If one just scratches the surface then yes, I would have to agree admittingly, but if one looks a bit deeper, then one might find out that these kind of statements mostly come from people that value race over nationality which is completely ridiculous by itself already. (I´ll elaborate on this a bit further in a minute.)
Or even worse: they relate nationality to race. But the world is not like that (anymore). That´s why i brought up the example with the US. ´Cause if you look at it like that, then ONLY American natives can really be called Americans, at some point all the others were migrants or are their descendants. So this argumentation doesn´t make any sense at all in my eyes.
Now let me quickly get back to the ridiculousity of "races".
There is a scientific concensus that there is only ONE human race and in a way EVERYONE is related to [EVERYBODY[/B]. All the little differences between humans are related to environmental influences. Nothing else. In fact actually Orang Utans genetically could be seen as humans. The genetical differences between us are only marginal. So speaking of race in terms of humanity is completely bollocks IMHO and makes the whole discussion obsolete.
Or like Usain Bolt used to say: I don´t have any race issues. I win them!
