Obviously the main problem is that people see different things as racist. These threads/conversations are always going to exists because of peoples differing opinions. No pun intended but the subject will never be black and white. Agreed. Ive just fetched a chinky for tea, called into the paki shop on the way past for a bottle of pop. Gonna watch Robin Hood now, he was one racist fuker! Good night I think you have had a bit too much pop mate.

My problem is that what some call racist, I don't. If I were to go to Africa, and everyone there referred to me as "Whitey", why should I mind? I know that it is the intention behind the words that really matters, but I do, sort of, think that things have gone a bit too far at times. Not to condone REAL racism. You just have condoned it.

SheffPot - do you remember Chris Powell? Ex-footballer, now manages Charlton Athletic. I was having a chat with him a while back about racism and football and specifically the N word. Take it up with him, he might give you a different perspective on whether black people all agree on the use of the N word.

Go get in your baby grow and suck on your mothers tits you idiot, if you have never used the word 'packie' in any way then your probaly about 10 years old. So many key board idiots on this page. We have just won a match but all you read is a thread about some one shouting the SHOCKING word packie and a gang of lads with scalfs on worrying people. You have to be the most stupid person on this message board - you can't even spell Paki! That just goes to show his level of intelligence. He obviously didn't listen to his teacher ,so he's unlikely to listen to you. Don't waste your time.

The paki he is on about comes from a different region, it's a local dialect thing easy mistake to make, I bet he thinks they all look the same though.

Isn't it funny that in this country anyone who is from India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Iran or even England is called "Paki" because they all look the same (skin colour etc).
I have ginger hair. I guess that makes me Irish?

To be fair I struggled to understand my teacher he was Asian, that is my excuse for failing maths anyway mate.

Im sure we all call people packies,niggers,chinkies,polish cunts,Manc bastards etc behind closed doors or with close mates, if you dont agree then your a lieing cunt. At the end of the day, not many people heard it, no one was offended, it was done in humour. END OF THREAD. Well what can I say. I am devastated to discover from your obviously thoroughly researched and well thought out criteria I am actually a "lieing (sic) cunt". On the plus side it also confirms that I am not an ignorant, bigoted racist, so things aren't all bad.

Honky is the opposite of Nigger? (I've looked it up and checked) It has a derogatory meaning.
If a gentleman with a dark skin came up to me and said "Hey you little fat, brain dead, Honky twat .."
The word Honky would not upset me at all - but I might put him right on the other words.
Maybe some folks have become a little over sensitive about words?

"Honky" may well be racist and insulting but it does not have the same overtones or effect.

"But Paki is just short for Pakistani!" - check "What about Paki shop / chinky?" - check "What if I get called Whitey?" - check "Honky!" - check "Ginger hair!" - check "Is it really racist though??" - check "Ron Atkinson" - check That's right everyone, it's Racism for Dummies time on the Oatcake. Edit: how could I leave out the classic "But black people call each other nigger!!"

They seem ok with "Taff" of course when I say "we", I mean the English.

This is what I meant when I said others were being discriminated against so as not to upset another.

Why ?, still a derogatory term and clearly has racist implications, therefore no different in the eyes of the law or is it

Interestingly our club has already resolved the question of whether chanting "you're just a town full of Pxxx's" is racist or not. By law it is.
About a decade ago one of our halfwits was prosecuted for the same chant during an Oldham game. He appeared before the legendary local stipendiary Graham Richards at Fenton. Richards concluded that the chant did not amount to racial hatred.
The Crown Prosecution Service were so incensed that they appealed the ruling to the court of appeal. They held that it was certainly racist. As they commented why would it be chanted unless it infered inferiority due to country of birth. Richards reputation never fully recovered.
So, "Stoke City: Defining Racists Since 2003" - add it to the club badge?

People with ginger hair are a different race ?, WOW may explain a few things about their general behaviour though, may appear to end up as police officers could that be connected I wonder.
