I don't think the majority of "blacks" are too bothered about the term TBH, many seem to use the term themselves. It is almost like a sector of the population is trying to make amends for our poor treatment of the inhabitants of other countries over the years by bending over backwards to be polite and avoid offence. It seems to me though that they are pi$$ing off the rest of the country and also the people they are trying not to offend. But I could have it all wrong.

The pc apologists just keep drawing attention to these things completely unneccessarily. Thet just make fools of themselves, and demonstrate their lack of understanding.

As a sunderland SAFC fan i wonder how much longer well be allowd to call our selfs the black cats or red and white army.
I dont know if this is true some 1 may have been filling me with crap but i was told that pakistan means Pure land or something along those lines. So when u call some one of asian decent a Paki you are kind of calling them pure one.

If people of Afro-Caribbean origin dislike the term "black", then why do we have the MOBO awards?
As an aside, a DJ has boycotted the MOBO awards because he thinks it is inherently racist to have them at all. If someone tried to start up the MOWO awards, people would be apoplectic in their rush to denounce them.

Spot on Jerome Ive been saying that for ages. I emailed the BBC to complain when they created 1 extra and marketed it as a station for black music (its now changed to 'street music' - but not coz of my complaint) as I said it discriminated against caucasian, chinese, mexican, italian, azerbajan etc etc unless they had a station for every ethnic group...
I also get confuddled when black folk call each other ****** as a term of endearment but if I used it I could lose my job....
The worlds gone mad.

I only found out last week why the gollywog symbol had been removed from robertsons jam jars.
Illegal immigrants were cutting them out and using them for fake ID cards.

Arsene Wenger was asked about 3 seasons ago why he keeps buying black players to which he replied:
" I buy the players I need for my team, the colour of their skin matters not but it is true that black footballers are more athletic and quicker".
....(words to that effect).
Racist?? No, just stating a fact.

When Chris Eubanks was asked, on a talk show "Are you a man of ethics?" he calmly replied, "No. I`m a man of Thuthex."
As for the 'racist jokes corner', I`m pretty sure every race, creed and nationality make jokes about other races etc. Some people need to lighten up a little, lifes too short to moan and winge about what`s pc correct and what`s not.

yeah, and i'm pretty sure that all races and creeds abuse children and hit women but that doesn't make it right.
as for the eubank joke - i quite like it, and as an additional bonus it isn't rathitht either.
