    But facts are facts, why should it be racism if figures show polish, Australian or Turkish immigrants commit more crime per percentage of population than any other group....I don't think thats racist to be honest.

    As an Australian, I take offence at that :p

    The bloke in your pub said it was the Japanese. You said you didn't know and asked us to tell you.

    Where has Australian, Polish and Turkish come from?

    You cannot even talk about Jews in America.

    Kim Wilde went there and sung about them though...

    There's a new wave coming, I warn ya
    We're the Yids in America (Whoa)

    There's a secret forum for those subject, so I hear. But it's only for the special people.

    Can you put a good word in for us.

    No, I mean those who can't have a civilised and mature discussion.

    Other than some topics that have or are part of legal proceedings, everything is up for debate. No?

    Really? What about a hypothetical case where there were no legal proceedings going on, and the prime suspect was dead. Could we discuss that?

    Or could we only do that when the hypothetical police declared that the hypothetical dead prime suspect was definitely the hypothetical culprit?

    Huh?

    Anyway, the hunt for the Boston Bombers seemed fair game and that fits with your hypothetical scenario.

    I remember seeing a forum where an American swore blind that Hey Jude by the Beatles was actually Hey Jew.

    I have found on here and some other forums that certain things are taboo and will quickly get locked if people give their honest opinions, I am sure you know what kind of subjects are frowned upon with crime statistics and nationalities who commit crime in the UK being one of them especially when their is official figures to back up these results...strange country we live in hey.

    There was a main feature on newsnight a few weeks back about gang rape and sexual abuse of girls with them having to give oral sex to the group, and the like.

    I couldn't see a thread on it on here. It reminded me of the ch4 documentary several years ago about black gangs and their views of girls being pieces of meat. The girls couldn't go to the police for fear of reprisals.

    :confused: When do Turkish and Australians even get the chance to interact? Excluding the time around ANZAC day.

    Now that is funny :D

    In edit....
    I thought you meant *******, but I have just googled that term and now have read what it actually means.
    Well I have learned yet another new thing :)


    Well, that intrigued me so much I had to google it too. I'm now disappointed, because it wasn't something filthy.

    I think that may be the first time I've googled an expression first encountered on here and it HASN'T been filthy, which says a lot for this forum.

    One of the people in that thread are known to resort to the report button when things do not go their way. I suspect DS just auto-pilot lock a thread after a certain number of reports. Seems to be the case on busy forums and it explains how arbitrary the locks seem to be.

    Ffs, that's pretty lame to hit the report button!

    I know for a fact we cannot discuss the common problem of unflushable turds on here. Probably through grounds of decency.
