C'mon, spec- that's not fair.

Quote from traderNik:

You should stick to your field of expertise (proving by your posts that you're of sub-par intelligence, the result of being the product of a poor quality gene pool).

Population genetics obviously isn't it.

What, specifically, do you dispute in what I have said?

Quote from traderNik:

I may or may not be the other that you mention when you say 'both of you', clay. In any case, it won't do you any good pointing out to this member the fallacies involved in assuming a direct, 100% correlation between genotype and phenotype. He just won't be able to get it, and in fact he has no desire to think about it. His beliefs comfort him as he attempts to make his way in a world which he can't understand.

Nikky-poo, I think I have a rather more solid grasp of the world than you. Quite certain of it, actually.

But how would ever be able to determine which us is correct? I know! We could debate the issues! What a novel concept! Come to think of it, that's how all other issues are treated, so why not this one? Is it because your own 'comforting' beliefs appear threatened? Me thinks so.

His beliefs are intellectually immature; however, I would rather deal only with people like this, who are relatively harmless, as opposed to those whose hatred is based on a constructed philosophy of hate.

And this is the way you 'deal' with people like me, is it? With 'maturity' like that, I should be glad I'm 'immature'.

You're right, Dan.

By the way, you're from Australia, right?

You're an enigma wrapped in a riddle inside a mystery - or however the line goes - Nik.

Erm, good luck to you, too...I guess.

As far as I'm concerned, Australia should be kept WASP (White Anglo-Saxon Protestant), the very same people who founded and built this country from scratch. So if you're of Italian, Greek, Serbian, Croatian, Yugoslavian, Russian, Turkish, Arabic, Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese, Samoan or Fijian descent and can't trace your ancestors to the British Isles, then you're an immigrant infidel and should go back to wherever you came from.

What do you think of that, spect8tor?

:eek:
This clearly is a joke right? Oh, I'm sorry. You're looking at the two segments that hang out on MTV and BET. I see. For a minute there I thought you might be addressing the rest of us out here. You might drop that 100 down to about 87 though. They do tend to emulate the black rappers a lot today.

Does Paris Hilton count? That's itself is easily worth a collective group hit of about 6 points as she seems to be accepted as ok and normal for that type of individual. I'm sure this would give rise to complaint though as that would make them less than the African American segment. And we can't have that, now can we?

Quote from spect8or:

The group of average of African American IQs is about 85 (possibly a lower, maybe 82), while the group average of American whites is 100.

No psychometrician disputes this fact. The only question is to what role genetics play in the disparity.

I am convinced by the evidence I have seen that genes account for at least 50% of the difference, and possibly up to 80%.

However, since you're content to dismiss such intellectual inquiry as 'whacked out', I see no reason to continue this discussion.

Blacks (of West African descent, such as were American slaves) are certainly superior in sports that require strength, power and speed. West Africans hold something like 95% of the 500 fastest times in the 100m sprint. There is plenty more evidence I could submit, too, but again, this, I guess, is all 'whacked out' to you, so good day.

I apologize for the late reply.

To answer your question, the short version is that that's certainly an understandable sentiment. Immigrants to Australia didn't really contribute anything that Anglo-Australians wouldn't have been able to achieve on their own. European immigration does not seem to me to have been particularly costly, but one could possibly make that argument, I would imagine. Immigration from Samoa, Fiji, Vietnam, Lebanon, Africa (in particular) have detracted from the quality of life in Australia, I think that's clear.

Really, though, I, personally, have never advocated 'sending' anybody 'back' anywhere. That would be quite a drastic and difficult solution. I simply wish to see the decline arrested. Part of that process requires facing up to racial reality. We can have no confidence in any 'solution' that fails to take into account race.
