No not quite as right wing as the BNP, but I suppose I would have preponderances towards the right of centre with my political views.
Why do you want me to label a specific nationality? Do you belong to one of them? I really hope it's not French! The people I wouldn't admit into my country would be the ones who don't want to compliment our society and become a burden on it. Those that insist on imposing their moral and religious beliefs on mine. Those that hide under the blanket of racism and repression as a convenient answer to non-compliance with our values and laws.
I agree with you that I cannot claim the moral high ground over a Haitian, just because I come from a rich country. I never did so. But why can't I claim it as a valid law abiding contributor, over a lawless gang of immigrant thugs? Obviously I'm not indicting all Haitians in this country, but it has been recognised to be a problem in this neighbourhood.
Don't worry, I am not French!!
In fact I am from a Yorkshire family that can trace itself back to the dark ages. (No not the 70's, the real dark ages)
I am about as English as you can possibly get.
All immigrants come from another country.
It somewhat defines who they are.
Which countries do the immigrants that you personally disapprove of come from? The ones that are a burden and try to impose their moral and religious beliefs on you. I had nobody trying to impose anything on me in my 30 odd years in the UK. (Apart from onerous taxes and ridiculous drink driving regulations - and fortunately they did not manage to impose these on me in any meaningful way)
Haitians are not as a rule 'a lawless gang of immigrant thugs' in the D.R.
And even if you say that you do not mean all of them - you still seem to think that this is the case for the majority.
That is very sad, not true and, yes, bordering on the discriminatory.
Being a valid (?) law abiding contributor is not a special achievement which needs recognition. That is the very least you should be. So, no, that gives you no moral high ground over Haitians in the D.R.
And all the stuff about non-compliance with our laws and values - Please do not include me in that 'we'.
We obviously have very different values.
