What's the difference between racist remarks in jest, remarks with venom and passive remarks? All racist, so it's ok to call a m8 a paki but not other members of his ethnic group? As some see it as a laugh, yet if you was overheard amongst yourselves by someone who took offence surely that makes you racist also?
I'm White but have "pakis and spades" in my family (blood and marriage) and do jest with them. Just saying all racism is racism wether the person receiving it is quite happy about the situation

just to pull together the two subjects of this thread:
i listen to a fair deal of white gospel. the major thrust of white gospel is that the bass singers are each trying to sing lower than the rival group's bass.
if you can be bothered, do a youtube for JD Sumner (wayfaring stranger).
either that or just call me a tosser straight away.

nobody ever wins on those things.

feeder , you make a good point ,,,,,,,,,,,,, theres very little you can do if your overheard having a laugh with your m8's ,,,,,,,,,,, it could be taken the wrong way indeed ,,,,,,,,,,,,, but that doesn't make you a racist .
a true racist is someone who is jealous of / or has contempt for someone , just because the colour of their skin.
its a huge can of worms ( ive admittedly opened ) with many branching facets ,,,,,,,,,,,,
one issue i have with the goverment is that ,,,,,,,,, we have (regardless of skin colour ) let too many people into this country now ,,,,,,, using up resources , jobs , housing etc which could otherwise be given to those born here ,,,,,,,,,,,,, and often these immigrants/refugees/minorities have access to these facilities via a government shortcut ,,,,,,,, yet someone born here has to wait 5 years for their council flat etc ,
now to some , that last statement could be construde as somewhat racist ,,,,,,,,,, but its not.
the other thing our namby pamby government has done is allow itself to go too far with political correctness ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, (ive said this before ) ,,,,,,,, it is now become all too easy for ethnics to play the race card when they dont get things to go their way ,,,,,,,,,, the goverment shits itself and caves in to the pressure .
but im digressing from the main point ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, which is racism sadly will always be a part of society ,,,,,,,,,, and i know i cant change the world ,,,,,,,,,, this is a free speech message board afterall ,,,,,,,,, and everyone's entitled to their opinion ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, it just gets my goat that's all. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, because we're all the same deep down ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
i remember having this conversation once with somebody ,,,,,,,,,,,,, who said to me '' if ten black guys gang raped your sister , then surely you would become a racist ??'' ,,,,,,,,,, i said no ,,,,,,,, not attal ,,,,,,,, i would just be gunning for those particular 10 guys ,
treat everybody as an individual ,,,,

Did a wild camp on a mountain called Grasmoor once. 2500FT to the lake below, and it was awesome!
