Whilst I don't advocate open immigration, I'm pretty sure I'd much rather an immigrant who works hard, contributes and is pleasant as a neighbour than some of the (seemingly) racist scapegoaters on here. Hey Nick, you're doing your own lefty 'word bingo'.
Some of the attitudes and language towards immigrants and Muslims on this site is borderline racist.

Mod Hat on - Can you avoid denigration, repetition and asking rhetorical questions which you already know the answer to. It makes it difficult for other posters to engage. No personal attacks, even ones obfuscated and please avoid rhetorical questions, especially ones you've already asked.

Who has been making 'borderline racist' remarks? I've only dipped in and out of this thread.....I must of missed something. Also.....I don't know if a remark can be 'borderline racist' anyway.....It either is or it isn't.

I don't think he's referring to you Stirling. No, I didn't think so either.....I genuinely don't know what's occurred and the thread is so big now I'm almost scared to read it beyond the last few pages. I quite like Nick....Something must have rattled his cage. Edited by Stirlingsays (14 Aug 2015 3.19pm)

But there have been many, what I would call borderline racist comments appearing on this site.

You can't be racist towards Muslims, they aren't a race. Xenophobic, perhaps, but I'm not sure there's a rule against that Just for clarity - other than that, I largely agree that many of the opinions are a little distasteful, but I'm willing to put it down to poor or hurried choice of words.
