seem to spend far more time uselessly banging on via anonymous and irrelevant forums than we do expressing ourselves to those that can actually make a difference.
It's about time the people made their voices heard.
That said, I reiterate that the Paddock is not the place for it.
I agree it would be nice Bob but only in theory. Experience has proven that things will go downhill rapidly. If people want to rant that's fine - there are a million suitable blogs, but not here.
Remember that we are separated by a common language...
My take on events is that it's going to get ugly, soon, and when it does, I'd like to think we can stand shoulder to shoulder with friends we have made across oceans - not be reluctant to open the forum in case of something that has been said in haste and without empathy...
...(I have ways).
Haha that's funny Larry. Nothing complex nothing underhand and no moderator has access to PM's.
I'm not sure it is entirely accurate to say "immigrant" is the route cause of this, when in fact young males around the world engage in this type of behavior frequently.
That's all I'm going to say on the subject.
