It’s the start of an arrogance which allows murders and rapists to get off free because the case doesn’t appear to be watertight or because they think it will never hold up in court. Unfortunately from my own experience discrimination in the UK is rampant and always has been. Even more worrying is the fact that discrimination is legal and there is nothing you can do about it. I know from a recent court appearance.

If there is no racism then this will be identified by the reports. I dont understand this lefty righty nonsense, these are just more labels used by those not intellectually equipped to think at the level required to make a rational non bigoted opinion

here is one from the mid 90′s. I don’t think the #’s have changed much:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Immigrant professionals are getting higher-paying jobs than native-born Americans in hospitals, universities and other institutions, as Asians outdistance whites in many professions, according to a new study. The census-based study found more foreign-born Indian doctors than native-born black doctors, with striking disparity in median salaries among racial groups. And it found significantly larger proportions of Asian and white professionals than either blacks or Hispanics… The highest paid of any foreign-born group analyzed separately is Korean doctors, who have a median income of dlrs 101,000, the report said. Indian physicians ranked second at dlrs 82,205. It said 14,000 foreign-born Asian professionals earn more than dlrs 150,000 a year from their professions.

as for the rest, well, yeah…angry ethnic leftists are the problem, particularly when they constantly blame whitey even when no provable racism exists and even when browns discriminate against whites as well.

Call me a cynic, but it’s worth noting that it’s rather “profitable” these days for certain folks to go around making loud charges about racism / discrimination / etc. (trial lawyers, ethnic activists, community leaders, etc.)

Can you point me to that info?

If Indians reject whites at a rate similar to the rate whites reject Indians, again it’s a very different story from the tiresome “whites are racist” conclusion.

Maybe it’s those angry ethnic activists leftists at work again.

I responded with skepticism because of the data presented. And, you know, I’m tired of this ‘doc’s are treated better than nurses’ thing that gets trotted out everytime. Do some docs act like jerks to some nurses? Sure they do. And shame on them for it. They should be disciplined.

Ask any new intern how they are treated by the nurses on the floor…..or as medical students. You can be nice and polite and still get your head chewed off.

As for blaming the victim: when was I doing that? Without having a proper study, how am I do judge these claims? I most certainly am not blaming the victim. To do that, I’d have to have a better idea of who the victims are.

what is the statistical evidence for discrimination? are they actually getting paid less? I know E & S Asian doctors make more money on average than whites in the US…would be surprising to see the opposite hold for Indians.

If you start out looking for “discrimination” with a low bar you’re going to find it. I want to see hard evidence of people with equivalent qualifications being turned down for jobs, with the control being white applicants to jobs governed by Indians. I want to see substantial salary discrepancies for controlled professional qualifications before I start appealing to “racism” to explain outcome differences.

And I definitely want to see how whites are treated by browns as a control. In the US, all these studies intended to find thoughtcrime among whites never have blacks as employers or Asians as employers/employees…because the prejudgment is that a) whites are the only employers and b) only whites can be racist.

If Indians reject whites at a rate similar to the rate whites reject Indians, again it’s a very different story from the tiresome “whites are racist” conclusion.
