I doubt Greece has our social safety net, also, in the beginning of the story it said police are afraid and rarely enter that area... where as the cops here don't fear the DTES at all...

Seriously though, Europe's socialism is based on very limited immigration. People often cite the Scandinavian countries for their quality of life, yet fail to realize tight immigration keeps that lifestyle possible, cause with their economy is basically self-sufficient (aka stagnant) so it doesn't depend on immigration for growth as our economy does.

			So one neighbourhood in Athens is overpopulated with illegal immigrants and poverty striken, so the whole country is worse than the downtown eastside?  I was in Greece last year, and barring some shitty neighbourhoods in the capital, it was one of the most beautiful countries i've been to...and i've been to a lot.  
Jason your thread titles make Fox News sound like Reuters.  And your Conservative/Liberal duplicity is a second rate Stephen Colbert.  
Oh boy, can't wait for MajinHurricaine to chime in on this thread    
p.s. As part of the EU, Greece has to have minimum social safety net standards required of similar social democratic nations.  Get a clue.

Most european countries are extremely racist, especially the meditteranean countries because theres large influxes of legal and illegal immigrants especially to greece and italy  
and since their economies aren't in good shape the hate just increases   
there's openly racist political parties in a lot of the countries there that get a high percentage of votes too

			Looking from here, with our liberal views and whatnot, it might seem racist. They're just trying to deal with a problem caused largely by people of one specific race. If they were all white illegals, it would be ok right?
