Look at Bosnia, for exemple.
I for one will not consider any of these advisories in my trip planning. So far, what I have seen is pure BS. The countries that I am staying away from right now are the US and Britain. Razz


I don't listen to the US travel advisories either as a lot of it is political. There are places in the States that I certainly wouldn't want to visit.

What I love about Russian skinheads is stuff like this(taken from link posted):

Quote:
Another massive fight took place in the Moscow metro on Sunday night. A group of Russian skinheads attacked two young Caucasian men on the Belorusskaya metro station at about 11:10 p.m. Potential victims showed a surprisingly powerful resistance: they would have won the fight but the police put an end to the scuffle.

Several young men of Slavic looks came up to two nationals of the Caucasus and attempted to beat them. It was not reported what kind of weapon the assaulters had, although the Caucasians pulled out knives and used them for their own defense. Four skinheads were wounded as a result of the fight. The men were hospitalized to Sklifosofsky Institute with stab wounds, the Moscow ER Center said. The police also detained all other members of the fight.


A group of Russian skinheads getting the crap kicked out of them by only 2 young Caucasian men..

Lots more reports of this happening in Russia, believe me.. Russian skinheads are nothing.

But Caucasian men and women experience a lot of hateful attacks - both phsysical and verbal - by the orodinary Russians every day. There's a profound hate for those who look like they came from the Caucasus. It goes beyond the problem with a relatively small number of young haters.

This view is thesame as when America viewed Communism in Russia Rolling Eyes

American culture is way more violet, and Russia has an excuse for having these Skinheads whilst America has created their own problem...

Why is it that everytime you have to make this point which is actually a complete lie?

It's only you and your paranoid friends in Russia who are like this and we all know the Russian Mafia come from the Caucasus and have your queer skinheads running like chickens.

Even the skinheads say the reason they want to attack Caucasians is because Russian women like them more. Look(quote from link):

Quote:
A 19-year-old friend of Mr. Kazantsef said part of his reason for joining the skinheads involved the sexual politics of sharing the city with newcomers.

"I was rejected by three different girls because they preferred foreign guys," said the tall teenager with ugly scars on his shaven head.

"They said to me, 'Those guys are better because they have nice cars, earn more money, and they're nicer than Russians.' "



Why can't you just get over the fact that even your own women prefer a Caucasian man, and as for Caucasian women, well, they'd rather commit suicide than sleep with Russian men.

Get over it.

A Caucasian woman, when faced with the prospect of having to
sleep with Russian men:




And to think, almost the entire world sympathizes with this woman.

Slavs are naturally anti-anyone other ethnicity thats why the are so pure, and all the Illegal Immigrants and non-ethnic Russians makes ethnic Russians angry because they just come and expect us to bend to their wayy and culture, and this has affected the new generation which has taken a strong stance against this.

I cannot understand how slav could be so "pure", I remind you Russia and a big part of eastern Europe was under Mongolian domination for centuries.

That's right, mister-wizzz,

Slavs are not pure. Slavs are Muslims mixed with Mongols mixed with Europeans.

Plus Slavs are slaves to others. Look at Stalin, he had all the Slavs running around and even today Slavs still worship him.


Slavs are just hurting themselves. The amount of stories I've heard about Slavs trying to give attitude to Caucasians, only for the Caucasian to turn around and beat them(sometimes to death) is very high. This is the reality. Slavs with proud attitudes are beaten even in their own country, and the new generation can complain all they want.

It doesn't take away from the fact that Slavs are nothing but roaming Europeans, Iranians, Mongols, Turks, and are about as pure as 20 breed of dogs mongrolized into one.

I spit on Slavic pride.

Xela, you are a fine 17 yo guy. But then, you say something like this and it lowers you down to a preteen age.

I understand slavic people spit at you before you immigrated to the UK but do you need to retaliate this way? Unlike...

Also there are more skin heads in the U.S. Look at our prison system and you will see and learn as to why we have the Aryan nation.

vitalsigns,

Skinheads in the UK are not violent, do not worship Hitler, and generally follow no agenda.

If a Slavic person ever spat at me, the next time he spat, it would be his teeth. That is in either Russia or the UK, although in the UK I think I'd make it far more serious.

So once again, I spit on Slavic pride.

It doesnt matter if there are 3x's as many skinheads in the US. There's no other place in the world where skinheads attack with such violence and frequency than in Russia. But that's why it keeps happening, because the Russian citizens and people like you keep denying that the problem even exist.

Keep living in denile, and keep trying to transfer the blame onto the UK and US... becuase they have the "real" problem Rolling Eyes since they have more skinheads and more racist attacks.
