That's clearly an obtuse question to ask.
You don't have to go to Iraq to see Baghdad just go to Alum Rock.
I used to love the Birmingham run. Trucks are allowed just about everywhere and all the numpties are up there on t'motorway.. Out of the chuffing way.
Cafes just about everywhere as well and some awesome guitar/music shops too.
( I used to deliver to the indoor markets at pershore st and the Bullring (underneath it actually))

I'm guessing you live in a posh white area, perhaps with one or two of the better behaved and wealthier ethnics for company but no more.
To be honest most 'ethnics' are better behaved than a serial drink driver who spends all day salivating over questionable porn. I know who I'd rather live next door to.

Considering you cant actually get a passport to say you're English and if I lived in India all my life I would not be Asian. Then I think i makes sense that they are not english.
Not even if the person/people in question were born in England?
i went brummy before chrimbo for a gig, had a couple of hours spare before and so did a bit of shopping in bullring etc.
wow. we have never felt so intimidated! many a street on the way in we were literally the only white caucasions! mosques every direction (i swear one they literally chucked the big dome jobby on top of a church
), asians walking out in front of you as they cross the road etc, total lack of respect and generally quite rude.
made us quite angry tbh, seriously screw living in a city these days!
partly why i voted BNP last night

Good guess!
Except you're completely wrong.
I live in a working class white area with chavs next door and a greasy chip shop at the bottom of the road. The "ethnics" in my neighbourhood consist of the Asians who run the greasy chip shop, the Asians who run the spa, the Asians who run the local takeaways, the Asians who run the post office, the Asians who run the corner shop at the other end of the road, and assorted random Asians who can't afford to live anywhere nicer.
Genuine pic from Birmigham...
Thats got to be Small heath or Alum rock
It used to be so nice up Alum rock wtf happend..
Could also be Sparkbrook or Sparkhill.
Not that it proves anything, of course. Point the camera towards a different suburb and you won't see a single brown face.

You know why they made the motorway bypass? So no-one has to have the dis-pleasure of looking at birmingham whilst travelling past
I find Birmingham to have the least friendly/conscientious people of any city I've been to, and I'm moving there soon
any particular reason ???
Why does it matter if they're Asian or not? They're still people. Aren't white people capable of making you feel intimidated? Do you ever think that the reason that you're scared is your prejudice and irrational fear, rather than the fact they're Asian/Black?

Im not going to get into that, because that comes under the british card as to where you citizenship lies, or in the UK's case your position as a subject.
I think the point he was making was about the origin, where English is Anglo Saxon type of model of a human. I was simply agreeing with him as a) I did b) I didnt like the reply.
I know both these places well, and yes they have gone downhill. Is this due to the influx of the Asian community? Remember, correlation is not the same as causation.
