superbobby Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 I wonder how loud she'd have squealed had a white MP generalised about blacks......... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-16423278
Ani Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 I wonder how loud she'd have squealed had a white MP generalised about blacks......... http://www.bbc.co.uk...litics-16423278 she has to be sacked
maaarsh Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 she has to be sacked Nah, sacking would only occur with press pressure, and the BBC won't apply any in a case like this - they're already happily spreading her 'out of context' bullshit. The real joke if her defending the concept of community leaders. No one would be stupid enough to apply that term to a white community, but Diane and her ilk make a very nice career of perpetuating the idea that they represent the united block of all black people.
superbobby Posted January 5, 2012 Author Posted January 5, 2012 Was it Cyril Smith that had to remind her that she had been elected to represent all her constituents, regardless of colour/race/creed?
Whites man Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Not acceptable. Whilst we are here, as a white middle class liberal I find the "N word" offensive whether a white or a black person says it, don't buy all the "I can say it because I am" line at all.
no balls Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) It's not the first time, actually it's not even the second time. Is she racist? I'm not sure. She certainly shouldn't be. Does she not think before she speaks/types? Definately. Edited January 5, 2012 by no balls
anewman Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 I'm sick of all this bollocks I wonder why them 47 asian who ws at iverpool crown court today on charges of grooming young white girls etc has been kept out of the papers and the news????
maaarsh Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Love the BBC article saying there are claims the tweet were racist. Claims! The dictionary definition of racism is... "belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races" So ascribing a negative charactistic to all white people without discrimination (geddit) is unequivocally racist. Some might say it's an example of how the negative conotations of words can race ahead of their technical definitions, but it's illuminating to see who gets the benefit of that, and who doesn't. One of the most pernicious trends at the moment is to take a word with strongly negative connotations, tweak the technical meaning whilst retaining the connotations, and thus use the word as a brush to paint that connotation all over areas which do not deserve it. Cross reference, (relative) poverty.

On that topic... As per the Stephen Lawrence report, 'a racist incident is any incident which is perceived to be racist by the victim or any other person.' I find it worrying a judge could reach such a monumentally stupid decision. In fact, I consider his creation of this definition a racism incident. And thus it is. I'm off to get some ice cream. Please nobody perceive it to be a racist incident, as I'm rationing myself to 3 per day.

superbobby Posted January 5, 2012 Author Posted January 5, 2012 Don't even start me on Harriet 'Jobs for the girls' Harmon.......
superbobby Posted January 5, 2012 Author Posted January 5, 2012 What, like Suarez was? No like she wanted to happen to Sepp Blatter...............
chief wiggum Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 No like she wanted to happen to Sepp Blatter............... Shouldn't he be?
Big E Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 What, like Suarez was? How many times Suarez knows/has seen a black person before so it is ok. You clearly know nothing about culture etc etc ha ha ha
whiteboy Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 she is a despicable leftie hypocrite love this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxRqMJHG56A&feature=player_embedded
birch-chorley Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 One rule for one? Dont be daft, did you not know that racism only works one way.
chief wiggum Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Everyone One rule for one? Dont be daft, did you not know that racism only works one way. No it doesn't, so everyone on here who defended Suarez should defend Abbott, what's the diference? Apart from her being black... oh.. I see..
Youri Djorkaeff Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 I'm sick of all this bollocks I wonder why them 47 asian who ws at iverpool crown court today on charges of grooming young white girls etc has been kept out of the papers and the news???? The Sun and Daily Hate are forover covering stories like this
Youri Djorkaeff Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Stupid thing to say. There's no way the lass is racist just like i dont think Suarez is racist but for a person of her "intelligence" and political standing how the feck can she come out with such shite.

You talkin to me? Just trying to make the point that there are plenty of double standards on here...
Youri Djorkaeff Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 she is a despicable leftie hypocrite love this http://www.youtube.c...player_embedded Aha brilliant, her ignorance is bliss. Not sure how the fact she left wing is relevent though. Despicable hypocrits are rife on all of the political spectrum, more often on the right i find, i dont think i need to give examples.
Youri Djorkaeff Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 You talkin to me? Just trying to make the point that there are plenty of double standards on here... No mate, just making a general comment on the incident
