During the war, we got pissed off at the yanks - over paid, over sexed and over here. As long as folk are the same colour, its ok to hate them. The scottish and the english, the irish and the english, the yanks and the other americans. Thats ok, but as soon as someone gets an all over suntan then we have to put ducktape on our mouths in case we say something racist. We all got called something - specky, fatty, beanpole, stick insect, crater face, all sorts of things that could hurt ur feelings. And what did our mums say ... sticks and stones. And we grew up fine, knowing that names will never hurt us so invented some good ones ourselves to throw back.
I am not suggesting that we all become little racists and start beating each other up, but its getting out of control. Many immigrants to this country are not integrating at all, and demanding that we as a society bow to their culture and views. Remember the nursery song baa baa black sheep? It was banned in my nursery.

Coz they are a bunch of over-sensitive ****suckers.
Actually, you make agood point, but I assume you are white..? If you ask someone who has been a victim of racism about their experiences, you would probably not ask this question. It is hateful and causes real harm, and so is not acceptable to many people, even as 'nothing, throw away comments'.
But..
There is a balance to be struck. Baa baa white sheep's wool is ****.

I don't think its anything to do with black and white, its to do with different attitude of many immigrants here now - mainly white. As far as I'm concerned, we have been taken over and are being used. I think we should make up a new song... baa baa bastards, any chance of getting back of some of our wool?

"As long as folk are the same colour, its ok to hate them."
You reckon? Sounds complete BS to me, mate. How do you go about hating a nation, or hating a race? Hate is much to personal an emotion: it's one thing saying that you hate Brian McBrian next door, but how can you hate a big abstract group of people you've never met. I don't buy it at all.

Why would you want to get pissed off at anyone? Sounds like you're full of drama and like to stir up commotion to me. Trust me, don't start anything you can't handle. It's not worth it. How quickly we forget....America don't belong to anyone except for the Native Americans. I don't hear them ranting and raving as much. We are ALL immigrants. Who are we to determine who should stay in America? Live and let live is what I say.

I dont know weather or not to agree (I dont want to get called racist!)
I see what you are saying, I think that its not fair to be pissed off at a whole nation whats the point? you will never know every person so how do you know what they are like.
Theres no need to stoop to their level either just ignore other people and take people as they are, if they want to be nice then be their friend, if they aren't then dont have anything to do with them (no matter what their nationalilty)

I don't think it's nationalities you want to be pissed off with. You just want to be able to say things in general about a person who pisses you off no matter whether they are black, purple, blue or beige wearing a pair of cloggs. And you should be able to do that. You should be able to tell off somebody no matter where they are from. If we live in equality then the telling off part of life applies just as much as the being nice and protective part of things.

I agree, but don't you think that they have been encouraged to be that way by, educationalists, lefty/liberal governments and their apologists, left wing TV media, the EU with its human rights act, you get my drift. The Liberal establishment often state that things have caused offence, when they haven't. Once the PC brigade get a foothold, they spread their empires by looking for trouble, and inventing new reasons for their existence.

Why should people of other culture assimilate into British culture? When the British colonised half of the globe did they try and integrate into those cultures? Raping the female population doesn't count!

i don't know but your right. plus there's that thing you can get pissed off at your your own race but others your doomed. Like African Americans. They can call themselves whatever they want but if someone else does the same thing they get treatened or beat up (not a sweeping generalization).
Everything has to be politically correct
