    British humour

    It has been announced that the police are going to be allowed to use
    water cannons on rioters. They are putting some Persil in to stop the
    coloureds running.

    Two Muslims have crashed a speedboat into the Thames barrier in
    London. Police think it might be the start of Ram-a-dam.

    Following the riots in Tottenham, it's important to remind ourselves
    that not all black people are stereotypical thieves and arsonists. The
    vast majority are drug dealers and rapists.

    Ngogo Mwambi has to travel 5 miles every day for fresh water, 7 miles
    every day for food & 10 miles every day for medicine for him & his
    family. This is because the daft bastard and all his mates torched the
    Peckham Spar, Tottenham KFC and Hackney Medical Centre and now he has
    to walk to Shoreditch for his breakfast.

    Riots in Wythenshawe last month caused over Ł1 million worth of improvements

    Muslims have gone on the rampage in Bradford, killing anyone who's
    English. Police fear the death toll could be as high as 5.

    Sat opposite an Indian lady on the train today, she shut her eyes and
    stopped breathing. I thought she was dead, until I saw the red spot on
    her forehead and realised she was just on standby.

    They've had to cancel the panto 'Jack & the Beanstalk' in Birmingham,
    Bristol , Oldham, Bradford, Burnley, Leicester, Luton and London :
    Apparently the giant couldn't smell any Englishmen.

    Years ago it was suggested that, "An apple a day keeps the doctor
    away." But since all the doctors are now Muslim, I've found that a
    bacon sandwich works a treat!

    Intelligence Study Links Low I.Q. To Prejudice, Racism, Conservatism

    Are racists dumb? Do conservatives tend to be less intelligent than liberals? A provocative new study from Brock University in Ontario suggests the answer to both questions may be a qualified yes.

    The study, published in Psychological Science, showed that people who score low on I.Q. tests in childhood are more likely to develop prejudiced beliefs and socially conservative politics in adulthood.

    I.Q., or intelligence quotient, is a score determined by standardized tests, but whether the tests truly reveal intelligence remains a topic of hot debate among psychologists.

    Dr. Gordon Hodson, a professor of psychology at the university and the study's lead author, said the finding represented evidence of a vicious cycle: People of low intelligence gravitate toward socially conservative ideologies, which stress resistance to change and, in turn, prejudice, he told LiveScience.

    Why might less intelligent people be drawn to conservative ideologies? Because such ideologies feature "structure and order" that make it easier to comprehend a complicated world, Dodson said. "Unfortunately, many of these features can also contribute to prejudice," he added.

    Dr. Brian Nosek, a University of Virginia psychologist, echoed those sentiments.

    "Reality is complicated and messy," he told The Huffington Post in an email. "Ideologies get rid of the messiness and impose a simpler solution. So, it may not be surprising that people with less cognitive capacity will be attracted to simplifying ideologies."


    But Nosek said less intelligent types might be attracted to liberal "simplifying ideologies" as well as conservative ones.

    In any case, the study has taken the Internet by storm, with some outspoken liberals saying that it validates their suspicions about conservatives and conservatives arguing that the research has been misinterpreted.

    Inexplicably, common decency and fairness is often confused with political correctness.

    But I still love ya, Happy.

    I'll have to respectfully disagree with you there normie.

    It's bigotry disguised as humour, and that is much worse than your standard bigotry and racism because it attempts to legitimise it as being 'normal' and acceptable.

    People who wouldn't normally make a racist comment feel free to do so and worse those who are the target of such comments are expected to ignore the insult and are then accused of having no sense of humour when the object.
