Well it wasn't a negative comment generally. I mean it's not my kind of listening material but its' the kind of music you'd find on Gran Turismo menu or something.
Why would I PM someone on a forum unless it was regarding personal information? I don't hide anything. If you want funnies where only text is a pun regarding a prior image, then go to reddit. Forums are for discussion. Bite me.
Well in that case you would be wrong. I'm not angry or frustrated at anyone, quite the opposite. But people don't realize, even myself at times. That these social issues aren't as clear cut as sometimes they seem to be.
There's just alot of people that like to give some sort of high-horse social commentary when the reality is they haven't seen any of these issues at eye level and I was quick to assume you were one of these people and I apologize for this.
Whilst I can't credit or dis-credit your personal story, I probably would still argue that here in the UK we have more issues socially than Austria probably will ever have but then our population in is ten fold so that's kind of obvious.
Though on a side note I find it interesting that more and more Romany people are coming to the UK but why not Austria anymore? I mean it's very close to their 'playground' [for want of a better word]. It's yet another social mystery.
Though regarding integration, it's not possible properly for still another 20 years or so. People are so desperate to force it upon people to mix with each other that they are in denial that it's working. Behind closed doors the majority of white folk don't like any minority coming in and the majority of the minorities coming in don't like those who are 'native' - whether people tolerate the individuals or not - because they don't feel welcome and so on. Proper integration happens over some generations. You can't just expect people to be automatically accepted. In a sense those people coming in have to prove themselves so to speak.
"I wouldn't invite a stranger to live in my home without them gaining my trust first." Is probably the best way to put it.
When I am in another country, or even another town I'm very conscious of my behaviour, littering etc because I feel it's not my place to degrade an area that's not mine. Just like I wouldn't shit on someone elses carpet, but as for my own carpet... well you know... accidents happen.
My point is that in the court of law they will and do use their race in a defence case. It's just how the world works now.
Coleus you're basically suggesting that it's ok for people to do dishonest activities because the government has failed them? Or are you just allowing them they priviledge because of their skin colour?
It's very stupid to blame a government practice for someones bad behaviour. Behaviour is still down to the individual choice.
There is a matter of fact that in the current social status people of certain ethnicity are persecuted unfairly but on the contrary people of the same ethnicity use their race as a get of a jail free card. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't, but they still do it and it's a fact.
It's nothing against those individuals, if you're facing jail time you'll say and do anything to get off the hook as any one of us would but there's no point ignoring the reality of it to suit some hippie world, where white people are the worst people unquestionably because of our past and we must all live in a big green field having a tea party and jerking each other off.
rant
We don't just look different to each other black from white, we behave different too. There's really no point ignoring the reality of this but when you live in Austria the kind of black people you're gonna get there are adopted into white society by parents who couldn't have kids of their own. So they won't behave like the black people would in Harlem or Croydon for instance.
You notice a big difference between people such as yourself and people such as I. You probably live in a house of 4 to 5 bedrooms in a small town full of hardworking white native Austrians.
I come from a place where minorities are growing bigger and bigger causing more and more tension (what ever the cause of the trouble may be it still happens to be revolving around them). I've been there in this country when black people roamed the street looting the place in the UK whilst white folk hid in their homes fearing for their lives. I've also been there to diffuse situations of a racial nature, [bullying at school etc] where white teens were beating down on a black boy purely on race.
We have different opinions. Funny that isn't it. One has had contact with other social groups and the other hasn't. Yet you sit there from afar saying how black people are treated badly. You're in another social world. You really have no room to comment here. In total how many black people have you even SEEN in person? Never mind how many have you met. You could probably count it on one hand right?
I know your type of person and you think you can judge other white people because you think you understand society in an intelligent way, when in reality you just don't have a clue. There's so many issues socially to one extent you could just say 'white society and black society at large, just don't mix' and you'd be right.
I apologize for going a bit mental but your demeanor on these type of a subjects really pisses me off. You think you have some kind of a valid opinion. You're from Austria where it's most likely 1000 white to 1 black and because you met 3 black guys in college you think that you understand it socially.
It's quite obvious that even the difference of tyre has 0 effect. Though I'm not sure HOW different the off-road tyre behaves in the quick-sand-like mud I know that it's behaviour on road is identical to all the other tyres.
