Seems to have fallen for it hook, line and sinker 😂 You mean to say the bit were sweep admits to being a racist was a wind up? And what next? Please don’t tell me you were winding me up when you too, a school teacher, readily admitted to an open public forum to being a racist? You guys… Edited September 6, 20232 yr by Johnny1990

It passes a bit of time reading through it when I need a break from work. Don’t think there is an actual point as such I think my main point was I’m saddened to see real northern working mans towns like Bolton losing their identity bit by bit each year due to mass immigration. Areas that were once full of people like you and me are long gone. The same way as if I was to visit Italy, and let’s say I want to visit a piece of real Italy and I head for one of the towns, when I got there I find that the areas surrounding the town were now full of African migrants. Would anyone on here not feel saddened to see that?

Theres a lot of areas go the same way but due to other minorities and demographics of people.

It’s all burger joints, fatty bum bums and big trucks. Same in places like Peru, Mexico and Brazil. You just don’t see Aztecs, Mayans, Incas etc, it’s just all Iberians who’ve barely been there for 5 minutes eating all the Guinea Pigs and chopping the trees down. Sad to see really.

Unfortunately I’m not as articulate as the posters on here but I’m sure they understood my point but chose not to. You said that we’ve “fucked up” letting Muslims in. Pretty clear what you meant. Stop playing the victim who’s having his words twisted 😂 We have fucked up. They’re outbreeding the white population in Bolton and moving out of their slums in to what was once white areas and the local whites are then moving further away to avoid them. We can co exist with them on a working level but outside of work you very rarely see whites and Muslims socialising. And that’s because we don’t share many of the same values. Hands up on here who can say one of their closest friends is Muslim? I doubt not many if any.

Let’s say you are travelling through Ireland. Real authentic Ireland. You say let’s stop off and visit a local pub and drink a real Irish Guinness. But when you get there the pub is now a local mosque and the inhabitants are mainly Asian Muslims. And the main streets are now littered with pizza shops and phone shops. What are your first thoughts?

You're saying it’s ok for palefaces to conquer the globe and do this, but not the other way round? Because, goodness me, you need to start learning to fight. The world is changing and the brown folk we dominated for 200 years are turning the tables.
September 6, 20232 yr So tell me if you feel this angry about how America has treated the former natives why do you go there? Is it to protest? Or do you go to visit all that America had to offer?

September 6, 20232 yr He’s probably chosen not to as there are Native American settlements. He instead chose to visit the westernised America he so loathes.

September 6, 20232 yr Is this Miami and his he's half Comanche thing 😂. I mean, I knew a lot of roofers were cowboys, but Indians?
