Would you say racism serves any place in our society?

[Redway]

I don't. I have no sympathy for them. Horrible people. I've seen the way they treat people of other cultures, particularly Asians. They all need to die a slow death, tbh.

[InOne]

Didn't you just answer your own question?

[Boothy]

No. I don't understand how anyone could say otherwise.

[Redway]

Didn't you just answer your own question?

I'm offering my opinion.

[Redway]

I really don't want this thread to end up closed - it's covering serious issues.

[King Gizzard]

No...don't think there's any discussion about it either :S

[Redway]

I wish they weren't allowed on the bus - that's how strongly I feel about it.

[Pyramid*]

I'm not sure what there is to discuss.

Bearing in mind..... racism is something that is not tolerated (on the forum). If anyone should unbelievably be racist - they are hardly likely to say, "Yeah, racism deserves major respect" are they.

[Pyramid*]

I wish they weren't allowed on the bus - that's how strongly I feel about it.

You wish WHO werent allowed on the bus........

[Redway]

You wish WHO werent allowed on the bus........

Racists. They shouldn't be allowed anywhere.

[Mystic Mock]

I dont believe in Racism but I believe they should be allowed to say what they like,as I think it angers some Racists more and then they beat the **** out of different cultured people.

And OP do remember Blacks and Asians can be Racists to.

[Pyramid*]

Racists. They shouldn't be allowed anywhere.

Isn't that a form of inverted racism in its own right - or even perhaps xenophobia. The right to allow a person their own view (despite how much we abhor it?).

[Stu]

Racists. They shouldn't be allowed anywhere.
So you would do to them the exact thing you hate them for?

Wow. You really are an absoloute moron.

But then ... obvious troll is obvious.

[Marc]

I would be very surprised if anybody on here said: "yeah racists are amazing :love: they are the glue that holds this society together" etc.
What a strange thread :suspect:

[Redway]

And OP do remember Blacks and Asians can be Racists, too.

I know - whether the racist person is black, Asian, English or whatever, racism is racism - they don't deserve respect, whatever colour.

[Redway]

So you would do to them the exact thing you hate them for?

Wow. You really are an absoloute moron.

Go away, Stu. **** off.

[Stu]

Go away, Stu. **** off.
What's the point in starting a serious debate if you cannot defend your own tedious, ill thought out views?

What would Mensa say?

[Mystic Mock]

I know - whether the racist person is black, Asian, English or whatever, racism is racism - they don't deserve respect, whatever colour.

I know they shouldnt be respected,but I believe they should be allowed to go on a bus.:joker:

[Crimson Dynamo]

we are all a bit racist

its normal and natural.

[Boothy]

we are all a bit racist

its normal and natural.

How do you figure this one out?

Why label people "trolls" because they have a different opinion to you?

[Callum]

What the hell? Any need for this topic? :rolleyes: Obviously nobody's going to condone racists

[Redway]

we are all a bit racist

its normal and natural.

Really, now?

[Crimson Dynamo]

How do you figure this one out?

It is natural to gravitate towards your own kind and be wary of strangers of race - its what kept our ancestors alive

[Stu]

I know they shouldnt be respected,but I believe they should be allowed to go on a bus.:joker:
Exactly. Respect and the liberty to basic public amenities are two entirely seperate things. The idea is to lead by example because after all we claim to be living in the free world. You can't stop people from getting on a bus because you don't like their views. That's exactly what they would do to the races they don't like if they had the chance.

I'm continually flabbergasted how how stupid some people are. It's staggering.

[Mystic Mock]

I think what Leathertrumpet is trying to say is that everybody has a Prejudice.

[Crimson Dynamo]

98 % of Ireland and 95% of Scotland is white

[Redway]

Like yourself? Not everyone agrees with you? You know what I'm flabbergasted by? People who cannot accept other people's opinions without resorting to bad language or just taking the piss.

[Pyramid*]

Hard to believe but I am 100% in agreement with you.

*I need to go take a lie down now*

[Boothy]

Speak for yourself then.

[Pyramid*]

I know - whether the racist person is black, Asian, English or whatever, racism is racism - they don't deserve respect, whatever colour.

So you think colour of skin maketh a racist? Really!!!

Deary me. If ever there was a subconscious racist comment to be made - I believe you just won the award for doing so.

[Redway]

Speak for yourself then.

Thanks, Boothy. Nice to know some people aren't on here just to take the piss.

Obviously, you can't tell people what to think, and maybe I was wrong in saying they shouldn't be able to take the bus, but they certainly shouldn't be respected.

[Redway]

NO! What I'm saying is whether racists are black, white or whatever, they shouldn't be given respect. READ my posts before jumping to stupid conclusions.

[Stu]

Who says I have not 'accepted' it? I know it's your opinion. I accept that. And I went on to say your opinion is stupid and you are stupid. These are things I think and also fall under the banner of 'opinion' because they are also opinions. My opinions.

You still have not bothered to defend your ludicrous views. Perhaps it would help us all understand how your mind ticks a little better if you explained why you think racists should not be allowed on the bus?

[Pyramid*]

No-one's taking the piss, they're just not in agreement with you. You seem to be good at expressing your opinions but have nothing to back them up.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Speak for yourself then.

You have to understand the past to live life forwards

[Crimson Dynamo]

Mr Pot, let me introduce you to Mr Kettle.

No, I'm not "stupid". Stupid people cannot voice their views. Some opinions can be backed up by statistical facts.

One of the strangest threads I have come across on here, and thats saying something.

Also, full of arguments.

Closed.
