Is it racist or good old stereotyping if you laugh at where the incident involving the rappers occurred?

If we can only get these white people to clean up their act, racism will vanish forever.

Nothing racial in it.


Correct. Eddie retracted the racial implication. He liked taking the high moral ground :roll:

Sheehan is a knob, but this is a good article on the "holier than thou" Magpies.

Compared to who?
A lot of those people that have derogatory comments aimed at them come from cultures that are much less accepting of white Anglo Saxons than the other way around......................oh that's right, it's not racial abuse if a white person is on the recieving[/b] end :roll: :roll:

Spot on! I was insulted by some indiginous people in Port Augusta a few weeks ago because they saw me inadvertantly gawking at their unkempts kids who had snotty noses and were shivering because they were dressed in shorts, t-shirts and no shoes while the adults were rugged up in St Vinnies track daks and windcheaters etc. The adults railed on me and called me a F****ng white poofter. I admit to being white but I am not gay (not homophobic either as it happens). I went to the cops and asked the question - do I have to suffer this threat and abuse and they just shook their heads and said 'get real mate'.

What threat?

I felt threatened when a six foot bloke (with two smaller blokes standing behind him) confronted me with a clenched fist from about 3 or 3 feet. I meant nothing by simply staring accidentally at these poor little kids who were shivering in the street. I meant no harm. I meant no threat to them. I said nothing - I just looked and the guys arced up. Wish I'd never mentioned it here. Its a slippery slope. Dammmm - didn't mean to say slope. I meant slippery slide.

Mine of course. Should I feel guilty about this? I do work on comittees and in RAOB lodge to raise funds for those around us who are less fortunate. I do other stuff as well because if you live in the country thats how we are.

So it wasn't your race why they threatened you, just the fact you were staring at their kids. No mention of skin colour in this post yet pretty easy to see what problems might have existed.
