[QUOTE="RoyalBlueStuey, post: 83747"] Ah that old one... Yes. Yes, it is totally different. Folks with ginger hair aren't a minority race facing prejudice and discrimination. The police don't pick on tall lads 'cause all tall people are criminals. It's all about context. You make a jibe about the colour of someone's skin you are calling down all the other **** that person has had to deal with, you are putting yourself in with the 'Us' against his/her 'Them'. Calling someone a black ******* is racism...saying it's just the same as any other insult is sweeping it under the carpet, people ridiculing those who've got the balls to complain about racism is just like being complicit is the original insult.
