Poirot

'Are you saying that a crowd of people shouting "ape" to a footballer going about his business of providing skill, entertainment and dedication for the public's benefit, is somehow acceptable...because "most" people accept evolutionary theory?

no its not acceptable however the evolutionary fantasy leads to a logical conclusion that some are less evolved than others. Or have they revised their textbooks again. Generally evolutionist are very slow to admit their mistakes.

Poirot>>If I'm "soooo easy" - why are you the one who's reduced to pulling out the sexist tactic and calling me "darling" (Loudmouth used to try that tactic with "sweetie" when he'd run out of ammo).<<

P, now really, is that a tactic sugar?

SOG I admire your retreat .
But let us all be honest.
The Crimson song came out in 1957!
We had no idea it was so bad until we got decades past its release.
The right to vote, shame fully not given to these folk came years after.
One northern NSW town voted strongly against it!
Are we to include music hall black faced performers like Al Jolson too?
How do we confront the rag doll we once called a now racist name,are girls who owned them racist?
What about that boot polish factory I helped demolish? N**&& Boy?
At the negotiation table,after committing to deal with each other in an honest way.
We put rule one in place * lets leave the past sins, of both sides, and work together *
That path works , constant harping about nothing or bad events hardens both sides against change.
I remain convinced the thread is nit picking.

Jansey, "Was my reaction to the dog's name justified?"

First, 'wow' on only just joining and two posts up immediately. With your clever storytelling your racist GF just HAD to be a middle class white woman, right? You are here to spruik your clever manipulative form of activism, by a clever story aimed at stereotyping whites and manufacturing outrage.

As for 'Jigaboo', what Australian would know. No-one outside of activists who are deeply into US black activism of a creepy sort would have ever seen the word. It is niche US black rapper weirdo. Alien to Aussies and most Americans too. Google:

<A jiggaboo is person that reinforces the many black stereotypes such as...
Mainly listens to rap music (i.e. 2-Pac)
Eats chicken all the time (i.e. KFC)
Uses common black phrases or words (i.e "What it do?" and "folks")
Wears name brand clothes (i.e. Rocawear or Ecko)
Wears doo-rags
Lazy and stupid
Smokes alot of weed>

and,

< A male black (negro with dark skin) that makes a fool of himself by exclusively chasing after white women.
A male black that dates only white women as a status symbol.
A male black that considers white women as superior to black women.
A nigga that divorces his black wife to date a white woman.
Every time Becky walks past him, Jamal drools and starts tap dancing while grabbing his penis and yelling "I is a jiggaboo and I wants ta fux you"
Jiggaboo Terrence would give Becky his last piece of fried chicken if she asked for it.
Jiggaboo Darryl would slap the p*ss out of his mama if Becky told him to.

Rappers and NBA players are jiggaboos.

Blacky said that dating white ladies is like driving a brand new Mercedes, but dating black bitches is like taking the number 2 bus. Blacky is such a jiggaboo>

So come back Jansey from that other virtual rapper Jigaboo universe where fantasy stories are concocted to win street cred, because you have some explaining to do.

Good afternoon to you POIROT...

You should walk around for awhile in some venues, wearing a police uniform and see the amount of taunts and abuse you receive, more often behind your back ? :-)

Seriously, I'll readily concede, taunts of a kind that are directed at your ethnic origin, or your skin colour, may amount to an appreciable more emotional 'hurt', than perhaps abuse designed to offend your vocational choice ? Then if we were to extrapolate upon Race Abuse ? There are other taunts and words of extreme cruelty ! In fact we humans can be bloody awful creatures sometimes, most times !

I briefly mentioned some time back, a girl's suicide. She'd been constantly teased, taunted and abused about her excessive weight ? 'Bumper Stickers' bearing - 'NO FAT CHICKS' were placed in her bag, amongst her things at work, and in evening college ? One can only imagine how lousy her life was, living under those appalling conditions ?

Back to Mr Goode's situation, in fact all of us who've ever been so targeted. Shouldn't we as mature adults, consign such boorish behaviour of an ignorant few, to the garbage bin, and just move on ?

Or is it a case where there are other more sinister 'things' afoot here, as my friend INDIVIDUAL has asked ? Not only involving the two protagonists, but some in the media, even politicians ?

Remember, it takes two hands to clap.
