    Just to follow up on this one. ..I know Paul, and I can tell you all absolutely categorically that he does not have a racist bone in his body, and whatever the motives of the post , racism would not be among them.

    Great news. I never thought Mr C was right wing or a racist, I doubt any on BBS are.

    Its clear that no racists intent was made. Only craziest of political correct brainwashed half baked clowns would consider mentioning some ones ethnicity could in any way be considered as racist

    I'm sure he meant it ironically. Nevertheless it was a terrible way to title the thread. Just a misjudgement on his part I reckon. We all do it now and again.
    It's deleted now, maybe we should all move on.

    Not well played in my view, as this thread would be deleted too.
    For sure, it was right to take the action overnight but that in itself doesn't warrant a pat on the back for Admin.
    The original poster made a mistake & it doesn't need dragging up the day after. If there's an issue then Admin can take it up with the individual & reiterate the rules if they feel there's a general issue (which I'm sure there isn't).

    You would have to be fairly blinkered to think.anything less . And to trivialise the issue with a laughter either shows a lack of respect a lack of intellect or both.

    Just the sort of political correctness thats destroyed the uk

    It was clearly "ironic" which is always hard to do on the internet, post should be deleted and nothing else said, accusing someone of being racist based on that post is just daft.

    I haven’t accused anyone. I’ve said how the post was viewed by an objective observer.

    Some political correctness is just silly and undermines the cause it seeks to further.
    To say it's destroyed the UK is just barmy. I can think of a hundred and one things more destructive in the UK than that.

    You've spent the days since you used your racist term trying to rewrite history, tyrone, much to everyone on here's amusement. We all know what you said and no amount of deflection or 'fake news' crying can undo that. I don't lack intellect, but I certainly lack respect for someone who thinks it's okay to use that kind of language, then flatly deny it afterwards.

    So are you saying that the term chink isn't racist? Because it definitely is racist, particularly in the context of "get these out of my club" or whatever your exact wording was.

    While I agree with every word you have said, it's a complete waste of time. You'd have more success teaching mandarin to a goldfish.

    Have you forgotten already? He was sat next to a Chinese person at the time who he was imitating. It's all fine.
