Your favourite immigrant group and why?

Mine are American expatriates. They comprise roughly 10% of downtown Reykjavík. They are usually well-educated and belong to some of the various cultural circles.

Uhm...in a country such as Greece with a massive influx of all kinds of immigrants and yet no infrastructure to accommodate them, it makes it hard to say.

But I guess it would be Bulgarians, as I've had the most positive impressions of them. :)

Well, they've lived in this country before I was born and longer than I have, but they're immigrants nevertheless. I appreciate the elderly Polish grandparents and great-grandparents of the people in my city. They're very nice and have great values.

Of the immigrants I have had personal experience with, it's the Cubans. I've been to south Florida many times, and the Cubans down there are great. There isn't a more patriotic group of immigrants than those from Cuba, especially those who arrived here in the 1960s. They truly love this country.

actually gypoes have grown from 600 000 to 1.5 - 2 million in 20 years, since revolution. it's still terrifying anyway.

as romanians have 1.5 babies/woman (+ immigration rate) and gypoes have 5.2 babies/woman, ethnic romanian population will be a minority in romania by 2060

romania will become gypsyland by 2060-2070 and add the predicted 2-3 million maghrebi + ssa + middle eastern population by then

There are so few immigrants in my own city but when i was living in Istanbul, i saw a lot of young people from some ex-commie countries like Moldovia, Ukraine, Romania. They were working so hard and they were quite polite. Btw i am not talking about hookers from these countries, don't get me wrong.

East asians are very hard working, and they don't like a lot of attention, distractions, and they don't cause a lot of controversy.

Everyone rags on Mexicans but they aren't nearly as bad as blacks (outside the ghetto). They work twice as hard as them, and unlike Blacks noone had to force Mexicans to do labour :lol: Ive come in contact with several blacks in "proffessional" jobs who act like ghetto trash. Most Mexicans ive met in the workplace have been very proffessional & nice.

Other Western Europeans, preferably Germanics. I don't consider Northern Dutch as immigrants. Germans seem to blend in very easily as well, mentality-wise. I even have a colleague from Eastern Germany (an Ossie). Just a German accent is what makes her somehow foreign.

If it's about non-Euro immigrants: I wouldn't know. I'm more inclined to like some groups less than I am to like more. I'd say Surinamese or so?

In South Africa I would say the Zimbabweans and the Malawians - usually refugees. They are usually well educated, honest and hard-working. Unlike our local black population that like to sit under a tree and do nothing, then want payment at the end of the day. When it comes to doing menial jobs (even if they are illegal) people prefer to employ them than our own blacks because of their work ethic. As a result they are not very popular amongst the local blacks. Once they get working visa's they are high in demand and do very well.

Also the Somali's. About two days after arriving here they set up small shops selling cigarettes, sweets and fruit. They work hard and are not liked by our local population because they actually work for their money.

The Nigerians have a hand in the drug trade and are generally nefarious characters. When my husband and I got married we met a woman in tears at the Home Affairs office. She and her boyfriend wanted to get married. When they arrived at the Department of Home Affairs they found out that she had been legally married for 5 years to some Nigerian guy she had never met in her life before. He, of course, had his citizenship by this time already. She was trying to get a divorce from this man because she wanted to marry her boyfriend and it was proving to be quite a battle because nobody could locate him to sign divorce papers. That's the Nigerians for you.

But yeah, Poles and Bulgarians I've met are generally hard working and family oriented people :)



2. Albanians,Georgians (except the criminals)

And the ones on the internet :D

About Georgians: there is a general tendency to categorize them in the organized crime group.

I don't know about men because I haven't met any, but I've met some Georgian women. I have a very positive impression of those. :thumb001:


3. Philippinos

Yes they are generally very quiet and reserved people.


unwanted

Egyptians are OK; especially those who are Christian. There was once a tavern owned by Egyptians (Coptic) near my house, I used to go there and the people were extremely polite.

Turks - there isn't anyone at least in Athens :p

Afghanis are the most dangerous and disgusting group of the lot, IMO, closely followed by Nigerians and Somalis.

Ethiopians are OK people, from what I've seen. They're also Christian so they adapt more easily.

Maybe their attitude depends on the country in which they settle. In Europe they become part of the system and go onto welfare. South Africa is not a welfare state and they have no choice other than to get their hands dirty. There are also often xenophobic attacks on them by local blacks and by the police (who are local blacks). The police go to their shops and rob them of all their belongings and beat them up, then go to "investigate" their own crime and squash the case.

I like the Somali's because they have manners, they are friendly and are not work-shy. But they survive on trade, buying and selling. Whereas the Zimbabweans and Malawians work more with their hands in the building trade, in gardens and as maids.

A friend of mine has a hotel and he employed an illegal Zimbabwean immigrant who was to look after the gardens at the hotel. In a short space of time he turned the place around. We only found out later that he has a degree in Biology and Mathematics. And in his free time when he wasn't in the garden he was helping white high school kids (who he met at the gym) in the afternoons with extra maths classes at no cost.

A few years ago, I happened to meet a man who had recently immigrated from Ireland. We met at a party, and got to talking--turns out he'd nearly been arrested for assault within weeks of his citizenship being finalized, due to punching out a black American guy at a bar who was going on about how much he hated the USA. :rotfl I say "nearly" because, according to this Irishman's story, the police officer who responded to investigate the scene empathized with his patriotic attitude and his explanation that barfights weren't considered a serious offense where he came from. In the end, he was let go with a warning. :D

''According to the international bibliography, Poland has been one of the Central and Eastern European areas with the largest migratory outflows for over a century. Of course Greece has never been one of the main destinations for Polish immigrants, however Polish immigrants are among the ten largest immigrant groups, in terms of population size, residing in the country. In addition, the Polish community is one of the oldest and, according to many, one of the best organized migratory groups in
Greece. In fact, the Poles are the only migrant group from a former socialist country that had a pre 1989 presence in Greece, despite the geographical distance between Poland and Greece and the lack of prior historical, cultural, religious, economic ties, or ties of any other type between the two countries.Moreover, despite the fact that employment of women in privet households is quite widespread in Greece, Polish migration to Greece appears not to be ‘gendered’, or at least, appears not to be as ‘gendered’ as Polish migration to other countries such as Italy.
Furthermore, the motivation for migrating for the Polish economic migrants
are more related to the desire for improving their living and working conditions and less to unemployment or high cost of living in relation to wages.''

No, no one considers them portuguese. The same way the english don't consider americans to be english or the spanish don't consider colombians to be spanish either. Those countries stopped being Portugal a long time ago. And besides all africans who arrive speak with a foreign accent that most of the times it's difficult to understand.

Maybe you want to say "any native european who agrees with zionism is welcomed in US".
Obama did good things for US but he is jewized in every corner of his soul....So he also did plenty of bad things for US including sending special troops to beat the peaceful protesters against the jewized elite of Wall Street....
Israel never received so much money as they received since mr Obama is president nor they were allowed to do whatever they please,as they are allowed now,with the unfair embargo they imposed on Iran or about the exiling of africans and asians from Israel.
I mean is first time when Israel is attacking some turkish civilians this is how much nerve got Israel now because how shameless is mr. Obama in his support for zionism...
I am feeling sick when I hear as one of the main priorities of mr. Obama "an ironclad security for Israel".
I actually think mr. Obama is african jew cause I do not understand otherwise why is he supporting so strong Israel or why he was promoted as president of US while being nigger.
Enjoy:

And this:
http://www.timesofisrael.com/obama-the-jewish-president/

As usual, I have no idea what you're attempting to communicate.

Obama is beholden to Israel--or, more specifically, the American-Israeli Political Action Committee--this is true. AIPAC is a huge player in American politics, but make no mistake: McCain would have been doing the exact same things, so I'm not sure what your point is.

Obama may be an Israel-firster, but that doesn't set him apart from his recent predecessors. What sets him apart is his appalling mismanagement of our economy. For example, by the time that less than half of his term had passed, he had already gotten the US further into debt than every single president before him combined. Furthermore, having a black president is extremely embarrassing. Before Obama took office, I had never been ashamed to call myself an American; but part of me is now.

I don't have a definitive answer to this question. As is par for the course being an American and immersed in the concept of changing one's own life if one is unhappy with it....I respect all immigrants who come here with a real work ethic and the willingness to work as hard as they will need to in order to improve their circumstances.

I have no respect for people entering my country or any other country and demanding that all their needs get met. Most of our ancestors who came here at the time of Ellis Island and before (all my ancestors came before this place was ever open to the public) came with nothing. They worked very hard to improve their own lot....and the lots of their descendants:)

Any immigrant group that works their ass off to get what they want rather than expected it handed to them.

I especially dislike how they believe if they live in their new country they should automatically get the benefits of a citizen and be piggy-backed to success. Many have some idealized view that people, in the United-States for example, have things handed to them, and think they could have some of it as well. Nothing is further from the truth though. The best immigrants, historically, earned and worked for what they have. They built towns, cities, communities. They built roads. They worked in steel mills, coal mines, etc. They farmed and raised their families solely on what they grew, making some money here and there by selling their products.

The most european-descent ones (argentinians, uruguayans, some cubans) are like us, but the most indian/mestizo ones (ecuatorian, peruvian, some colombian) keep themselves aloof from us and tend to make ghettos. In big cities young latin people cause quite problems, even murders.
Btw, they call themselves "latins" in opposition to us :D It's funny that we are doing the same, now in Madrid, for exemple, spanish people call them "latinos" too.
A thing that I don't like is that other europeans take them for spaniards, as some half-blind romanian around here. :p

I like the Somali's because they have manners, they are friendly and are not work-shy.

If someone would describe the Somalis in Finland in that way everyone would think that person's cracking a joke. :eek:


Maybe their attitude depends on the country in which they settle. In Europe they become part of the system and go onto welfare. South Africa is not a welfare state and they have no choice other than to get their hands dirty.

I think you have a point there. It's the laziest ones who come to the welfare states in Europe.

As usual, I have no idea what you're attempting to communicate.

Obama is beholden to Israel--or, more specifically, the American-Israeli Political Action Committee--this is true. AIPAC is a huge player in American politics, but make no mistake: McCain would have been doing the exact same things, so I'm not sure what your point is.

Obama may be an Israel-firster, but that doesn't set him apart from his recent predecessors. What sets him apart is his appalling mismanagement of our economy. For example, by the time that less than half of his term had passed, he had already gotten the US further into debt than every single president before him combined. Furthermore, having a black president is extremely embarrassing. Before Obama took office, I had never been ashamed to call myself an American; but part of me is now.

How do you know that Obama is not having african jewish ancestry?
You are not aware that are african jews?
I think is pretty clear what I want to communicate that mr. Obama is very ardent supporter of zionism and that US in general is a supporter of zionism.
And if some european does not agree with zionism she/he will not be welcomed to US.
I think that in fact US is most zionist state with a majority of caucasian population.
You want to say that in US people that disagree with zionism and unmask true things about humanitarian absuses of zionism and also unmask true things about how unhuman current day judaism is will not get discriminated for that?
Is not like that in US you can go to jail if you say you do not think 6 million jews were killed in Holocaust,right...Lol.

Of course I'm aware of Ethiopian Jews and related groups. It seems you aren't aware, however, of the fact that the largest group of African Jews in existence numbers barely over 100,000. This, combined with the utter dearth of evidence for your claim, makes your Obama the African Jew scenario unlikely to say the least.

I've already agreed that the likes of AIPAC play a significant role in American politics, but Zionist thought hardly has the death grip over the American population that you seem to think it does. Sure, there are some Americans, especially those in the Bible Belt, who believe that the Jews are God's chosen people, and this worldview does influence their political sympathies.

Still, I would argue that the aforementioned group is thoroughly outnumbered by mainstream liberals in the USA, who tend to reduce the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to yet another overly simplistic case of Evil White Oppressor™ versus Poor Helpless Brown People™.

My favorite immigrant group would be expats from other Western European countries, they tend to be interesting people with stories to tell.

Other than that, I tend to agree with Pallantides that the Chileans are the most sympathetic Latin American group.

Somalis are much the same in Sweden. They are a race who consider menial labor to be a sign of inferiority, so almost all of them strive to be welfare kings who do not have to work for a living. In the Somali-Arab-Semite worldview, there is no such thing as "work ethic" and having others work for you is a sign of social superiority. This is why Bantu negroes do most of the menial labor in Somalia (which is a smoldering wasteland, due to the Somalis not wanting to rebuild it), and why entire clans of Somalis move like a heliotropic plague to Northern Europe where they breed like germs.

There isn't a more patriotic group of immigrants than those from Cuba, especially those who arrived here in the 1960s. They truly love this country.

Yeah because the CIA bankrolled them and needed them to help draw up plans for an invasion of Cuba; which thankfully Kennedy refused to support in any significant way.

Most of those people that got out before Castro came to power were hard-core Bastistianos and upper-class landowners who were like Robin Hood in reverse and opened up Cuba's agricultural industry to privatisation by American corporate giants.
Fulgencio Batista was just another Latin-American dictator brought to power by the US responsible for the deaths of 20,000-40,000 Cubans.

Cuban-Americans are incredibly brainwashed.

"I believe that there is no country in the world including any and all the countries under colonial domination, where economic colonization, humiliation and exploitation were worse than in Cuba, in part owing to my country's policies during the Batista regime. I approved the proclamation which Fidel Castro made in the Sierra Maestra, when he justifiably called for justice and especially yearned to rid Cuba of corruption. I will even go further: to some extent it is as though Batista was the incarnation of a number of sins on the part of the United States. Now we shall have to pay for those sins. In the matter of the Batista regime, I am in agreement with the first Cuban revolutionaries. That is perfectly clear."

— U.S. President John F. Kennedy, to Jean Daniel, October 24, 1963

There's a huge anti-Polish sentiment in the UK, but if the Poles go, so will 99% of our prostitutes. It's a tough one.
