[Drexl]

Charged with racism and anti Semiticism

FA's credibility has sunk to a new low

So Jews don't take coins??,

Jewish cashiers do. Unless they're out of change, then it might be card only.

So a Jewish black guy is nicked for making a joke.
Peter Sellers used to appear on Michael Parkinson wearing a Nazi helmet. Jesus Christ....oops?

He's not Jewish.

He's not Jewish.

Who, Peter Sellers?

Who, Peter Sellers?

Balotelli. His mother is Jewish. He stated "my mother is jewish", not himself.

For example: My own mother is Muslim. I'm not.

The word Paki was used in Only Fools and Horses. That doesn't mean it's acceptable these days.

 

[prawnsandwich]

Acceptable, schmacceptable.

Balotelli isn't racist although he might be a bit stupid, this doesn't compare to Suarez but Liverpool sure know how to pick 'em.

Who gives a fuck. I don't think he's racist. He put up a pictures that said jumps like a black man takes coins like a jew.
Are those bad serotypes. Is this even racism? Isn't racism meant to be derogatory?
Who cares. Everyone seems too precious, just too sensitive.
Is chasing money a bad thing, everyone seems to be doing it, and if your race is seen as being superior at it, is that bad. Has the world become more about the quest for Spiritual enlightenment and less about monetary gain. Same with the dave whelan thing.
Like another poster said earlier in the thread mock outrage.
Because so few famous people (Mel Gibson) say anything truly inflammatory about other races people jump on anything to get a sense of faux outrage. It's getting sad now.
Everyone should watch the museum of tolerance episode of South Park
