I suggest, Matt, that the only way to confirm it is for yourself to go to downtown Harlem - bare chested no less - and bandy the term "black c**t" round. Let us know how you get on.
John Terry Page 7
I would suggest Detroit, Chicago, south-central Los Angeles or Washington, DC, as Harlem isn't all that scary these days. Bill Clinton kept his office there until recently.
Worst travel guide ever.

Could I interest you in a Mediterranean cruise on the Costa Concordia?
Quote: Matthew Stott @ July 14 2012, 2:12 PM BSTWell I wasn't talking about the case specifically either, I was talking about whether it's racist to throw 'black c**t' at someone as an insult. The very fact it's being thrown as an insult answers the question.
Yeah... not really. In some ways that is quite a racist attitude in itself. Not intentionally so, I appreciate that.

I knew our relationship was on the rocks.
Is the racism implied or only inferred? Are there no explicit racists out there to prosecute?

With respect, I find myself a little offended that you're basically calling me unintentionally racist, even if you do try and sugar the pill with a little light condescension.
I couldn't make myself any clearer, if you don't agree, then there we go. Let's leave it, there's no point in making the same points over and over.

Racism in furred?
Are you calling my dog racist?
I think some people must be slightly misunderstanding what Stott's saying.

I'm not exactly sure what there is to misunderstand, or am I being thick?
I think we're all one IQ point thicker after discussing John Terry for 7 pages!

I can understand why people get offended for being called racist. John Terry presumably felt the same. Whether he is or not, isn't I guess for you and me to judge, as frankly we know nothing except what has been reported, but hopefully your reaction there gives some insight into the issue? As I have said I have no idea if he is or was. I wasn't intentionally being condescending by the way, but yes your point was clear, but debate is ok surely? Please don't be offended I certainly don't think you are racist.
MarcP isn't a racist
most of the slaves on his writing plantations are ******** and the rest are ******** and he has his perverted way with all of them.
The proof readers are shit though!
