Yes - but two wrongs don't make a right.

Agreed, but racism needs to be exposed and stopped whenever it occurs or else it may grow into something bigger.

There were kids in Dippers audience FFS they don't need to hear that rubbish.

I see somebody beat me to pointing out that "Itie" bloke, Dipper, has joined in now.
And I see the Spaniards are blaming their Soccer loss on being distracted by a female reporter on the sidelines.
When will it ever end... ;)

Geez everyone is so bloody precious these days, while yes what Mal Brown said was racist, to me its all about the delivery of slurrs such as this, that define whether or not the person is being racist.
