I don't agree with this.I think it is quite ridiculous.I think it's just a way to excuse racism in the west from non whites.

Racism is racism and non of it should be excused from anybody,No matter their colour.

..that's not how I interpreted the article/blog or whatever it is exactly but more inline with the OP and the vid in that really...get out of that Arab country quick before you get hurt Paul...:laugh:...

I agree with all of this.

the unfair treatment of members of majority groups resulting from preferential policies, as in college admissions or employment, intended to remedy earlier discrimination against minorities.

Does 3 Asian women beating up a white girl whilst calling her a “white slag” got a slap on the wrist, yet the white woman on the Train or Bus who verbally attacked black and asian people and was locked up in Prison for three years count as reverse racism? I'm kinda torn on how to term those decisions that got completely different outcomes from what was essentially racism in both cases.
