Racisim

[potterone]

Can anyone answer this for me, how can a school allow coloured kids to call white kids every name under the sun including white b******s, but they won't allow white kids to call them, i still think that's racist, does anyone else think so?

Of cours it is Rascist, but we seem to be heading down a road where it is one law for British whites and another law for everyone else.

It's not acceptable that ANY children address each other like that. Can you give me a link to the story please as I find it hard to believe it's as "black and white" as you describe?
It's not just racist, it's rude and ignorant for EITHER ethnic group to identify someone's race, then add the word b*****d to the end of it, and teachers should be rolemodelling polite behaviour for everyone.

It just shows where political correctness has got this Country.............give a hand and they take an arm........and now we're well on the road to REVERSE discrimination.

I think this political correctness has taken a sour turn. It does seem that white Brits are having to tread carefully these days. It's only a matter of time before it starts to change though. The law is currently always on the side of the 'ethnic minorities', but it won't be able to stay that way.

But Champagne....the white Brits will be an "Ethnic minority" the way we are going !

By virtute of the fact that black children are black they can never be classed as racist. They could be prejudiced but never racist. That doesn't excuse the fact that it is disgusting behaviour by any child/person regardless of their heritage.

Briar - black people have been charged and successfully prosecuted for racism in the UK. Here is an example:

09/01, Ross Parker, 17, Peterborough

A White youth attacked by a gang of Asians in Peterborough as he walked home with his girlfriend. In December 2002, Shaied Nazir, 22, Ahmed Ali Awan, 22, and Sarfraz Ali, 25, were all found guilty of murder and sentenced to life for what the judge termed a 'racist killing'.

Seems too many people believe anything without any substantial evidence of the claim. I'm sure some people write,just to stir up hatred.
If the story is true,and reported,then i'm sure action would be taken

[squirelpoo]

i can understand why so much hate is always stired up , im not against black white or indifferent, music is very influential at the moment, songs which contain the "n" word and have rappers refering others as "n" its no wonder why children get confused ,as to whats right and wrong, schools need a refresher course maybe

I don't believe you.

Potterone, I've just read your post and let me say this........there is NO such thing as COLOURED KIDS!
It shocks me more that your complaining about racism but yet you are using a term more racist than anything!!!!
