Remember BB6, at one time, Maxwell sprinkled his own scab and put it in Science's food. That was really low and stupid to do!! Nobody(public) seemed to care back then.

If someone did that now, would the person be kicked out or done in for racist behaviour?

I was wondering this last night.

He didn't do it cause Science was black, he did it because he didn't like Science.

possibly cos the arm chair complainers complain about anything these days

I know, but if that happened now and a white person did that black person, no matter if they didnt like each other, the public will see it as racist, even if its got nothing to do with it.

He later denied it and IIRC we never actually saw any footage of it, just of Maxwell telling Anthony and Craig that he did it.

I don't think it would be considered racist, even now. I think it just would show what a disgusting person the "scab-picker" was - he would probably be evicted at the first opportunity.

Maybe it would be more along the lines of assault? If spitting, i.e. forcing bodily fluids/parts at another housemate if assualt, maybe forcing one to eat your scabs would be?

No its not racist just nasty

[30stone]

Naw science was just being an asshole, nothing racist.

Personally I dont think it was a racist act but in todays times where any little thing is blown up my the media and everyone jumps on the massive band wagon anything could happen

[Spike]

It depends on whether the Daily Mail printed the story, we have seen what power that paper has over the last 2 years in getting people to complain

[AlexBigBrother]

it was worse when anthony called derek malteser head, but even that isnt racist

[Fom]

Its not racist but knowing the world we live in someone would say it was, even calling someone a malteaser head isn't racist. They are making a reference to their colour... they are not being racist. Racist is when you insult someone because of their race... like... 'Oh no you are going to stab me because you are black' thats racist.
If you say 'Oh look you are black' thats not racist, thats pointing out the obvious.

[Indierock&roll]

people would of definatly complained more these days .. people are so over reactive..

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

he did it coz he hated science nothing to do with the colour of his skin
