So ask one of these guys why they find the word 'paki' offensive. If you are really interested surely that would be the best way to find out?

Sorry mate but that is gibberish. If you can't be bothered to write something that actually makes sense I can't be bothered to try and decipher it

There is racism is every single Country in the World. There has always been and it will always be so. Sad fact of life.
To the OP's vid, whatever the colour of the person who was spitting, it is a dispicable and disrespectful act. He deserved all he got. Sorry. I would have slapped, whoever it was if they did that to me, no matter what the colour.
Certain other Countries are much less tolerant than we are here. It's about time people just learned to get on with each other and respected each others faith, colour etc.

Personally I feel, regardless of political or any other views, spitting on another person is absolutely disgusting. If you are unable to argue against someone sensibly then walk away, you don't spit on them no matter what. That said, the BNP guy really hasn't helped himself or the credibility of his party.
Regardless of who started it, they have both shown themselves up as thugs in my opinion. You can't go around spitting on people because you don't like what they say or stand for, but on the other hand, kicking a man while he's down..... It would be almost expected for someone to lash out but it went a bit further than that, and coming from a politician as well.
Looking at it neutrally, both 'sides' came out looking as bad as each other tbh.

i see my offending post was removed. i dont care if your white, black,asian, or red indian. if you spit on someone you're a scummy ******. and if you call me a pikey potatoe eating thick irish paddy i wouldnt be offended. you guys need to grow up. this pc race card is played all too often. if one of our royal family can use the word then it's ok for me.

Parked up at a set of lights, two drunk lads come out of a bar and one decides to sit on the bonnet of my car and bounce up and down.
Politely ask him to move as they lights went green but get no response, so move off and slam brakes and he is off the bonnet and his mate takes offence to this and the first word out of his mouth as he kicks my car door "PAKI".
As for the other one lucky I didnt run him over and I was so very tempted, so forgive me If I get fcukin touchy if someone calls me a "paki" and to anyone on here who thinks its not offensive say it to me at an show and I will give you a slapping. You know what my car looks like so quite easy to find me

and i guess you asian guys dont have names for us white blokes, that you use when in the comapny of others
dont gimme that crap banny, one is as bad as the other ffs. i had 30 odd years of being called an orange barstward when growing up in Northern Ireland, where they killed you because you couldn't sing "the Sash" or recite "the Rosary". back then it was catholics or taigs(teagues in case you think i cant spell it right) as we called them and the prods who kicked off and again one was as bad as the other. we did our arguing with 9mm and semtex for a helluva lot less than spitting in someones face.
so get of your high horse and don't take every racial slur as derogotory. had he come up to the BNP guy shook his hand and had a talk with the guy i wouldnt have referred to him in that way. the fact that the chavvy, scummy ****** decided he and his mates didnt like a "white" guy on their turf , was very visible in the way the walked over. there was only one thing on their mind. had it been me i would have continued to batter the **** outta him ,MP or no.

Some of what he says does make sense (I'm a Paki(stani) btw). The word 'paki' does have a derogatory connotation but come on it's not the end of the world if someone uses it. I have used it myself and my friends both white and non white have used it in jest. Then again perhaps my skin is a bit thicker than most. We're carping on about words and terms and forgetting the real issues political and social.
Anyhow **** this for a game of soldiers where's Alexis whatshername!

Thank **** for common sense. A rock in the midst of the maelstrom. Einstein i luv you mate. you're so right, we get hung up on inconsequentialities (i like that word) and lose sight of the big picture.

Forget the ***** in video, I dont associate nor do I have time for people like that. I treat everyone I come into contact with respect, so expect the same in return. Is that really too much to ask for bigsinky?
It is not about getting on my high horse, just experessing how I feel about being called that and the truth of the matter is alcohol removes a person restraint and their true colours are visible.
BTW bigsinky era is my older bro

i am not racist but as i have said before it doesnt matter what colour your skin is, behaviour like that or treating your property with disrepect is not on. Do i regret my Paki comment, ok with hindsight yes i do but to make such a mountain out of a molehill come on. i totally agree and if i was in the car with you i would had helped you beat the living sh1te out of those chavvy scummy white boys. i just hate everyone the same. I am from Northern Ireland and a thick irish paddy what do i know?

Indeed mate! I'm not condoning name calling but sticks and stones and all that. Furthermore by villifying the use of the word 'paki' and attempting to gag people is only going to inflame the issue. Logical extrapolation would suggest people will be more inclined to use it and not less. It's akin to when we were little kids, we would always do the exact opposite of what we're told.
