‘When that starts happening, I think that we should stop ALL immigration to the USA except for non-Muslims from Great Britain, so that they might have an opportunity to escape what has become a seething cauldron of total insanity.’
Errr, whilst us Brits appreciate your generous offer, why would we want to move to a country with a helluva lot more muslims than we have, the ACLU, open borders and a dem govt? Our muslim immigration only amounts to 1.7m over 50 years and is declining rapidly - do you know how many muslims you have? How many wondered across the border last night? I know you guys like to read tabloid stories about how muslims run Britain, but it just ain’t so. After a century of immigration Britain is still 93% white anglo saxon celtic christian and our largest immigrant group in the past 5 years is Polish catholics. Rather than a seething cauldron of insanity as you put it, we are a conservative christian country with a low immigrant population and fairly secure borders. You only see the news report version of Britain, not the real thing.
Don’t think I am criticising the US - I have great admiration for your country, but I genuinely think you have bigger problems than we do in the area of immigration and the structure of your govt and constitution makes it harder for you to do anything about it.
Sorry Britmp, everyone on FR knows the truth.
Britain is like the last reel of “Dawn of the Dead”, with you, me and the other British FReepers living in a shopping mall desperately holding off the Zombies with our chainsaws.
Actually, no I didn't "put it" that way. My post was in response to Aria's "Errr...how long until breastfeeding in public is changed because the Muslims might be offended and riot?"
The key phrase in my post was "When that starts happening"", which to most folks means that it hasn't happened. Therefore it should be apparent that since the situation has not happened, it does not reflect my perspective of things at the present time This was obviously a hyperbolic, tongue-in-cheek exchange and was not a reflection of anyone's actual perception of the current state of affairs in Great Britain. It's unfortunate that you've taken my words out of context and then used them as an excuse to engage in the tired old stereotyping of the ignorant Americans who know nothing of the world around them and believe everything that's in the Brit tabloids. Please don't be so eager to take offense when no disrespect was expressed or even remotely implied.
