He also said "the racist lady on the tram was right" therefore he's admitted to agreeing with racist views so the argument over whether or not he's racist is pointless. He's referred to himself as one.

How do you know he was being honest?

All that tells me is that most of the people you know are ignorant *****.

He said it himself and I have no evidence to suggest he was lying, he has no reason to.

How do you know he wasn't?

Why would a black person agree with a racist? It is exactly what a WUM would say.

He seemed pretty serious about it. And being black doesnt excuse him from being a racist? Why is that hard to comprehend?

It's not an isolated comment though is it as evidenced by his twitter.

I could also ask, why are some people racist? I have no idea, some people in this life are complete scum.

These are people from different walks of life and different races. Most people in this country do it. The delicate flowers on reddit, campaigning to bring in the thought police. are just a tiny minority who everyone else laughs at.

How do you know most people in this country do it? Do you have a statistic?

Do you believe that frankie boyle and katie hopkins mean everything they say on twitter.

Can I ask what age you are and where you come from?

I only ask as in my youth a lot of people said what you are inferring but now....I can't remember in the last 10 years anyone saying "chinky" or "***** shop" without being seriously old or racist....

Don't be expecting any stats like the ones I provided him the other day when he asked for some

The reason? There ain't any :hehe:

Whether they're fake or not has no bearing on Andrew.

Exactly!

Do you remember when he responded to your stats? No? Same. I wonder why :hehe:

Tbf there are actually some decent reasons as to why some people could be racist/xenophobic even though it might not be the most PC thing to say.

What I mean by that is I think people from WWII would be understandable to still have issues with Germany and Japan as they lived through the times where those two countries were a lot harsher and nastier than they are now.

Obviously completely off topic, but I'm just saying that I don't think that all racists are necessarily scum.

As with Andrew I do wonder if he made those Tweets to get into the house? Either way the show should be careful about having him win as he'd be more controversial than Helen Wood.:joker:

ThriceShy thinks in 2016 the majority of people don't support gay adoption or homosexual relationships being taught in school, so I'm not surprised he still thinks people use terms like this

Maybe he's been Timebombed back to 1953? He did say maybe he should be a housemate

He is a wind up just like they are.

If you take all his tweets as serious then you must take theirs. Or do you have a reason to think he means his and they dont mean theirs?

I don't take his tweets or theirs as anything of the sort, I really don't waste much time following the tweets of people like that.

I'm questioning why you think your opinion that his tweets are not serious is correct and everyone else's is wrong? None of us know Andrew so it's all just personal perspective and opinion on what people find acceptable.

So far, you've told me he's not serious because a) Katie Hopkins and Frankie Boyle are wind up merchants and b) You know a lot of people who call the Chinese takeaway "chinkies"".

Forgive me for not quite being convinced by your side of this debate.

Last I checked it was about 50/50 in support for gay adoption etc.
