Of course racism still exists here, find me a place where it doesn't. But here in England we're not half as bad as what we used to be even 20 years ago. We've become a multicultural society and especially with football racism wasn't the issue it was back then.

In general though we're much better now than we've ever been. We're long past the days of the political incorrectness of Love thy Neighbour and even some of the lines Del Boy spurts out in the very old Only Fools and Horses episodes. One particular line springs to mind which would never be used in that context again on TV: On discussing the devastation of a nuclear war and surviving it in a bomb shelter, Rodney explains there'd be no point in living withing nothing to eat. Del Boy's quick quip was something along the lines of: "There'd still be a paki shop on the corner somewhere".
You speak a lot of politically correct rubbish Turi,

"There'd still be a paki shop on the corner somewhere"

Is hardly a 'racist' statement, for starters, the word 'paki' is merely an abbrievitaion of pakistani, and racism is as bad as it has ever been over here, but the government would have you believe otherwise, a friend of mine told me he saw the spain vs england game in a pub, and when the spanish were making the immature little monkeys noises, the whole pub was laughing...

You obviously didn't understand the point of the Del Boy quote. Whether or not 'Paki' is acceptable is another matter though it's pretty racist when all Middle Eastern people are referred to as 'Paki's'.

The point of the quote was to outline a racist stereotype that all 'Paki's' own corner shops.

Are you honestly telling me, that as an english person, you have NEVER used the term 'paki' to refer to an asian/middle eastern person, I find this quite absurd, and most english people who say racism 'sickens' them ect.. are merely scared of getting into trouble by saying something 'out of line', are you one of those people turi? i dont know, but anyone who thinks only fools and horses is 'racist' you have to wonder about :rolleyes:

Turi, you seem an intelligent guy, but quoting only fools and horses as racist, is simply stupid, and quite frankly very see-through, but anyway...

GSMD has been banned for making a personal attack. He correctly used the "Report Post" feature to inform a moderator of what he felt was an infraction of the Board's Rules, but that was AFTER he, himself, broke the rules. Regardless of who started it, he's gone. He promised to behave, but he lied.

don vencent - You were no better here in this situation. Its easy to take someone else's bait, but thats no excuse. No racial or ethnic slurs will be allowed here, regardless of who started it.

You can use the "Report Post" feature to report any problem on the boards.
