White Population in the World Set to Drop from 17% to 7% by 2050
White Population in the World Set to Drop from 17% to 7% by 2050
While the populations of Europe, Russia, and the US have levelled off and even decreased, the populations of China and Africa are accelerating beyond all expectations. Immigration reduced the percentage of Whites in the US from 99% when the US Constitution was written to only 71% today, and similar patterns are being followed in several European countries because of the failure by their governments to do anything about unbridled immigration. http://img520.imageshack.us/img520/8...lation2hm0.gif |

That must be one of the biggest outright lies I have ever heard.... 99% indeed. I'll be chuckling about that one for a long long time. |

I guess the OP isn't factoring in the non voting population. Heck back then even the women had no say or vote in things. Isn't it wonderful that the racists that use reverse discrimination have such a broad shouldered target to rest thier justifacations upon? |

Chinese cowboys seem to have existed only in your imagination. Cites to the contrary much appreciated. |

The huge majority of cowboys were black or Chinese - and what they actually did was herd cattle. But I guess that won't put backsides on seats in movie theatres. My goodness, little boy, what strange history books *you've* been reading! There *were* black cowboys in the old west, and a fair number of Hispanics as well, but they weren't a majority, and so far as recorded history goes there were no Chinese cowboys worth mentioning unless you count the occasional chuck-wagon cook, Etc. In the heat of your fever you may have confused "Chinese cowboys" with "Chinese construction workers" who actually *did* do the majority of the dirty work in literally blasting the Central Pacific Railroad through California's Sierra Nevada mountains on the way east to Promontory Point (turned out the Irish weren't tough enough for the job) but there were very few if any Chinese cowboys. There's a good reason for this. A competent cowboy had typically been roping and riding (and doing everything else cowboy-related as well) since about the time he was big enough to sit astride a horse without being actually tied on. This is still true in some parts of the American west. Your typical Chinese immigrant on the other hand was a young-to-middle-aged man of the peasant class who had most likely *seen* horses on several occasions during his earlier life, but the odds of him having ever been in a saddle were practically nil; much less had he ever learned to toss a lariat, castrate bull calves, Etc., nor had he ever been afforded any way to acquire *any* of the skills needed to perform the job in question. These are *not* skills that one picks up overnight, and just as today, employers preferred to hire workers who had at least *some* background in the field. And spoke the same language as well. Sorry. |

Ah, I see you studied your history from such authoritative works as Rawhide and Wagon Train. Certainly in the northern reaches there were considerable numbers of white cowboys, but further south there were countless operations staffed almost entirely by black labour even after abolition. It is true that most of these men did their work on foot rather than mounted - maybe you think this means they don't count as real cowboys? d -- Pearce Consulting http://www.pearce.uk.com |

"Don Pearce" wrote Ah, I see you studied your history from such authoritative works as Rawhide and Wagon Train. Heh. I majored in history -and psychology- and taught at the University of California for twelve years thereafter. That included reading really honest-to-goodness history texts written by really honest-to-goodness American history scholars, and it's pretty amusing to hear a Brit try to teach American history to someone who was raised in the American southwest, went to school there, and has taught the subject himself. But hey; feel free to cite your authoritative texts that show that (in your words) "the huge majority of cowboys were black or Chinese". |

White Population in the World Set to Drop from 17% to 7% by 2050 While the populations of Europe, Russia, and the US have levelled off and even decreased, Bad rendition of current events. The population of the US is continuing to increase. the populations of China and Africa are accelerating beyond all expectations. You forgot about India. No small omission. Yet another bad rendition of current events. Immigration reduced the percentage of Whites in the US from 99% when the US Constitution was written to only 71% today, Even if this were true, so what? Do you think that non-whites are somehow less worthy or less human than whites? Why would that be? Do you think that genetics might have something to do with it? If so, forget that because very few people in the world are racially pure. Do you think that just because a person has dark skin they are non-white? That's silly because there are plenty of examples of people whose majority of genes come from white people, who have dark skin and other physical traits of so-called non-whites, and vice-versa. If genes are that important, why aren't you showing due respect for people's genes instead of the color of their skin? Do you think that racial purity is necessarily a good thing? Again, if racial characteristic and genetics are that important to you, why are you discounting the benefits of hybrid vigor? Not only don't you have a clue about current events, you don't know much about history. There were a ton of African slaves in the south when the US Constitution was written, which is one reason why it was written in such a way as to not obviously prohibit slavery. Some estimate that the population of the US included about 20% african slaves during the mid 1700s. and similar patterns are being followed in several European countries because of the failure by their governments to do anything about unbridled immigration. Now cccccdfgdfgdgdfg, you're back talking trash about current population trends. http://img520.imageshack.us/img520/8...lation2hm0.gif Not sufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that was presented by the OP. |

Gee, Arny, I would think that it's pretty obvious that, yes, this moron thinks that non-whites are somehow "less worthy or less human" than whites. I'm not sure which group you're seeing this stuff in (guessing rec.audio.pro, from the days I used to see you when I hung around the audio groups), but I'm getting it via rec.motorcycles, where unfortunately we seem to attract more than the usual share of brainless bigots who post the idiocy. Exactly WHY they post it, I've never been really clear on - on the surface, of course, it seems like an incredibly clumsy attempt to demonstrate some supposed "superiority" of the white race, but it always winds up being so completely lacking in anything even resembling intelligence that it winds up doing just the opposite. Assuming, of course, that the orignial posters are white; as far as I can tell, many of them shouldn't even qualify as human. Bob M. |

You just stuck a wrench in your credibility with the comment about the white race. Those anthropologists that use to say there were 3 races have all concluded that there is less then .001% DNA change between any and all people and that we are ALL one race. There is no white race recognized. Having said that, it doesn't change the fact that we all have our pre conceived hate and most of us got it from our parents. Take a look at old movies and gasp with the hate people had just a few years back... Anyway, my prejudice is simple, anyone that thinks to much of them self or values money over life or acts stupid on purpose or doesn't care about the well being of others if stepping on others will raise something in there, life gets my hate vote. |

Sure, Don, but even if there is no direct cause and effect between Columbus' specific expeditions and the en masse arrival of white Europeans in North America, a rising North American white population was a result of explorations such as Columbus'. Perhaps more to the point, do you know any rhyming couplets involving any of Columbus' contemporaries? -- ================================================== ====================== Michael Kesti | "And like, one and one don't make | two, one and one make one." mrkesti at hotmail dot com | - The Who, Bargain |
