Ethnic Minorities - What do you think

[GommeInc]

I actually disagree, when I read the new(papers) every morning, I see more white people being reported.

Out of the 10 most read stories on BBC right now, there are 3 regarding crime and all 3 seem to be reporting white people.

Me too interestingly. Infact, all the major crimes lately have been reported as a white caucasian person.

sorry, just noticed your other post. i'll withdraw my post haha .





and yeah, nothing against ethnic minorities, as long as they abide by law and obviously get here lawfully.

While benefits are a big problem, crime is more so. We have allowed unlimited numbers of people into this country - you only have to look at the news to see that a lot of the time, when a crime is reported on - it is a ethnic minority who are the offenders. That isn't racist, its just what is wrong with the whole system.

On the British Empire, the left will always try and convince you we were the evil colonisers, but if you look into it, it did so much good and virtually sacraficed itself to defend the free world against the Third Reich.

@the bold bit - yes that might be true, but there are studies which have been done into this which suggest that this is because the police force actually stop more black/asian people than they do caucasians. So bearing that in mind, of course the crime rate for ethnic minorities is going to be higher because they are being stopped more than white people. That is a prejudice within the police force. You could argue that the police often find something to charge these people with too, and this is especially true with young ethnic minorities and young people in general.

I'm sorry but I do not accept that, maybe they do, but if they do theres a simple reason; they are more likely to be offenders as shown by the population of prison compared to the outside.

Obviously there are more of them in prison because more keep getting stopped, it's a never ending circle.. this is one of the things they teach on the A-Level Law course, all about the prejudices which currently exist within the police and i'm sorry but just because you don't accept it doesn't mean its untrue.

Where I live the population seems to be 50% ethnic minorities and 50% whites so I guess when they stop somebody it's just a 50/50 chance (here anyway). Plus, the Leicestershire Police Force has many non-white officers.

If you think my 50% statistics are bullpoo, they're not...


- Ethnicity
(United Kingdom Census 2006 Estimate)[1] 62.0% White
29.4% S.Asian
4.6% Black
2.6% Mixed
1.5% Chinese and other

For Leicester... that's 06. I imagine it has increased...

No, in Britain, and especially this country, it takes a lot to get anywhere near a cell door. They are doing something wrong, its not some predjudice as you and the left always claim. This is why people turn totally against the whole idea of multi-culturalism, because its never their fault, its always either our fault or the police's fault, or somebody elses fault.

Do you actually have any statistics from reliable sources to show that the prison consists of majority Ethnic Minority? Until you do, you point is flawed.

It is widely accepted, just look at US prisons aswell. This PC government would never publish something that would backup what i'm claiming, and even if it did; would I believe a word they said? - no.

In all honesty i don't mind any race or ethnic minority. In fact i do talk to lots of different races and really, they are all the same.

However there is one thing that bugs me. Asian/Pakistani/Indian etc. They don't seem to mingle like other races, they all live in the same areas, the build mosques where our churches used to be and the constantly speak in their own langauge. Theres also problesm with some who just don't seem to like whites. Don't get me wrong, alot of them are alright when you talk to them. But i can deffinately see where the judgements come from.
