    its the knee jerk response that follows from many on here if you don't immediately denounce what they perceive to be racist/sexist/bigotry.

    Q What do you call a Welshman with a stick up his arse?

    A Taffy apple

    You may think that's racist, I can't see how it could be.

        that everyone should be up in arms about this guy saying that a football player had fat tits, or that we all shouldn't have been bothered when we all thought it was overt racism?

        you either want this guy banned from the club for fat titism, or are happy to see people make racist gestures?
        i do feel there are shades of grey inbetween the black and white you portray.

        what is being said is that many on here are hypocritical calling for a fan to be banned for abusing one demographic but then passing off the same abuse as high jinks when its shown to have been targeting another altogether demographic.

            How the **** is it hypocritical for thinking someone should be banned for being racist but not for saying something about a man's fat tits

                The response to your faux pas regarding the turban song was lengthened not by people joining the fray but by your ridiculous ego not accepting that you were stupid and insensitive to try and say what's racist about that song ? You were enlightened as to why it was racist but still spent a day squirming your way around .

                You didnt perceive the song to be racist but it is .

                      I’m partial to a fat tit, not on a Hull City player I might add though. If it’s two fat tits I’m in

                        It isn't, but some have taken umbrage with it.

                          Back to the turban song...as always you just want to shout down whoever you think is wrong (in this case the racist) without asking them to explain their thought processes.

                          Why not ask the question why the song isn't racist and see if that can be answered? Why not try to get them to think rather than adopt an entrenched position in which they think its now a legitimate battle.

                          If you're going to persuade people their actions or thinking are wrong, you do that by selling your idea, not forcing it upon them

                          Think the wind and the sun in aesops fable. Read about Daryl Davies and how his approach to fighting racism (and other forms of bigotry) achieves stellar results.

                          Edit: the lord lieutenant of London called it right regarding tackling racism. Some people use words that are clearly benign in intention but are labelled racists. It stifles any kind of discussion or debate

                            Ignorant of what, it's no more than a play on words

                              People take umbrage with lots of things it shouldn’t be used to weaken the arguments against things that deserve it though
