Forums - General - Migrant warns Africans off ‘misery’ Europe

It's doubtful the article, regardless of who published it (Tyrannical or otherwise) explained the whole story.

I question how this Omar Ba treated the French when he arrived. He obviously didn't want to go through official channels to become a legalized French citizen. How did he treat those around him? Maybe they weren't jerks as much as he argues, but he was a jerk to them.

Maybe that's just me. He never mentions anything like 'oh, I worked so hard and they rejected me!' - He comes from a different culture. I remember one African gentleman that I worked with that talked about female circumscision being rather normal in his country - such a gruesome process - as being rather rational and normal. Maybe this man didn't treat the women he wanted to entice with proper 1st world respect? I mean, in the US, it's never mattered what you looked like, but how you lived...We have tons of racially mixed families because people fell in love with those they thought compatible.

There's more to this story, I think, than a poor, unfortunate man from Senegal falling into the trap of poverty.

I dont like immigration. Certainly not in England. Yes im fine with the people who come to this country to benefit the economy work and be a benefit to society. But i hate the people that arnt natives and take advantage of our healthcare which they havent been contributing to there whole lives and sponge off the government.

I feel particuarly annoyed when people of a different nationality get chosen ahead of a native. What right have they to get the job? Fair enough the employer thinks that because this person has come from overseas to work he might work harder but it is wrong.

Its fine with people from EU countries coming in to England. In general they come to wrk and they are quite within there rights too come. I dont understand why there is still such an influx of non EU nationals "flooding" into the country. They are taking British jobs from British workers and then we wonder why there are millions more people unemployed from past years.

It annoys me. Im not racist. I just feel that Natives in whatever country should get access to a job in that country first. You may say that is discrimination but i dont care. It works all ways.

At the end of the day race is just like hair color or something else.  People are going to have prefrences.  Like that one friend you probably have who's wild for Red Heads... etc.

 Racial differences are more then skin deep. You can identify race from bone structure.

 

So? What's your point?

 

it seems his point was race wasnt an equivalent to hair colour

It's basically just a "looks" thing however.  Prefrences based on that isn't any more wrong then hair color.

Even legal immigrants... and 2nd/3rd generation people who were born in france are treated the same way.

 



This is why immigrants flock to the own and create their own country inside the new country.

Perhaps they should leave if they don't like they way they are treated.

 



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

This website is a multicultural community and this thread is clearly insulting and offensive to many of us.

 



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Seems pretty monocultural around here to me. People here all love video games regardless of what country they are from.
