The point I'm trying to make is that I don't buy that the US is a racist country.
The US is just as racist as Canada and Europe.

The US is just as racist as Canada and Europe. Apollo Apollo: Why do we even care what Castro says. The US is a melting pot of every culture on the planet. I don't see racialy motivated riots anywhere in the US,yet I see them all over Europe

There are racist people in every corner of the planet.
Are you saying that the US is indeed a racist country? and if so are you claiming that Canada is somehow immune from racism?

YOU said in YUOR quote/post that the U.S was exempt from racism yet Europe was a breeding ground for racism on a daily (monthly) basis. The point I'm making is that you're arguing yourself. Stop making statements that you later contradict.

I never said the US was exempt from racism. I said that I don't believe that the US is a racist country.
If the US was racist there is no way every religion on the planet could coexist within it's borders.
If Castro feels that the US is racist, he would have to include every other country on the planet as well.
Do you understand now?

This quote speaks for itself. You believe that teh U.S does not have racism and that Europe does, at a great extent no less, and I proved you wrong. Every religion and race does not live side by side in utter tolerance admiration. You're painting a rainbow colored world of fiction. Racism in the U.S i blatant and afroamerican rights is still a big issue in the U.S after 200 years.

Give me a break.
By your own logic, that would make Canada a racist country by the way we treat native americans.
What exactly is your opinion? All you've done is tried to put words in my mouth.
Is the US a racist country? If so how are they any worse than Canada or Europe? Can you answer these two simple questions?

Is the US a racist country? If so how are they any worse than Canada or Europe? Can you answer these two simple questions? I merely quoted you. What you write is of no consequence to me. You do not see racialy motivated riots in the U.S. What do you mean by that exactly? If you mean I put words into your mouth then be clear about your points and arguments so that there are is no room for misinterpretation. I proved your statement wrong by mentioning the LA riots which were is a racially motivated riot which also means that there clearly are racially motiovated riots in the U.S. How could I enterpret your post differently?! You then continued by stating that Europe was racist and that racism was common and unique to europe as oposed to the U.S where there is harmony between races and religions. Make this quick. I'm going to sleep.

You sound like you fell asleep 10 posts ago. The LA riots happened over 20 years ago and nothing of the sort has happened since. The US is about to elect a black president.
When was the last time Sweden did that? Europe is having much problems with immigration than the US. Are you even aware as to the situation on this side of the pond or do you find the forums in Sweden boring so you come onto Canadian ones.
Try not to portray your country as somehow superior because you are from from it......
Racism is Growing in Sweden September 20, 2008 by prince0772
By Prince.
There was an incidence last occured on the 19th of September 2008 in Stockholm which goes to confirm my fear about the rise of racism in Sweden.
This is an account of the event:
RACIAL DISCRIMINATION AT EAST BAR, Stureplan, Sweden On the 19th of September 2008, 3 guys with African background went to EAST BAR to have a nice night out. The 3 guys didn’t go out with their Swedish girlfriends. They just wanted to hang out, talk and have a drink. Two of these guys will drive home so possibly only one can have strong alcoholic drinks.
The security men did not allow them to go into the bar. At the time they arrived, one guy also waiting at the entrance told them that they will not be allowed to go in. He told them that he overheard one of the security guards swearing that no “BLACK” man would be allowed in.

Muslims face most racism in Sweden Published: 25 Oct 05 19:09 CET Online: http://www.thelocal.se/2363/20051025/Muslims are exposed to the most racial harassment in Sweden, according to a new report from the Board of Integration. Seven out of ten reports of ethnic discrimination came from people with a Muslim background, and almost 40% of those questioned in the survey said they had witnessed verbal abuse directed at Muslims. The report, Racism and Xenophobia in Sweden, also showed an increasing intolerance of immigration. "If you look at the whole period from 1999 to 2004 there has been a significant increase in the number of people who want to close Sweden's borders to immigration, from 35% to 45.5%," said the report's author, José Alberto Diaz.

Sweden Nazi Connection
The following book tells us about Sweden's crucial role in supplying Nazi Germany iron ore and military facilities. Especially notorious for their support to the Nazis were the Wallenberg family, SEB bank and SKF factory. The Swedish government was responsible for the most iron ore the Nazis received. Kiruna-Gällivare ore fields in Northern Sweden were all important to Nazi Germany. These massive deliveries of iron ore and military facilities from Sweden to Nazi Germany lengthened World War II. Casualties of the war have been estimated at 20 million killed in Europe. How many of them died due to Sweden's material support to Nazi Germany, is not known.
Gerard Aalders and Cees Wiebes The Art of Cloaking Ownership: The Secret Collaboration and Protection of the German War Industry by the Neutrals: The Case of Sweden. The University of Michigan Press. 208 pp. 1996 Fritz, Martin. Swedish iron ore and German steel, 1939-1940. Scandinavian Economic History Review 21, no.2: 133-144. 1985.
Firms located in 'neutral' Sweden supported the Nazis' financial and industrial leadership. The case of Enskilda, a bank owned by the still powerful Wallenberg family, proved to be particularly interesting. Among other things, Enskilda acted as a cloak for the Nazi regime and helped important German corporations like Bosch, IG Farben and Krupp to hide their foreign subsidiaries in order to avoid confiscation by the Allied governments.

Your post just reeks of desperation and anyone in their sound mind can see that you are making a fool out of yourself. It's poor taste not to post sources or links to sources when quoting articles. I hope you try bettering yorself after this mockery. You should be glad that you're not on my ignore list after this stunt.

Islamophobia, anti-semitism and attacks on refugees Who is behind rising racism across Europe? by Kevin Ovenden
SUCCESSIVE WAVES of immigrants arriving in Britain have faced racism. Every week in Britain there are attacks on asylum seekers.
Blacks and Asians still suffer from systematic discrimination in education, housing and jobs. Blacks are eight times more likely to face being stopped and searched by the police than whites.
In Britain and across Europe Nazi organisations like the British National Party (BNP) or the French National Front are at the heart of stoking up racism. As well as racism against blacks and Asians, these parties also have an older form of racism at their core. Virulent anti-Semitism remains central to the perverted worldview of neo-Nazis in Europe, the US and elsewhere.

I guess the truth hurts OPP. When I googled racism in Sweden, I got this
Web Results 1 - 10 of about 1,930,000 for racism in sweden. (0.09 seconds)
That's almost 2 million hits.
Maybe you should go to sleep because all you have proven is that you are anti-american and nothing more as you not have addressed a single question. All you do is bring up the LA riots that happened more than 20 years ago yet I can pull off dozens of recent racist articles from Sweden.
Nighty night Johanna.
