Default Racism or Playground Bullying

I think the whole racism issue is getting out of hand. Personally, this seem more like playground bullying. They dont like Shilpa, so they are finding fault in whatever she does or say. Yes, Shilpa did imitate Jade's accent and laughed but it seem to me that she is also laughing at herself as she wasnt doing a good job at it. However, when Jo did Shilpa's accent - it was behind her back and in a mocking way. I cannot believe that these 3 are adults and to bitch like that. No compassion at all. How would Jade feel if her kids are being bullied?? And Danielle acting like a 15year-old - hope Teddy is going to show off his great girl-friend. And to think that Jo used to be in S-Club 7 - a popular band with young children???? Bullies-Club 3 more like it.

Why is it people feel you can only be racist if you had a skin head, a nazi tattoo and chuck bricks through windows?

Racism takes a variety of forms and this is one of them

Jade is not a racist, she doesnt like Shilba, maybe it is bullying, but not racism. Shame on Shilba for playing the race card so quickly. She has now decided to take back her accusation to Jade, bit to late since her fans in india have began to set fire to big brother posters.

Well according to the news when Shilpa was asked in the diary room if she thought she thought the others were being racist towards her she said no. She is in the best position to judge how she fells about the remarks.

It would seem the press have blown up a case of very aggressive bulling into a race issue which was then jumped on by the Government as a vote winner.

As for all the complaints to Ofcom, I could think of ways of noticing up 10,000 plus emails in a day about any programme. It's not hard.

I think this has been TOTALLY blown out of proportion!!!

I don't particularly like Jade .... But Shilpa annoys me and she would irritate me too .... and I am definately no racist .... it is her personality i do not like!

I have heard a few racist comments in the house and not one of them has come from Jade ....

I realy feel all this has been blown out of proportion. Jade is not being racist, I agree with what some people have said on this forum that it is childhood bullying. I think the reason this has been blown out of proportion the the state of the UK with all this political correctness crap. I trully believe that the people who are complaining about the "racism" in big brother are carrying a deep down racism themselfs and what they see on the TV makes them feel uncomfortable.

I don't think it's racism at all, just playground bullying. Jade doesn't like Shilpa (for reasons that would take years to write out) and I don't think they're intelligent to realise how they sound. I can't blame them for finding Shilpa annoying but their reaction is awful and they should try being honest. But we all know in the BB house that confrontation seems to be a no-no... Anyway, it's not black and white like some people want to believe

It certainly only seems to be an issue ....

Some of the others have said worse things but they are not getting all of this hatred !
