    Cant take a lecture from you about morals.
    Would love to hear the revelation you have deduced from being asked if you are Roses agent.

    Why would you ask if I'm his agent? Again, what's your point, caller?

    He doesn't agree with you sticking up for him speaking out about racial abuse and it should be brushed under the carpet.

    In fairness he's from Keighley. Once they get electricity and the newspapers it'll be a whole new world for them.

    WINNER-sums up my thoughts as well.
    Whilst @simons (woking bantam)@simons (woking bantam) may have gone too far with his description of Rose as a WLB I think that if Rose really has had enough and it was potentially retriggering past mental health issues he is wise to seek treatment again.

    Revealing:

    'Why are you supporting Rose, are you his agent or something' suggesting that I'd only support him if there was something in it for me. Not true. Never true. Reveals more about you and what you think motivates people.

    Crass:

    Thick, stupid, inaccurate, misjudged.

    Where has anyone on either thread suggested he shouldn't be allowed to speak about the racism and that it should be swept under the carpet though?

    The whole RACIST thing has got way OUT OF HAND.
    Particularly the P**i 'thing' !!
    WHO seriously objects to being addressed or called a BRIT, SCOT, AUSSIE, DANE, YANK etc ??
    I don't. And yes ....... simple well intentioned banter, or humour is OFTEN seen as racist by people of no relation or link to the person it's aimed at.
    My idea of racism are the words beforehand or after that really hurt.

    This thread has run its course as being City related. It is now in the General Chat forum.

    All about the context Ron. Mind you, many people are too stupid to understand what that means.

    Having just edited Ron's post to remove a word he used which is widely regarded as a racial slur to those of Pakistani heritage, I fully understand its context. Unless of course, I'm one of the stupid ones!

    You're assuming the post is aimed at you. Quite why i don't know. The post was in reply to @RonnieBrown@RonnieBrown. If you are tagged in it its meant for you.

    But @Dennis@Dennis ................ It's only racial to those who wish to view it that way. :(
    The 'stupid' ones are those who buy into that !
    As I claimed earlier ............ PC is getting out of hand.

    One of the problems with racism is it gets forgotten and swept aside far too often - even in this thread we've ended up talking about how some condescending berk's business and loss of customers rather than the racist incidents in recent weeks.
