Gwent records the biggest increase in religious and racial hate crimes since Referendum

[J R Hartley]

No you're not, you were born in Britain so you are British.

You have Pakistani heritage.

If as a white person, I used the term 'us' discriminating against a non white person and calling those people 'them', it would be considered racist.

It is you calling yourself a British Pakistani, as opposed to simply calling yourself British.

It is you, in this situation and presumably as that is how you see yourself, in many other situations that is perpetuating the difference between you and others.

It is not white people in these situations who are discriminating, but you !!

[Eric Cartman]

Born in Britain and moved to the Projects after first listening to Public Enemy's Fear of a Black Planet.
He's a black man stuck in a Pakistanis body so he gets offended very easily.

Judging by this thread he doesn't.

first racist and now gender fluidist. You need to use your loaf more

[Feedback]

You use the term 'us' when talking presumably talking about being Pakistani.

perhaps 'us' means Brits whose forefathers came from the Indian subcontinent?

African American, British American, Italian American, Pakistani British

TISS, you're an intelligent poster on here and have enjoyed reading your posts on this thread and others, so will give you a response that you deserve.
I didn't say Adz was being racist, I stated that white people would be considered racist if the word us or them was used in reference to someone with a different colour skin - which is true particularly if said in politically correct confines.
I also said that that type of attitude will only perpetuate divisions in society, rather than having the utopian ideal of full integration of all people's living in the UK.

That's fair enough. I appreciate the response.

Even when I rarely disagree with you, I respect your thought out responses.
Cheers TISS.

racist how
now I think we can all agree I have not been racist and to throw a comment like that
you should be very ashamed of yourself there are ppl out there who really are the victims of racism and it is to them sir you a big apology too
shame on shame on you indeed

[I.8.POLITICAL.CORRECTNESS]

If he'd have called me that I'm 100% certain half a dozen people wouldn't have called him up on it.
I've had worse on here more than once

yeah id like to the difference too
ive had nasty comments aimed me not a dicky bird

[blue matt]

Spot on, some of us are reclaiming it tbh

so do i delete it or not ? ? ?

TH63 has reported it, as he found it offensive

Adz, has said " its being reclaimed " thus its not offensive and by deleting it would not help in the cause of reclamation of the word

As I know that Adz is of Pakistani origin ( he has told me and has mentioned in this thread he is a " British Pakistani " ) i feel his claim that it is being reclaimed must add weight to the argument on deletion of not

Oh its another of them borderline options

So calling someone an "inbread idiot" is ok, calling someone a wanker isn't.

Glad we cleared that one up anyway.

Oh lighten up Terrence. The jacks always get called inbreds and connotations to sexually infiltrating a family member on here. I dont see anyone complaining then.

Why dont you offer to help Mike and moderate the board for him instead of throwing stones at Matt all the time?

[TH63]

Who the feck is Terence?

Wasn't it a fair question? You either allow both or none surely?

Yes we call jacks inbreds but we also call them wankers.

If Mike wasn't another mod, and wanted me I'm sure he'd ask, I certainly wouldn't be so presumptuous to offer. Plus I'd probably be crap.

We are back to context again.

I think the aggression and tone of Tiger calling Matt a "Wanker" was out of order and deserved to be pulled.

Matt has a thankless task trying to moderate this forum and getting called a "Wanker" just because somone disagreed with his moderating was uncalled for. It wasnt Matt who put the picture up.
