Yes, are all those racists as devious and lacking in intellectual integrity as to flee the debate and start new threads regurgitating arguments just demolished in the old thread? B^p
If you wanted to be taken seriously you would post citations to the study.
What has 'race' got to do with it? Are you claiming there is some genetic pre-disposition? Or it's caused by skin pigment? B^p
What are the 'racial' factors at work?
Is there a difference in tobacco addiction among wealthy and poor Indonesians?
Between elite and working clbutt Australians?
Between males and females? Teenages and adults?
Are they all examples of 'races' (no one can tell, you never provide any workable definition B^p )
More likely it correlates to economic and social factors, like gambling at the pokies does.
You really are weak.

"There is a fundamental distinction between multicultural and Multiculturalism, which racists constantly and deliberately confuse.
A society is multicultural if it has more than one culture being practised within that society.
'Multicultural - A society which embraces a number of minority cultures' - Macquarie Dictionary
Multiculturalism is two things, the -ISM indicates that it is a set of beliefs or ideas about multiculture, ie a recognition of multicultural REALITY, an acceptance of it, a celebration of it. But it is ALSO a set of government policies to formalize that recognition, acceptance and celebration! Thus the Howard government has a Department which documents the positive economic social and foreign policy benefits from having a successful, open, democratic multicultural society."
