Quote: Call Me God "[sizeDO THEY ALLOW BLACK PEOPLE IN SWINTON[/size
Please......stop claiming that he's Not racist. He may not knowingly be a racist, but he friggin' well is....it may be because his mates are, it may be because his mummy didn't love him.....it may be because he didn't get picked for the first XV at school, but his attitude is exclusive and exclusive based on, in this case, skin colour........he didn't stumble and fall by accident, he made a comment "without thinking" and that is the true definition of character.....saying what you think and not what your expected to say....he is a racist!'"
To play devil's advocate...
If I say "Do they allow homosexuals in Saudi Arabia?" does that make me homophobic?
I've simply changed the group (which was not a discriminatory phrase) and the place.
Is the phrase used not more a slur on the people of Swinton being less progressive (not a serious one), just like the follow up one?
I think when we take the emotion out of the equation, it's actually a fascinating discussion.
