Rainier,
Stop bringing things on yourself & then blame others. It's not smart, it has not an ounce of integrity, it gets no-one anywhere, it only festers rather than heals. Accept the reality that there are morons on each side. If one of them offends then tell them & be done with it. Stop that incessant bleating of poor black fellow me ! There are more white fellows who cop crap everyday, they don't have an industry to back them with others' money.
In case you don't get my drift, what I mean is if someone is offensive than by all means let them have it but for crying out loud stop feigning indignation, it's too yesterday.

I find just so amusing when some people get upset over colloquial racist names or "blackfacing", when negroes in the USA quite commonly name their "gansta" pop groups "Niggerz with Attitude" or "Drug Runnerz", and then "sing" rap songs endorsing the virtues of "smacking their bitches up", selling drugs, or killing cops and killing white people.

Rainer quite true, years ago a young man turned up to play grand mum had his hand and he was met with pure filthy names.
As we both came from the bush Is tood with him and we started a life lf mateship.
This young Aboriginal proved in just minutes he was better than any of us on the two teams.
Went on to great things on the field and off.
But that was 40 years ago, the thread builds mountains out of nothing.

Never heard the term before !
Seems like a real over reaction.

The bottom line here is that whilst relevant legislation might possibly have a purpose in life, its been so poorly executed by the mindless muppets that frivolous complaints vastly exceed genuine ones. We possibly need some kind of deterrent for blatant racism, but we most certainly don't need to encourage mummys little prima-donnas to clog the system with their pathetic little sob stories.

When I came to this country nearly 50 years ago, I expected all sorts of insults and was quite disappointed when no one called me a Pommie Bastard. One Australian guy I had never met before, did say to me one day that there were a lot of good Englishmen down at Rookwood. Not knowing it was the largest cemetery in Sydney at the time, I believed him. When I found out what he was implying, I laughed out loud. I thought it was quite amusing. People are so sensitive and it is so easy to laugh it off and defuse any angst caused by either an intended or unintended insult. I have been called all sorts of names all my life and it hasn't worried me.

All you have to do is turn it into a joke. Like the time I was told to go and get fxxxxxd. So I just said "do you think I haven't tried ? He just then had to laugh.
