Just to finish up...

I saw the post about racism, and wrote a post.
- However, the thread got closed before i posted it.
- But i think it would be benfical to the OP to read this.
- Assuming it wasnt a mindless troll, which it proberbly was...

You idoit!
- The world is a racist/sexist/judgmental place, and it always will be.
- But my god, if you think its only while people who are rasist, your a long way stuck up yor own arse!

England is so amazingly less rasist than most of the world!!

I have a freind i know whos in Saudi arabia, and by god he could tell you some storys.
- When asked, he says "its not a rasist place".
- But if he's waiting for a taxi at the train station, he knows where he stands. Behind the saudis/arabs, and infront of the paki's and bengals.
- Thats just how saudi works, now one complains, no one bats an eyelid, thats jsut how it works. Can you imagine that in england?

Where he works, on milatary aircraft, there often short of money on payday.
- And i quote him.

"Oh yes I am treated better than Pakis and Bangals but I am still an invader and as such will be buggered about all day if it so suits the Saudis and it often does. When we went three months without a pay check this did not affect the few Saudis who work for the company. They got paid!"

If mods want to remove this, fair be it, however, this is something i feel fairly strongly about, and i dont think there any reason for it to need removing, as long as it doesnt get silly in further posts. Thanks. Daniel.

Congratulations. You just made the exact reaction that the original poster was fishing for.

Further to that, i remember a disscustion within out block, in the hall dinning room at uni during our first year.
- The girl above me (a very nice attractive black girl from gamba, allbe it we didnt always se eye-to-eye)

She started said disscuation that "it was unfair that she, from gambi, had to pay more to be there than we, british citisens, had to pay"
- Ie, why our education is subsidisted, but hers isnt.

She just didnt get it at all.
- I tryed explaning that our education is subsidised by us! The britsh tax payer, via the british goventment.
- And that i wouldnt expect her, or her contry/goventment, to subsidse me to learn in her contry.

But dam it, she didnt get it at all! She kept saying it was "rasist and unfair".
- I couldnt honestly beleave it, the cheek and lack of understanding more than anythign else!

I was just stuned!

I agree with you Daniel, the UK is no way as racist as other countries! Some Spanish football fans are racist, remember Eto'o and the England players? People from other races can be just as racist towards others. It's not just white people who are racist...

- Yeah, but i makes me feel good, so is that all a bad thing?


Consider...

only whites are racist,
any other skin colour being racist is an urban myth. (sarcasm)

A friend of mine was telling me on tuesday night how he got into a fight with some black kids. They provoked him into it by calling him a white c**t amonst other things, it was the racist comment that sparked him off

Didn't read the other thread, but I just thought I'd add what happened to me sometime last year, I live in Leicester, in an area where white is the ethnic minority. I was with a few friends, going to go on a park. We got stopped, told that the park was "an Indian park" and that if we went on any further we would be beaten up!
