That's like saying "Because you're white you have no opinion"
I have an opinion -- blow off.

Yeah, I said that too. And?

Some point in your family tree, the same use of "foreigner" (used as an epithet) applied to your relatives.
It's pretty ridiculous to demand foreigners suddenly behave like whites now, isn't it?

Your statement implies that there is a foreigner problem, which begs the question what to with it...
(May 25, 2014 at 6:31 pm)Cinjin Wrote: No, it's nothing like that. Thats apples and oranges. Your neighbors politics are not going to interfere with your life when everyone in the neighborhood has a different viewpoint.
It's not something you can change. That was my point. Woosh.

I'm doubtful of that for one of my neighbors. In Oakland, I did get hate for being white in a mixed neighborhood. Hate from other Americans. Glad I moved away.

I don't assume what happens at other people's houses. And neither should you.

I was heading off the "Immigrants should assimilate and learn the language rabble rabble rabble".

Let's see -- you frothe at the mouth about "foreigners"!
How was that not framing "foreigners" as a problem?
Seriously, I am having trouble reconciling your views here -- you rail about "foreigners":

I guess you're totally cool with a overrunning problem!

You know what. Fuck it. I didn't intend for you to get upset with the preceding quote. I don't care too much to escalate this further.
