Default 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.

The White Population is the US was 99% at the time of the constitution.
LOL. You are funny!!!!!!!!!!!! Care to cite a reference for that? 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 had the very same reaction. 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?

He's typical of his type, I'm afraid. I'm always amused at American
cowboy films, with their virile white men doing brave things. 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.

http://www.epcc.edu/nwlibrary/border...ck_cowboys.htm

Per this El Paso site, it's believed that perhaps 25% of cowboys may
have been black.

Chinese cowboys seem to have existed only in your imagination.

Cites to the contrary much appreciated.

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?

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".

1790 Census

3,893,635 - Total population of the United States in 1790 according to
the U.S. Census.

694,280 / 59,150 - Population of enslaved Africans / free blacks in
the United States in 1790.
http://www.ushistory.org/presidentsh...es/numbers.htm

Percent of blacks in the U.S. in 1790 = 753,430 / 3,893,635 x 100
= 19.4%

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.

Not sufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that was presented by the

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.

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 he did but what has that to do with North America? You are aware
that he never went near the place in his life? Specifically not in
1492, although he did make it to South America sometime around 1500,
but by then everybody and his dog was going there.

Columbus sailed the ocean blue.

(Ah, c'mon. Somebody had to say it.)


Sure he did but what has that to do with North America? You are aware
that he never went near the place in his life? Specifically not in
1492, although he did make it to South America sometime around 1500,
but by then everybody and his dog was going there.


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?

Cuba is pretty near North America. Near enough to scare Kennedy anyway.

Older figures, e.g. before 1492, would give a different picture.


What happened in 1492?


Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man was created

Ah! good. Figured it must be something noteworthy.
