Again, I have already provided you with the definition of "native" I am using
HEREJust replace the terms "a region"/"a particular place" with "Britain"/"Holland"/Europe or whatever and you either fulfil that definition or you don't. Do you or don't you? Again. I am not going to give you the answer that you want from me of "skin color" - no matter how many MORE times you ask the question falsely claiming that I have not answered it.
I SAID ex-Muslim people of immigrant origin have a debt of gratitude to the wider
NATIVE non-Muslim society of which I am a part that gave them the space to leave Islam in relative safety -which they WOULD NOT HAVE HAD if they had still been living in Egypt or Pakistan. Former UK Conservative Party leader understood the concept perfectly when he stated:
"My grandmother was one of those killed in the concentration camps. If it hadn't been for Winston Churchill and IF IT HADN'T BEEN FOR BRITAIN I would have been one of them too. That's why, when I say I OWE EVERYTHING I AM TO THIS COUNTRY, I really do mean it. I OWE my life to it."Now what does howard mean by "BRITAIN"? The geographical landmass? Hardly. He means the INDIGENOUS BRITISH SOCIETY that provided him with refuge from the Nazis.
So, wide-reaching definitions and sweeping generalisations aside, and assuming you’re not actually just an ignorant motherfucker with a huge chip on your shoulder about immigration and an unwarranted sense of entitlement and self-importance, I’m gonna go ahead and assume by Native American, you mean the largely untouched North American tribes that were around before the colonials nearly wiped them out - the diverse people, not actually a single race to anyone with actual interest in their intricate and rich history beyond a few John Wayne movies, literally thousands of different languages and many distinct cultures, the Maya, Inuit, ancient Hawaiians amongst them, and the hundreds of uncategorized aboriginal tribes… we can apply the same line of reasoning to this elusive ‘Native Briton’ creature, yeah?
So lets start with you. Which of these Native British tribes do you most identify with?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ancient/british_prehistory/iron_01.shtmlI tell you what, scrap that. Its unreasonable of me to expect you to know that off the top of your head. Even though you have obviously traced your family tree that far back and clearly know all about history and population genetics, I don’t suppose you have the information handy right now anyway so I wont ask.
So instead of that, lets be more reasonable and move on to a more relevant timeframe in the history of the British Isles. I’ll make it easy for you and even do the work for you, since you're so shy and modest about your expertise: -
Would you say this is a fair description of a Native Briton:
The indigenous British ethnic groups deriving from the class of Indigenous Caucasian, consisting of Anglo-Saxon, Celtic-Scottish, Scots-Northern Irish, Celtic-Welsh, Celtic- Irish, Celtic-Cornish, Anglo-Saxon-Celtic, Celtic-Norse, Anglo-Saxon-Norse, Anglo-Saxon-Indigenous European, and members of these ethnic groups who reside either within or outside Europe but ethnically derive from them.
