| Quote: G1 "That's right, nothing at all wrong with that word is there.......... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coloured
The word when applied to a human being been used in the context of a put-down -to imply someone is lower than a white, hence it's offensive. PC brigade or not you could respect this.

Quote: wigan pie man "thats a word the PC brigade outlawed, wrongfully imo, but we are all entitled to opinions.
i agree with outlawing some words that describe black (can i say that?) skinned people, but not coloured.
coloured covers the entire population of the world.....we are all coloured, some brown, some white, some yellow, some black.....so hows it offensive?
'"
"PC Brigade" is the last refuge of those who long for the days when you could use a variety of terms I won't post on here but prefix it with "No offence mate", as if that made it alright. Jim Davidson and his hilarious invention "Chalky" might be what makes you giggle, but the nasty PC Brigade put a stop to all that.
For your information (and f*** you seem to need some input from somewhere), "Coloured" was an official term used in Apartheid South Africa. It described anyone who was mixed race or of Asian ethnic descent (and maybe a few others I can't recall), as opposed to Black and White. It signified someone with less rights than a White.

We agree here. Shame, because he can tell a joke better than most.

south africa was different to america.
whites ruled and everyone else was inferior.
but they still called blacks black, more so in rhodesia (zimbabwe)
remember smiths ? speech.........."there will be no BLACK majority rule in my lifetime"
BLACK he sais, not coloured, ....now that is offensive.
going this time

Shouldn't the offended decide what's offensive, not the offender?

| Quote: G1 "does find the term offensive?
I wasn't around in the days of segregation but I have enough nous to appreciate why a term you bandy about so freely and vehemently defend would be offensive to anyone who was around and was the victim of it. Can you not see the racist connotations in the word from the images I have provided?
Are you[i really[/i that stupid?'"
know what i find offensive.......and the pc brigade invented it?
those forms you fill in that have boxes for ethnic background
dont tell me anyone agrees with that.....segregation again of the worst kind imo.
now stop freekin getting me involved r i'll miss the minutes silence......and no snidey remarks please, because this is where i came in i think

'" You should march. Get some of your "colored" friends to join you.
Now get yourself off to that match and enjoy. Let's hope your lads run rings round Cudjoe and Lawrence to top the night off for you.
