Man, stop talking to cliches. We need to update our communication protocols. You have a stereotyped idea of me. Maybe you images me like a hipster with bard, branded clothes, and Iphone latest model resting on the "Capital" of Marx. As I imagine you as a Nazi skinheads dressed in black and bald. Before continuing what if we slacken for a moment the tension and we present ourselves? I do not even know how old you are. I just know that you live in the Netherlands from what you wrote. What you think about it?

Who the fuck cares how someone looks like? I know your ideas from what you said in this thread and that does classify you dangerously close to hipster ideology, aka gutmenschen.

Do you want to calm down? You won't change the world by showing that you have the biggest dick in this thread. Just to know, what idea you've done to me?

From what I know, you started accusing us of being racists and nazis and called me personally unintelligent. You finally stop being able to refute anything back and now you resort to this?

First, I stopped to respond because the discussion was going on too far, and instead discuss arguments we were talking about people.
Second, I'm sorry if you think I believe you unintelligent. It was not my intention
Third: if you call any non-European people "sandnigger", and propose to close borders and deport immigrants, I'm sorry, but objectively you are a racist. Maybe not a Nazi, but definitely a racist. It is not me, it the dictionary.
So if we have to keep talking per stereotypes, I'm sorry, I don't want to go on like this.

Indeed.

It will take real courage to deport the hundreds of thousands of benefit tourists. The courage to tell them they are lying sacks of shit.


I have a hard time believing that Syrians, Iraqis and Afghans are leaving their homes by the hundreds of thousands and crossing the Aegean Sea and risking their lives because their respective countries' GDP growth in the last few quarters has been negative.

Are you sure that the fact that these countries are war torn might have nothing to do with the fact that people are leaving them?

You do know that the benefits they get here are way more than whatever they earn there, right? Just go here and whine for a day and they get free moneyz for the rest of their lifes.

Besides, you go forth and conquer Europe in the name of Allah, Mohammed and the Caliph. They're doing this not only for the money.

And they say they have realized, rather belatedly, that smugglers had sold them a pack of lies about big houses, well-paying jobs and the life of luxury they would find in Germany.


Someone who is fleeing for their life doesn't consider going home because the food is bad and the living conditions are cramped. The vast majority of people coming to Europe are NOT displaced people. They were not forced to leave by war. They choose to leave because they calculated they could have a better life in Europe and they know that being from somewhere like Iraq means people like you won't be willing to question if they were ever actually in mortal danger.

If it's something "known", I'm sure you can demonstrate that, once adjusted for cost of living between western Europe and pre-war Syria, a person will receive more money from state benefits than stable employment in their home country.

The thing is that there isn't stable employment in the Middle East right now. They've been doing economically bad for these past few years.

Before that migration, the only big migrant groups we've got were the ones that didn't have any jobs in their home countries, mostly Turkey and Morocco, and choose to 'work' in Europe.

There's this certain phrase I used, maybe you can spot it if you read what I posted.

Of course if it is not possible to work in their home countries as you claim, and therefore not possible to, you know, live since there's no money, that seems like a decent case to be made for refuge from circumstance.

I see hundreds of immigrants who peddle or beg. Especially peddling. But becouse some are offenders ALL should be punished? If you are a criminal, you have to go to jail. If the police does not work, is not the fault of immigrants. It's your government fault, that does not cares about you.

You really think you can stop this issue with just some policemen? Fuck no, these policemen are scared because their families could get harassed by muslim gangs.

Muslims in Europe have developed a disastrous ideology which is mixed from the Black 'Hoodz' culture from America and Islam. Also, it's always you middle class types preaching about "Islam is not a bad thing" when you don't SEE what is truly happening. A few hundreds of beggars do not compare to the hundreds of thousands of muslim men grouping up in gangs to rape our women and destroy everything my forefathers have built up.

Why don't you build up something? Become a police officer if you think you can do a better job.

You're using the dumb "liberal university intellectuals" stereotype. I expect better substantiated arguments from you, Balk.

Let me put this in a way that might make since.

What Europe is doing is shooting itself in the foot and calling it progress, for the third time in a hundred years.

For some fucking reason, there is a concession among the left that European nation states MUST be multicultural, despite said nation states were created for the people living within their borders, as Germans, Italian, Poles, Czechs and French. And now the the EU is some bloated bureaucratic nightmare that appears to place priority on migrants instead of the Natives that have been living there for centuries.

For a while ive been on the fence, but with the rotherham scandal, Charlie hebdo and the cologne attacks...its hard not to be skeptical of leftists that scream up and down that there is no problem with Immigration in Europe.

THere is no problem with immigration in Europe.

There have been a few well-televised criminal events (like Cologne) and terrorrist act, but - in terms of statistics, and the average German's or Frenchman's chance of being assaulted in a criminal or terrorist attack - crime rates in France and Germany are low, and declined over the past 10 years.
