Shiro doesn't deny that there are attacks against turks. He even doesn't deny that turks are often recognised as such. But this is not because of their skin clour, but more because of their social behaviour, accent and cultural background. Skin colour doesn't play a role here. In fact, I don't know any german who even thought about if turks are "white" or not.


BTW: Today the german statistics bureau presented fresh stats:

15,3 million people in Germany have a migration background. That is 18,6% of Germany's total population. 8 million of them have german citizenship. 96% of these 15,3 million live in West Germany and Berlin.
62% of these people have their roots in Europe (this stats included Turkey).
From all people with migration background have the following % the roots in:
Turkey 14,2%
Russia 9,4%
Poland 6,9%
Italy 4,2%
Romania 3%
Serbia and Montenegro 3% (stats were collected before the country split-up)
Bosnia-Herzegovina 2,3%
Greece 2,2%
