So people are going off the things he's said...does his strong Mancunian accent make him a 'chav'? Or as I said earlier, does insulting people make you a 'chav'? It seems to change every day.

Also I never posted a laughing smiley with the video, it was the worship smiley which was actually towards the points he was making, I never agreed with his use of the insults and felt he let himself down there, but that doesn't detract from the points he is making.
I was referring to him perpetuating a stereotype due to his own misconceptions of the police.
I have not suggested this man is a 'chav'.
The insults do detract from the point he is making jack, they make a huge difference as it changes the whole connotation of the conversation.
