Apexx there IS guesswork in those figures..
You assume them to be fact..
And even though a census doesent cover skin pigment (which inevidibly means they are assuming peoples color based on the part of the world they are from, which = guesswork).. And a cencus hasnt been carried out for looooong before feb 06..
What your saying has no real backing.. The other exists as part of the 92% white residents as a margin of error that you so convieniently fail to take into consideration..
Say what you like. But your not gonna win this argument.

You obviously don't know how a census works. They don't guess your race, you TELL them your race. The numbers aren't guesses, they're figures accumulated from accounted-for people.
But now you're telling me that the census is wrong, and you're right.
Once again, whered this "AND OTHER" come from that you said didn't exist. And where do black people factor into an equasion goes exactly liek this, if according to you...the census forgot to mention black people
92% white
+7% asian and/or middle eastern
+1% Aboriginal/"other"
--------------------
= 100%
If other isn't inclusive of black people, where does black people factor in on this? Under middle eastern/asian? Oh wait....yeah...you're right...under whites....
Oh no, you were saying there's a percentage missing and that percentage is the black statistic. What "magically missing" percentage is that on top of this 100%?
