That's not what happened though and that hypothetical situation doesn't make what Gazza did any less stupid. We shouldn't get in trouble if they don't is a bit out of the school yard textbook.
I totally agree Comm.. racism against white people is largely unrecognised as a problem, which does gets on mine and I would imagine many other peoples goats..
I have had racist comments against me from black people, and I know people who have reported incidents to the police and been laughed at. I have also witnessed a group of Asians lads attack one white lad with sticks.They were caught by the police and no action was taken against them. I hate racism from any quarter, but it needs to be recognised that it can go both ways.
As I said above racism is racism and it's no good. In the grand scheme of things we're lucky that we don't get it as much as other races, in other places.
Or perhaps that it is not recognised it goes unnoticed..For example, many police forces in the UK practice what they call positive racism, which in reality means that white males get overlooked for jobs and promotions even if they are the best qualified..
Open a bag of worms MrRAW. I like it and totally agree. Heres one. Disco may not like this. I live in a country where a vast majority of the population would still refer to a black man as a chocolate man. Try telling them its wrong.
Yeah positive discrimination. A ****er of a thing but again... If that's the worst we have to complain about we can consider ourselves pretty lucky.
I couldn't care less what Thai people refer to black people as. They're Thai and clearly a little further back down the track than we are as a society. In Sudan, men have been known to bum goats on their way home from a night on the drink. That's all well and good for them but it doesn't mean some **** in Huddersfield should be hopping a farmers fence after a night in Yates'.
So what are you saying, only the white man can be racist and be comndemed for it because they are not from a civilised country? Your honeymoon was in Thailand and now you live in Oz. A country with a massive racial problem for years.
No. As I've said a few times now, racism is racism and racism is bad. Regardless of which race is doing it to which. There should be zero tolerance towards it so it's not allowed to grow. A time to put broken window theory in practice if you ask me. But when I see people grumbling about the woe of us white blokes it just makes me laugh. I got spat on by a Pakistani kid when I was younger. I'll live. Races and cultures have been systematically wiped off the face of the earth for no other reason than racism. That's something to worry about. Not the fact that we can't get away with saying go whatever the latest complaint is. X can say this and get away with it... But Y would get into trouble for saying something similar... Boohoo. If you want to say something, say it but be mindful of the consequences and the fact that "but he said..." Isn't a get out of jail free card.
You got spat at by a Paki(stani). Did you make a song and dance about it? Im guessing not. Thats my point.
And there we have it. Sadly today the story would be news in the papers. Not in a good way. See my point?
It's called positive discrimination, or affirmative action. I've had hundreds of people sit in front of me interviewing for several jobs and I've always given the job to the most qualified candidate with the biggest tits.
Top two buttons undone. Its game over if they are lookers. Fickle. Shallow people. Yes. ****ing right i am.
