On analyses of your post I responded to, lets see why I responded like I did

I am sick to ******* death of hearing phrases such as 'Alienating' and 'segregating' and 'ostracising' when it comes to immigrants, especially Muslims.

and then you say:

The British people have opened up this country for them, welcomed them with open arms, and extended jobs or benefits to them

So you say you hate the word 'alienate' but then went on to 'alienate' Muslims from every other type of immigrant who apparently bleed our system dry?

You are an educated, intelligent woman Red, so this is beneath you - or maybe not.

I have extensively explained WHY I was referring specifically to Muslims.

1) This thread is specifically about Muslims.
2) The usage of the words 'Alienate' etc is in posts on this thread and was used specifically about Muslims.

I am alienating no one by pointing out the TRUTH that certain people are overlooking the very real fact that a lot of immigrants - especially Muslims - segregate themselves and want NO part of integrating with indigenious British people, or our way of life, or our laws and traditions and customs.

Now, if you can find GENUINE fault with that statement, then please enlighten me, but there is no need for dishonest 'straw clutching' in trying to make out that I am saying something which I am NOT saying.

As for my innocuous and perfectably normal use of the descriptor 'them' to describe a group of people - why do you attempt to make out that I am being 'racist' or that I am 'alienating' such a group by using such a normal word?

Should I laboriously write out the name of the group in full just so that I am not unjustly accused of being racist or xenophobic or anti-immigrant by opportunists reaching for straws?

No - I am not afraid to speak the truth - on this forum or in the real world. It is said on here that Trump is 'dangerous' and a 'fool' and that may well be the truth , because he sees 'things' that are not there. But there are other kinds of dangerous fools as well - those who CANNOT see what IS there - of which perhaps the worst of them are those who try to INTIMIDATE into silence those of us who CAN see what is there.
