You should have a read of his post on Islam. He keeps refering to us(white europeans) as Nordics. Hitler did that. But anyway i just folled the link again to flag it as i hadn't thought of it, and the page is gone so i suppose it's thanks, in part to this post. I flagged his blog anyway.

I do know about the rich tinkers from England who came on their holidays and took over the car-park in Kilkee, blocking the slipway so that the Shannon rescue service couldn't launch their boat. Therse were not poor people, and to me, a compliant citizen, that behaviour said Fuck You! On the other point, if you want to debate with the racist, go right ahead. I'm not trying to stop you. Just be aware that you'll be legitimising his agenda. I don't know anything about low-income blacks.

Whether these characteristics are from nature, nurture or a combination of both is another debate. In other words do most tinkers (in Ireland) or most low income blacks (in New Orleans) give a flying fuck about the society around them? I don't know what you mean about ground rules. Either your point of view or his bears scrutiny or it doesn't. I would just like to see an informed debate and don't see why it appears to be such a taboo subject. I have been the recipient of 'racist' comments but I'm strong enough in my own mind to place them where they belong. I have my own view of races, formed mainly through my own experiences, but would never think this view was written in stone.

We had a debate on that very subject <a href=http://bocktherobber.com/2008/08/cripples-retards-and-politically-correct-euphemism rel="nofollow">here</a> not so long ago. There's no point deconstructing the racist fool's post: that would be allowing him to set the ground-rules. The difference with tinkers is that they're part of us, though their genetic stock might be more confined due to high rates of intermarriage. Most of them, as far as I can see, couldn't give a flying fuck about the society around them. Dan — As you know, I don't do PC. We had a debate on that very subject here not so long ago.

But the point remains the same whether you classify them as a race or not. I was hoping someone would deconstruct the points made in the racist blog about hurricane Katrina but the debate doesn't go there. On a related matter I went to check out the reaction from Saorla to Kevin Myers article and discovered that its now un-PC to say someone has AIDS and everyone is to say someone living with the HIV virus. I'm beginning to feel really old. I'm off to my cave where I will sit and debate the pros and cons on my own and in my own language.
