    Medicine eh? You'll need to look up where the backbone is considering you lack one. You shouldn't have a problem with the female reproductive system, considering you are a great big pussy.

    Lest we forget, that Webs specialises in being offended and "fighting against bigotry and racism" ONLY when it concerns, Rangers fans or the Unionist community in Northern Ireland.

    He only recognises laws that he agrees with.

    He only quotes organisations when it suits his bigotry.

    If 50,000 Rangers fans sing that Neil Lennon is a "Sad Fenian Bastard" then that is sectarian.

    yet

    If 60,000 Celtic fans sing that Walter Smith is a "Sad Orange Bastard" then that is not sectarian.

    Rangers fans are racist according to Webs, and Celtic DO NOT have a problem with racists, yet in the past 2 months or so, a Celtic fan has admitted posting racist remarks on Facebook after being charged, and that a Celtic fan has been convicted of making racist remarks to likeable Senaglese frontman El Hadji Diouf.

    If Rebel was genuine in his campaign to eliminate racism and sectarianism, he'd need to take his head out of his tribal-esque Republicanism Celtic mindedness state of mind.

    Unfortunately, for NI at least, whilst guys like Rebel exist on both sides of the community, they'll never gain a true peace.

    Perhaps that is Rebels real goal though?

    So am I a "hun"?

    What is a "hun" anyway and does the football team I support determine whether I am one or not?

    If Commando comics taught me anything it's that "the hun" were the Germans. They also taught me "schnell" means fast and "verboten" means forbidden but that's a bit off topic.

    Anyway, some clarification please?

    why would you wish to revisit an argument you have lost so many many times?

    I'm struggling to see how your use of the word 'Hun' matches any of the definitions in your link. You clearly mean something else by it. Would you care to explain what it is?

    So you agree the word is not as yet sectarian?

    No.

    That term is used as a racist term. Hun is not.
    Technically, its use is already against the law as it is an offensive term.
    It is designed to offend.....so I use it. It is not designed to be sectarian.

    Huns, like Rangers fans, were notorious for causing trouble everywhere they went hence the comparison.

    Until Medro dragged his sorry arse onto not606 it had never crossed my mind once that the word Hun was sectarian. I just used it to refer to someone who supported Rangers.

    No problem, a Rangers fan.

    So as you can see, the term fenian is both technically and legally racist......Hun.....is NOT

    You want to be offensive?

    Not very liberal of you rebel now is it?

    I thought you deplored racism and sectarianism because it offends?

    Oh right, you are only against certain types of offensive behaviour.

    You've just admitted that your use of the word 'Hun' is not the same as any of the dictionary definitions, so it's immaterial whether those uses are deemed sectarian or not. You're using the word in a derogatory and pejorative manner and as such are just a snivelling, cowardly **** who's trying to disguise his bigotry on a technicality.
