My Irish friend in McKinney TX sent me this video. I Exposed Ireland’s Immigrant Invasion… He’s considering moving back home as he’s unhappy where he is now and all his family is still there. He also talked to me about coming back to CA and I am trying to talk him out of even considering that.
Elena and I have talked about the increase in Indian businesses and institutions but we have not had or seen any problems from it. It might be because we are old and have no children. We are not socially active so we don’t have many interactions with others. It just hasn’t touched us, but it might have much more impact on others. Our neighborhoods are very diverse and I am used to this and tend to like it. We do seem to be mostly surrounded by old folks or young families. Otherwise quite a mix.
Hi, Mac. Apparently in his part of town, a large influx of Indians. He mentioned they went to their park with their infant and with hundreds of people there, they were the only white folks. Also said that houses on their street have been converted to Section 8 housing. He’s not a racist by any means, just that he’d like to be in a neighborhood raising his son where he doesn’t feel like the outsider.
Happy Monday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Sven and Mac!
Thanks for the video link, Sven. When in Belfast, Mrs. Paddy and I took a taxi tour centered on “The Troubles”. Our driver grew up in the affected area and presented both sides of the issue in an even-handed manner and discussed how the issues are far from resolved. When I brought up recent events in Belfast surrounding the immigrant community, he quickly changed the subject. I thought that was very telling. Ireland has a mandatory retirement age of 65, but you aren’t eligible for a pension until 66. Meanwhile, the government is handing out euros to “asylum seekers”.
Good morning, Paddy. Unexpectedly, what struck me in the video was the welcome absence of cell phones. Watch the crowds in the background while he’s doing an interview -- very few people walking around staring at their cell phones.
Thread pic: Probably happens more often than not.
Good morning, GN!
