Is the term 'jungle bunnies' when referring to black people racist?

I'm surprised that Mr Frost had to look it up. I would've thought that most people know this phrase? The report doesn't state what term he used for the white rioters in Manchester.

/// if any of the rioters are found to be jewish it would be ok to refer to them as 'sub-human y1ds fit only for the gas chamber'. ///
That is a different matter altogether, as well you know it.
Of course an innocent Jewish person would find this offensive.
Just as an innocent Black person would find it offensive if the words "Sub-human N1gs fit only for the slave boats", were used.

Why should they be offended? Because like I said it's an offensive term. How would you feel if you emigrated and everyone used the term "White devil" or something similar to put you and other whites down? Would you be okay with the term being used on just white criminals even though it's offensive to all whites?

/// If a gang of white hooligans were called 'White Scum' by someone in authority then I bet you would be complaining AOG. And not all the rioters were black ///
Read my post,
(((("For example one should feel free to call a white piece of scum who took part in these riots, any name whatsoever, be it racist or otherwise".))))
That takes care of your false accusation that "I would be complaining", therefore it seems you have lost your bet.
(((("don't deserve any consideration or any particular exception from name calling, be them white, black or brown".))))
And where pray did I say all the rioters were black? Yet another false accusation, it seems.

I thought I had explained this thoroughly, but obviously not in your case, so lets have another go.
/// How would you feel if you emigrated and everyone used the term "White devil" or something similar to put you and other whites down? Would you be okay with the term being used on just white criminals even though it's offensive to all whites? ///
If for example someone were to use the word "White Devil" or any other offensive words to say a white person, who had been convicted of a rape or murder for example, then I would not feel in the least offended, because I would be smart enough to realise that those words were not directed at me personally, and that the criminal deserved everything he had meted out to him.

No we're coming to it anotheoldgit "If for example someone were to use the word "White Devil" or any other offensive words to say a white person, who had been convicted of a rape or murder for example, then I would not feel in the least offended, because I would be smart enough to realise that those words were not directed at me personally, and that the criminal deserved everything he had meted out to him"
So you think everyone should think the way you do or you probably may even think everyone's more sensitive than you? Do you think the whole world should think the way you do or that the world is a tad sensitive and should really 'man up'?
