Wasn't when we'all dropped in to say hello in 1492.
OR when y'all dropped in on the original Aussies so long ago.
AND North Am. ain't Anglo-Saxon now either. You might wanna visit.
Bottom line is that our ancestors popped in, dropped off some diseases which killed off the vast majority, although who knew at the time. Then we came in with guns and killed off the rest leaving a pitiful few to lick their wounds in the corner. It was a case of "tough titty".
Now you are suggesting that these immigrants act in a different manner than your fore bearers? (and mine)
I am not suggesting that they are right in acting like this. No one is and all the guilty should cool their heels in the slammer, just like anyone who impinges on anyone else.
Just not sure that giving the public Carte Blanche to permit cultural genocide as was practiced in the new lands that the Anglo Saxons stumbled upon way back when, is the way to go. Hey you let 'em in.
All your points are invalid in a ridiculous way. For one thing, the American culture got started with the Constitution way after 1492. Plus, aboriginal culture now forms only a tiny part of overall Australian culture. And besides I am talking about the present, not the dead past. The number of non-Anglo-Saxons nowadays is also irrelevant as I am talking about the dominant culture not the people. I mean, you don't see Asian immigrants to the USA choosing to give their children Chinese first names, for example, it's Anglo-Saxon ones they usually give them.
As for "cultural genocide" that's truly absurd. I mean, banning sharia law and the burqa in the UK would not be committing cultural genocide as sharia law is alive and well in parts of the Middle-East. Besides, it's a question of "face". When you are invited into someone's home, you are expected to be polite and not smash your host's furniture for a laugh or because you resent his success in life. Same applies when you are an immigrant in a foreign country. Although immigration seems actually irrelevant in these riots, as many rioters weren't immigrants at all.
Incidentally, the poverty/fatherless society claims are bogus, now that the identity of some of the looters has been made known. A rich businessman's daughter, for example...
Besides, not having a father is no excuse for appalling behaviour. There are many people who have been sexually abused by their parents or worse who've behaved well in life.
Hmm, all this anti-women stuff must be really pissing off the female members here. I mean, problems in any society are always caused by both genders, for obvious reasons. Still, women also have their delusions, such as the notion that if women controlled the world, that there would no longer be any wars.
