Here is where your claim totally falls apart though. Actually I relooked at it. Eastern Europeon men would fall under "White Britains." Since they are counting all white immigrants as White Britans. It was a mistake I made because I was rushign to work.
The ones with the 8.3 unemployment.
You aren't "telling it how it is". Maybe it's different in portugal... it ISN'T differenct in France, England or basically everywhere else in europe.
So... you've got one place where your way works better... and way more where it works worse... what does that tell you?
If you can even call portugal less racist. You've yet to offer any statistics. Not to mention when did portugal outlaw slavery compaired to the US?
Truth is... there probably is no problems in Portugal because there never was. Unlike England or France etc.

Dude, eastern european immigrants are but a fraction of white britains, and even several times smaller than black britains. Even if the eastern europeans (not even counting the ones without british naturalization) were counted, they would be diluted in the hundreds of times bigger amount of britain-born whites. Think straight.
PORTUGAL WAS THE FIRST TO ABOLISH SLAVERY!!! AND THE PORTUGUESE PEOPLE WERE EVEN BEING ENSLAVED BY AFRICANS MORE RECENTLY!!!
Up to 1.5 millions southern europeans were enslaved by Northern Africans, many of them portuguese. Look it up.
Portugal abolished slavery in 1761, but the portuguese were still being captured for slavery until 1810.
The portuguese were victims of slavery for 4 centuries. But you don't see acting us like wusses and asking benefits from muslims.
The Affirmitive Action is racist.

Nice job... you know. Missing the point.
We've come FAR farther then Europe has on Racism then MOST of Europe in a SHORTER amount of time.
Affirmitive Action may or may not be racist.
But it sure seems to have provided results.
Our overall statistics are FAR less racist than pretty much any other countries I've come across.... espeically countries like France who play the "No race card."
Your system fails... period.
Most of Europe is more Racist then America. This has been proven categorically with data. Just admit it and move on.

You really don't know how to hold an argument. The vast majority of the black people in Europe came from migration, and they definitely have an easier job of getting work than the eastern europeans immigrating to the west.
The fact is, the white people in Portugal aren't morally obligated to give anything to black people, nor any other minority. Everyone is responsible for their own path.
What Affirmitive Action has done is breed more fear and racism. I remember not so long ago, a white cop arrested a black teacher for slander and racist insults, yet the poor cop was hunted down by the media and ignorant racist people. His partner, a black cop, defended him and told everyone that his partner did the right thing, yet a portion of the black community insulted and harassed the black cop and his family, telling him that he was betraying his race for helping his friend. Even Obama (someone I think is racist), did nothing to calm everyone down, and just wanted to pull a promotional stunt.
Conclusion? Because of the pressure of ignorant people, the police was forced to release the black asshole with no charges. Tell, me where is the justice in that?

Right... clearly this is true due to your absolute complete lack of proof.
Note this flies in the face of all the evidence that shows that in most europeon countries... actual naturally born citizens of a differnt color and an ethnic name are FAR LESS likely to be called back for interviews... even when their credentials are superior.
Having an African or Arab name means you are FAR less likely to get a job then just about ANYBODY according to the studies, even if your more qualified then others apply.
It's VERY clear that Europe does NOT hire based on qualification. In fact, they do NOT hire on qualification MORE then the US.
Affirmitive Action, for all it's bad points is MOSTLY nothing but a bunch of equal oppurtunity laws and laws that maintain racial quotas soley for external benefit. Not the benefit of those being hired.
Two points i alredy mentioned, but you've ignored.
Europe = More racist then America by the stats.
Until you have stats to back yourself up... don't bother replying.
There is NOWHERE in the world where race is not an issue. Which is what's bothersome... the flippant "oh racism isn't a problem here" attitude, when the stats show otherwise... where you can gather it anyway, since a lot of it has to be done by third parties because some governments like France decide to outlaw the ability for the government to collect info based on race.

It's not race equality when a race gets more benefits than the other :\
Just because the french people screwed up, that doesn't mean the rest is the same. The US government forces companies to hire UNDER-QUALIFIED PEOPLE BASED ON RACE!!!! That is extremely racist.
Everytime I hear something in the US, it's always about racism. I remember once I was reading an article that said the number of black pros in Major League Baseball was decreasing (which it is), and in the end of the article it said that the article wasn't meant to be racist nor stating that blacks were inferior!
Answer me this: Why should the white portuguese have less benefits than racial minorities?
What about the poorest under-qualified white people? What would happen to them?
