Here you have one racist writing against other racists.
Many years ago, you had Buchanan type racists writing columns, warning of the dangers of letting too many Irish and German immigrants into the country.

Please point out exactly what was said in this article that you find racist. Do not dredge up any ancient history to support your thesis.

"...warning of the dangers of letting too many Irish and German immigrants into the country." I believe it came from my Mescalero Apache cousins in New Mexico.

"Many years ago, you had Buchanan type racists writing columns, warning of the dangers of letting too many Irish and German immigrants into the country." Why do you toss in the 'race' card, when someone takes exception to the fact that a racist meeting took place aimed at screwing you ( if your an American of European lineage )?
You should be thankful this matter was brought to our attention by Mr. Buchanan. I am.

WASPs said letting them in would lead to increased taxes, government-as-caretaker and socialism among other things.
Were they wrong in their predictions?
So, I'll guess marxism is o.k. with you too?
If you like communism so much why don't you at least visit a communist nation? Better yet, move there.
People don't come to America for communism, but for freedom. They find freedom too hard so they use their political power to recreate the despotic regimes they left, only with them as the leaders. Visit any politically active ghetto/barrio and you'll see their ethno-political model in action. Better yet, visit Cuba chump.

The article isn't about Pat. And in THIS article an excellent and valid point is made. Suppose our kids wanted to have "white proms" or a "white awareness" group. There are any number of parallels to what the various ethnic minorities, most notably blacks, have. The point being made is that it is either racist to have these special groups or it isn't. Personally, I am of the opinion that there is nothing wrong with ethnic pride, white or black, and in a "free" society we should be able to express it. I'm not even sure there is anything wrong with it if some people choose not to associate with members of another race as long as there is no crime committed against anybody. Oh sure, people have to associate in some settings just because of where they happen to be at any given time, but I don't think being exclusionary is necessarily always bad. It is a matter of freedom and choice.

Here you have one racist writing against other racists. I believe what you have here is someone pointing out the absurdity of the 'minority' ideology. If it's okay for blacks or 'latinos' to congregate based on some genetic commonalities it should be okay for 'whites' to do the same. If it's not okay for whites to do the above, then the blacks/latinos who do so are as 'far-right', dangerous, disgusting racists are the 'white power' types.
Forget about who says what or who said what in the past. Is the logic above flawless or not? If not, then why not?
