He did NOT say "View Post
He made a joke about people with turbans hiding bombs in them"

That IS what happened and what he was rightfully warned for.. how can it be made up if he was caught up for it.

Did you actually watch the video? It appears not!

I doubt it. Would being equated with a genocidal mass murder murderer like the (Christian) Adolf Hitler be found amusing by a Christian?

Obviously you didn't if you think he was not warned for making that remark... deary.

I am totally disgusted ,really taking the pee now

[QUOTE=reece(:;6331247]Racist jokes are unacceptable.[/QUOTE

How conformist of you.

That one was actually justified IMO.

..it was totally justified as was the one yesterday as well..the only thing that's still stupid is that BB were guilty themselves last night as well..

Fingers my friend ,yes it is

I can see why he got a warning for it,even more so after Carol's warning last night.
I actually hadn't taken it the way it was pointed out,I thought at first he meant it some other way but then I saw why,once it was pointed out why he would get a warning even more so.

Doesn't change my opinion of him one bit, I still really like him but you do have to be really careful and more to the point very sensitive as to what you say and how you say it on TV.
I am not saying that is right too but it is a fact that you have to be, or you can find yourself pilloried and in deep trouble.

That one was actually justifiable because he said it and it wasn't a quote, though once again I wish they'd reprimand them rather than just immediately giving them a 'formal warning'. They never used to do that and it's so OTT

It was a badly judged joke but i don't think there was any hatred in it

There is much more hatred in the BB eviction crowd towards individuals like Hazel, Courtney etc

But in today's society, racial jokes are considered to be worse than non-racial hatred towards individuals

Ron should know that by now and he should and have kept quiet

Defo a racist comment.

You would think Ron especially would be minding his Ps and Qs when it comes to stuff like this.

It was justified, he basically suggested headscarf wearers are commonly terrorists.

The warning was totally justified.

[QUOTE=sassysocks;6331380]And what's that supposed to mean? Instead of being so god damn offensive try and argue your points.

I agree. I think too many on here lack any empathy or understanding of how things were for his generation and how it must be hard for a man of his age to have to watch every single word he says for fear of it offending someone - which is actually pretty AGEIST. I feel for the poor man.

It's the intention that counts, and he clearly didn't intend to offend anyone. Some are simply so easily 'offended' the rest of us are being forced to jump to their tune by the PC mad scaredy cats called BB. Bunch of plebs.

It was breathtaking. One minute he's telling Mario he still does football punditry for some digital channels.... including Middle Eastern ones.

Then he makes an anti-Islamic comment. He seems set on destroying what little remains of his TV career.

lol Ron should have a bit more tact especially with his history. In terms of previous warnings it fits the bill for one, but the joke is no biggie

..there was prejudice in it to associate someone wearing a turban with bombs..

No he did not, please watch it without pc detector turned up loud

She did NOT have a turban on, she had a cardigan around her head like a headscarf

Seriously? Honest to god the fake outrage and ability to get offended on behalf of other sections of society, on here is so damn annoying.
