    It's aimed at HIAG and involves all the usual suspects

    The Asian man in the casino was caught looking at his cards. I'd have called him a lot worse than Jap if he'd done the same to me <ok>

    I personally, and many around me when the topic came up at the football, didn't know that "Jap" was derogatory. Just thought it was like "Brit" or "Scot".

    Regardless, he's been to one of them culture and diversity courses, apoligised to the bloke (he accepted) and has called the whole thing his biggest regret in his book.

    Naturally I am above such pettiness, being the Bope!!

    But I don't think its aimed at HIAG, just seems that way because he ****s up the most.

    He's a pissed up racist slagging off someone that's nowhere near him.


    Saint Vardy can do no wrong. :emoticon-0131-angel

    It's run by Piskie. You've got no chance. He'll probably take the points for himself on previous experience.

    Oh, so it is about HIAG, then? That explains it.

    I never understood that either.

    Brit is short for British
    Scot is short for Scottish
    Jap is short for Japanese
    Paki is short for Pakistani

    Why are first two acceptable yet the latter two deemed racist terms? Who makes this decision?

    Yeah because that short video definitely shows all of the facts.

    The bloke was walking around the table then going back to his mate to whisper in his ear. No wonder Vardy got fed up.

    In the 70's and 80's 'Paki' even though it is half of the legitimate title, was a term used by racists towards Pakistanis..therefore the Term was deemed as offensive. There is no law that states if you take the first part of someone's title then how can it be racist. If you use it and abuse it...then it becomes offensive.
    That's why my mates can call me a Paki all they want, I know they don't mean it to hurt me. If 'Brits' was used as a derogatory term...then it would also become offensive over time.

    Do you have any evidence that this happened?
    Even if it did, which probably isn't true, that doesn't excuse his racism or attempts to start another pissed up fight.

    He's at a poker table with his missus and it looks like he's playing Texas Hold 'em.
    It would be virtually impossible to see his cards if he took even the slightest precautions.

    Have you ever addressed anyone as Brit or Scot?

    Problem with diving is determining the intention, if a player hits the deck to avoid getting hoofed in the knees by an oppo mong who's **** at tackling then I see nowt wrong with that. If they hit the deck like they've been shot just because somebody tickled their elbow then by the letter of the law there's contact so it's not a dive... it's ****ing stupid.

    Any intentional dive in the penalty area should be punishable by a volley to the grill from the player he's tried to con.

    Thats pretty gay.
    So if a racist refers to a car as a car, we are no longer able to refer to it as such?
    Why should we have to change our language because of asshats?

    I thought you were Bengali anyway? Not Pakistani!

    Yeah, I despise the term British anyway.
    But I refer to people from Scotland as the Scots.

    When I fill out forms and it says to state your nationality, British, etc or "other, please state" I choose other and write "English" <laugh>
    Just for ****s and giggles <ok>

    I think Paki is also derogatory because it's often used to label basically anybody of middle eastern origin/descent. Most often based on skin and hair colour... and brown leather sandals.

    You'll have to come up with far better bait than that before people start trawling YouTube for Hazard and co's little 'simulations'

    All us spurs fans are rightly shamed by being the first and only club having a player sent off in a cup final for being a diving twat :bandit:
