Did you even research it?
You haven't, you've just jumped to an assumption that white no go areas exist in every country in the west. You also jump to the conclusion that white no areas means that racism is tolerated towards white people by the population, continuing that logic though, that means that any no go areas for non white people means that the population is also tolerate of racism towards non white people.

It is you that indicated that the mods haven't treated you fairly not me.
Actually it was you who brought a 3 or 4 yr old incident into it, and not me.
I've seen you post about that incident more than once and once you post it on the forum then it is fair game.

What I've said and what I maintain is that life affecting abuse i.e. didn't get the job/promotion, didn't get the social invite, or whatever is the same net result for the person at the end of it. The same is said for offending a person. How do you think Bale feels when getting monkey boy chants?
Hmm never heard of someone getting turned down for jobs because they have big ears before or an apartheid system that puts people with big ears as a lower class of people compared to the rest of the population...have you?

I've not read any of this thread and i'm not about to go through it as I realy can't be bothered. I agree with KY though from the last few pages. There are different levels of acceptance depending on what's fashionable, and i'm talking about different races not whether a fella has ginger hair or not.

I'll give you one example. I drive a cab and on occasion when i pick up students they sometimes come out with a lot of racist talk with regards to the their Chinese counterparts. Whether it's because they see them as too straight or keen I really don't know (if it is i suggest they grow up as that reminds me of being at school), and also it's usually the girls that come out with it (god knows why that is). That just wouldn't ever happen with regards to talking about black people or probably any other race or colour of skin. Why are people from the Orient fair game when it comes to racism? but black peiople aren't? Is it because of slavery? I'm pretty sure black people aren't the only ones who went through it.

I think some people consider them fair game because there are less of them and there is less integrated compared to black people and there are are more people ignorant about their culture that doesn't mean racism towards them should be accepted though, I am just giving reasons.

Let me ask you though, would you have thrown these people out of your cab if they were being racist towards black people?

as this is now going off on a tangent, and before others join Suarez on the side line for a few games I think its best to close this.

Just be glad its Christmas, other wise some of you lot would be getting more than just coal with some of the abuse in here....
