i feel sorry for you thrush, i really do. I tried to be as careful as possible in the way i asked you to refrain from making racist remarks. Yes, they are racist and you're so catastrophically stupid that you persist with them? You are your own worst enemy.
i'm all for having a laugh about my skin colour and have done so with a few posters on this site. Its all a bit of harmless fun. Until its thrown at me with malice or as an insult, which it was. I politely asked you to refrain and you cant stop. Its racist. That makes you a racist. All your own work. Well done.

My friend, you have some very, VERY black and white, right or wrong views on life, it would appear, based on some of your responses in this thread alone...
Something said tounge-in-cheek doesn't make somebody a racist, amigo. If there was no malice in it, it was just a bad joke... We're all so ready to jump on bandwagons (race, sex, sexual orientation, etc...) these days, it's almost a self fulfilling prophesy now.
Had it been me, he'd probably have told me to throw a potato at him, or something.
It was silly, and he was just looking for attention. And yes, he should have apologised when you asked him to. But he's just a gobshite, not a nazi.

yeh there are one or two things in life i feel very strongly about. This is one of them. Think about it this way. I politely made it clear to him that it was out of order and it didnt take a genius to work out why. It was meant as an insult which he persisted with even though i made it clear how i felt. I have experienced racism before and i know a racist remark when i hear one. Sorry mate.

So, it's the lack of an apology and/or a retraction that made up your mind, not the initial offering, is it?
That I can understand, more than just the first effort...
[/quote]
roger is a crackpot. After reading his initial post i wasnt sure. After calmly and politely pointing out what i took offence to he persisted. He knows i took offence to it and that it was meant as an insult and not as a laugh or as in jest. Roger often poorly attempts to have a go at me and is never amicable towards me. It was meant as an insult with racial undertones. The fact that he persisted just confirms it. If i were to ever have a joke with someone and it were deemed to be racially inappropriate and they took even the slightest offence, i would apologise in a heartbeat.

I guess Roger didn't feel the need to apologise as he didn't mean it in a racist (or offensive) manner.
If he apologised for something he didn't intend offensively, or remotely attribute racist overtones to, his apology would be both hollow and hypocritical.
I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill.

No,he meant it as an insult.
The same way it would have been if Paddy had said he was learning martial arts and Roger had asked whether he threw potatos at his opponent.
But Roger's a moron, so it's not surprising.

Oh ffs foureyes, light the fcuk up you onion bajhee farting pansy.
Just cos you're fucking asian, it doesnt mean the whole world has to be extra sensitive to your colour and watch what they say or joke about. In fact, you're probably more racist than most of us cos it seems to bother you more and you think of 'race' more than us. What defines a 'racist' ? It's when that person sees the world through a pair of 'race'-tinted glasses. Everything's that going on in this world, or said to you has to go through your filter in that if it's racist, prejudiced, or stereotyped or not. Gawd, it must feel real miserably uptight being you.
I suggest you take a leaf out of ppl's books such as Anita, Asim, SingleRider, Ong, LeTallecWiz and probably even myself...by removing that pair of glasses and seeing the world how it should be seen....with the heart.
Do they care if someone makes a joke bout their race ? Especially on an internet website ? Do they fcuk.
Look around these boards and you'll notice, every now and then, ppl take the piss out of the Oirish. But do you see a huge, overly-dramatic tantrum thrown about ? Hell naw. Banter, rather than arguments, ensues instead.
My joke about onion bajhees may be a bit tasteless (blatantly a lie cos I find onion bajhees yummy) but there was in no way whatsoever, meant to be racist nor was it intended to insult. It's not my fault you took it the wrong way and made a big fuss out of it.
See what you've fcukign done. You made me try to write a long-winded post, which I've hardly done so for like a million years. My vocab's pretty limited and it makes it look incoherent.
*tries to use the excuse of a poor command of English language to get away out of a messy situation once again*

I disagree completely.
I feel that an apology means more if you make it without actually feeling that you should have to.
Isn't "Sorry that I hurt your feeling. I really didn't mean to" better than "Sorry I called you a fat cow"?
The first is volunteered and genuine. The second, well...

I suggest you take a leaf out of ppl's books such as Anita, Asim, SingleRider, Ong, LeTallecWiz and probably even myself...by removing that pair of glasses and seeing the world how it should be seen....with the heart.
Do they care if someone makes a joke bout their race ? Especially on an internet website ? Do they fcuk.
Look around these boards and you'll notice, every now and then, ppl take the piss out of the Oirish. But do you see a huge, overly-dramatic tantrum thrown about ? Hell naw. Banter, rather than arguments, ensues instead.
My joke about onion bajhees may be a bit tasteless (blatantly a lie cos I find onion bajhees yummy) but there was in no way whatsoever, meant to be racist nor was it intended to insult. It's not my fault you took it the wrong way and made a big fuss out of it.
See what you've fcukign done. You made me try to write a long-winded post, which I've hardly done so for like a million years. My vocab's pretty limited and it makes it look incoherent.

Oh ffs foureyes, light the fcuk up you onion bajhee farting pansy.
Just cos you're fucking asian, it doesnt mean the whole world has to be extra sensitive to your colour and watch what they say or joke about. In fact, you're probably more racist than most of us cos it seems to bother you more and you think of 'race' more than us. What defines a 'racist' ? It's when that person sees the world through a pair of 'race'-tinted glasses. Everything's that going on in this world, or said to you has to go through your filter in that if it's racist, prejudiced, or stereotyped or not. Gawd, it must feel real miserably uptight being you.

So, it's the lack of an apology and/or a retraction that made up your mind, not the initial offering, is it?
That I can understand, more than just the first effort...

roger is a crackpot. After reading his initial post i wasnt sure. After calmly and politely pointing out what i took offence to he persisted. He knows i took offence to it and that it was meant as an insult and not as a laugh or as in jest. Roger often poorly attempts to have a go at me and is never amicable towards me. It was meant as an insult with racial undertones. The fact that he persisted just confirms it. If i were to ever have a joke with someone and it were deemed to be racially inappropriate and they took even the slightest offence, i would apologise in a heartbeat.

I guess Roger didn't feel the need to apologise as he didn't mean it in a racist (or offensive) manner.
If he apologised for something he didn't intend offensively, or remotely attribute racist overtones to, his apology would be both hollow and hypocritical.
I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill.

No,he meant it as an insult.
The same way it would have been if Paddy had said he was learning martial arts and Roger had asked whether he threw potatos at his opponent.
But Roger's a moron, so it's not surprising.
[/quote]
I guess there's a fine line between harmless banter and an insult then.
I just don't think there would have been the same reaction if someone other than Roger had said it. Granted he cultivates his own controversial persona on here, but I'd give him the benefit of the doubt in this instance.
