qazitory Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 How did you determine these people walking past you were racists? Were they wearing badges or something? I just thought the same? Was there a KKK march going past??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phili Buster Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Should we believe these figures? What needs to be remembered is that "there are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alas_alas Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 For those of a literal frame of mind, please note that this was a satirical response to an earlier thread started by a poster who probably intended to fan the flames of xenophobia on the forum. The language used was the OPs, not mine, with some words changed, and the statistics are entirely made up (like the OPs were). This previous thread has now been removed, presumably for soliciting responses from an intolerant if not racist minority (the 2%?), so this one makes less sense now. Sorry for any confusion caused. Still, what with the appearance of a new thread about a hate-crime against gay people in the city centre, perhaps my made-up statistics are less than fictional. A vocal minority seems intent on making known their intolerance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I blame the immigrants. They've come over here and taken all our valid statistics leaving us to make up our own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
