[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 4215961, member: 25419"] I’ll be the bad guy. Yes, those laws are racist and ethnocentric. There was a belief that Western Europeans created a society and a Republic worth emulating. The folks that wrote those laws felt like it was worth preserving, and the way to do that is to maintain a population with similar characteristics. Apparently there was something to that Western Civilization thing, because every poor soul seeking to better their station in life wanted to take part in it. Once that common background has been sufficiently diluted, the whole begins to reflect the incoming participants’ culture more and more. So, we are in the process of becoming the culture that those people fled. Not too hard to do the math on that. [/QUOTE]
