This isn't a Swedish problem so much as a European problem. Europe has gone for so long without any form of immigration or racial and ethnic mixing. Now that you have people coming in from the Middle East, Africa, and South-East Asia (who are primarily Muslim), you have serious problems with integration. And I'm not worried. A similar thing has happened countless times in the United States, with "white flight" (white people leaving a major city or area after it became "too black."). And Slimebeast, what the hell man? You've shown this kind of racism and intolerance before, stop it. You're like the Europeans on Youtube that put up hate speech videos and blame all of Europe's problems on immigration.
Now hopefully I didn't offend anyone either. |
half right.
Main land Europe is on the whole a racist place, particularly northern, southern and easten europe... spain has a major problem with racism, evidenced at football matches and the grand prix for instance. Much of it is quite under populated and could do with some immigrtation.
The UK is very different, immigration had been a huge part of its history for centuries. Cities such as Bradford and Leicester have an asian majority for instance. The UK is also different in that it is pretty much full. Socially and logistically it is hard for the Uk to take much more.

What the hell is this misinformation? Northern Europe is racist?
And Spain" has a major problem with racism" and is largely underpopulated? Do you know that no other country in the West has accepted as many immigrants as Spain in the last two decades? 6.5 million immigrants in 15 years! Spain's population went from 39.5 mill in 1995 to 46 million in 2009, which procentually is a new record in the West post-WW2.
I'd say they have a major problem with immigration rather than racism.

Yes spain has a problem with racism.... where else do you hear monkey noises made at black footballers, its accepted, nobody bats an eyelid. Did you see all the posters and flags at the spanish grand prix aimed at lewis hamilton?

I agree that they're probably on the more racist side of the spectrum of inhabitants in Europe, but those people you refer to are mostly thugs and hooligans.
Besides, racism is out of this topic. Being critical of immigration and it's problems is something completely different.
