Indeed he is, but I wouldn't be too shocked if he had a lawyers letter dropping on his doormat soon. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
They were scoring easily tonight, but I reckon if you sit deep first half you could frustrate them and catch them on the break. Good luck. I'll keep my eye out for Chazz's MDT Germany 0 Ernie 1 is my prediction
Given the all important question you pose in the title of the thread 'Am I racist'? I'm extremely surprised that the question hasn't been asked...Well are you? Or do you consider yourself so? My opinion,for what it's worth,is that you've used a word that is taboo in society these days and is deemed as offensive to Pakistanis.
Not quite true. I’ve lived here for almost 9 years now, and not long after I arrived I remember seeing a news report about the aussies smashing the pakis in a cricket game. It’s not a term that’s used much at all so it doesn’t have any racial connotations to the vast majority of the population. It wasn’t used with malice and was a genuine shortening of the name Pakistan. However the use of the word in the UK is undoubtedly racist as it’s been used in a derogatory manner for a long time and is entrenched in our culture as a racist slur. You’d have to be on a wind up, or be an idiot to think that it’s not racist.
Don’t know about Pakistanis but there’s a decently-sized community of people of Indian and Iranian heritage in East Africa. Freddie Mercury’s family being an example. Indo-Iranians in Africa are some of the last surviving Zoroastrians in the world.
