What makes you a Racist?

[American FLEET FAN No1]

I used to carry a Gollywog about by his right ear when i was a nipper.......i used to eat Jam and Marmalade out of a jar with a Gollywog on it.....i used to eat BLACK jacks when i was a kid...Does that make me a racist????

I sat next to the first Indian boy to be Educated in Gravesend at school............helped him with his English.......why me????......because the Teachers knew i was brought up with high Christian Morals by my parents! I worked alongside many of them in my working life in England without ever refering to their colour in conversation or arguement..........i had to endure Indians sitting at our food table talking in their own Language.......shutting me out...... I tried telling them that it was not a polite thing to do because i couldn't understand them........but they knew what we were talking about!

If all this makes me a Racist.....THEN I'M [****!!****] PROUD TO BE A RACIST!!!!!

[Colin, Germany]

Gollywogs were not considered racist in those days. Some people may have taken offence, but, if so, they did not make their feelings known. I certainly do not know of anyone taking offence at them at that time.

 

It is indeed polite to talk in the language that everyone present understands, if there is one. This is an issue of etiquette and not racism.

[Uncle Urchin]

we've done this one to death on another thread.....

 

the end result of which I discovered that I was a racist and also ..(from another thread).....a facist....

 

so I've bought a copy of mein kampf....

Bloody faces! I hate 'em. Scumbags come over here, take over our heads and expect us to talk through them (with the exception of UU who talks through somewhere else). Peel them off and send them all back. It's the only language they understand...

[Uncle Urchin]

Oi Lancelot....wot the fck was all that s'possed to mean...

 

'take over our heads'

 

'peel their faces orf'

 

sounds like a sci fi 'b movie'....

Just making a childish point about spelling the word 'fascist' right and then running with the joke in your own preferred idiom.

 

Satire and bloody good satire at that. So yar boo sucks, Unc. <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Isn't that a bloody irritating Indian musical instrument?

[mala_D]

...or,

 

A sylvan deity or demigod, represented as part man and part goat, and characterized by riotous merriment and lasciviousness.

 

 

Come to think of it...that desribes UU fairly well!

I well remember encountering a 'local' form of racism, when I was lost in South Wales and went into a local village shop for directions.

 

Two old 'biddies' yabbering a way in English.

 

The moment I opened my mouth, they started talking in that bloody Yaccy Da language.

I've heard of one or two instances of this in Wales before, but I have to say (well I don't have to but I'm going to) that in half a dozen holidays over many years, and participation in three archaeological digs in different parts of Wales, I have never experienced anything but friendliness and an interest in what I'm doing. I have been fed in people's houses, fed in pubs, offered lifts when I was out for a walk, driven home (to my campsite) by the pub guvnor, taken on pub crawls round the valley, invited into a pub quiz team and generally made a temporary local. I watched England lose to Portugal in a valley pub (Euro 2000) and was generally sympathised with.

 

I must say I am quite fond of Wales and the Welsh.

 

I know what you mean about the language though, it is a bit silly.

[Uncle Urchin]

its just a few radical nutters....we can't sell in certain areas of wales as the fckers refuse to speak english and the welsh speaking sheep sh*ggers will never sell DG in a month of sundays....

 

I recall a few years ago that these loons were actually burning down english owned holiday homes.....fckin maniacs....lets take the place over and have done with it.....

 

I'll have the south and south west...more dosh there and the welsh crumpets up for anything....

cant say I agree with Vis....every Taff I've ever met has talked me into a mogodon like trance and that aint easy........ <img src="/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Funnily enough the majority of my time in Wales has been spent in the south and west.....
