The worlds gone mad..its officialn England a boy of eleven is to face a criminal trial for what is described as a "glorified schoolyard incident". When he was still ten, he was taunted by an Asian classmate at a school in Ipswich for being overweight and was likened to a tellytubby. The overweight boy then allegedly called his taunter a "Paki bastard" and punched him twice in the back. Neither taunt was very pleasant, but for goodness sake this banter goes on between kids all over the world every day. I went to a school in Leicester with a high black and Asian ratio of students and I was called an English or white bastard (and worse) many times. But so what? Its just playground talk, just teasing between kids, that's all.
But not in these days of Big Brother, it's not. Wait for this:......click link for more..
For God's (or No God's) sake it is JUST A BODY. And if people are offended by references to their bodies, well they can just as easily choose not to be offended. What this nonsense is doing is making people choose their words so carefully that it is having an increasingly subconscious affect on our ability to open our mouths and speak without watching every last word and assessing the consequences first. A better definition of psychological fascism I cannot imagine.
both kids were wrong... but once again, the fat kid gets picked on with no-one to take his side...

Racism is a crutch of the weak-minded, the insecure and the unintelligent.
indeed...
Free speech is great but it needs to be restricted like it is here in Canada. People can easily use it for bad things. Here on public waves (tv,ads,radio,) you can't say stuff that makes fun of a minority. So nazi man giving brochures in front of school, bad/illegal. Nazi man talks amoung friends at his house. Nothing. You can't publically go start making fun of people here without getting in trouble, which is good. However privately in clubs and such is protected under free speech.
I was watching this special on slavery the other day, man I gotta tell ya that those white folks were barbaric.
I mean one photo showed a black guy getting half of his brain blown off, hanging upside down from a hung tree with a family of white folks smiling and posing for the camera. I mean nowadays caucasian people are lucky black folks don't just start killing them for nothing. I mean the whole white race seem to be nothing but savages and barbarians. Who are the savages when you watch atrocities like that. Are Blacks just suppose to forget and move on? You tell me!!!

How bad is racism where you live?
do you either say freedom of speech, or not allow racism
Well I guess it's up to them (Afro-Americans) to stop the hate?
But my question is why should they?
They have been violated so much. Stripped from their rights, freedom and identity just to serve another race? I mean I got Black friends and they can't let it go, but I can't blame them. Those responsible for these atrocities more than half of them have never been punished or even uncovered. I mean what's to stop Blacks from going postal and say" An eye for an eye"?
