A racist with an attempt at humour, pity the joke was as crap as their intelligence. His post wasn't racist, more taking the piss out of racists. It went right over your head, didn't it? Mine too. Perhaps you can elaborate and explain the finer detail. This is more or less how it first appeared to me. "That's because it is no longer a white mans team but a niggers team." Perhaps, as you share the same humour, you could also share the joke and let us better understand the motivations of deadguy3 (and yourself I suppose). The post I was referring to was "yes the change from caucazoid to negroid is quite a change.", which IMO is not a racist remark. Since the original discussion was the fact that the post was pointing out that the wrong picture and year were shown in the link it became apparent because in one the driver was white and in the other the driver was black (Hamilton). AFAIK no-one has used the phrase "That's because it is no longer a white mans team but a niggers team." other than yourself, which seems to say a bit more about you than my post says about me. The only two people to have used the n-word in rasf1, other than the usual trolls, are yourself and Lardboy. Puts you in pretty good company, doesn't it? Bigots aren't used to people like Hamilton, or soon to be Stanley Cup champion |
Hamilton's way with the press can only be described as "eloquent".
Ray's the same way. Speaks eloquently, plays well. He keeps it simple.
In fact, the press isn't interested in his colour or creed at all.
Not far from what happens with Lewis.
To think that Lewis Hamilton was racing in GP2, and Nelson Piquet Jr. called a
press conference just to inform the press that he had nothing to say!
That's an ass! (is Piquet another word for ASS?)

Looks much better, more like the West Mclarens. Isn't it just unpainted carbon fibre but with the sponsors decals on? If they are trying new aero parts they may not have had time (or just bothered) to paint them. I read somewhere that McLaren use a special paint process to get the metallic effect. The Vodaphone name would take minutes to put on in the garage. Regards, Andrew |

I'd rather not try and understand the motivation of someone who needs to define a person by the colour of their skin for the sake of a weak joke. If that's what makes Deadguy3 and Paul-B happy I feel sorry for them, however changing someones attitude to racial issues is difficult as they often don't see a problem with racial discrimination. Show me a single post here, ever, where I have defined a person by the colour of his or her skin. You can't, of course, because there hasn't been one in all the 8 or more years I've subscribed to rasf1. |
comment was defining someones skin colour - so in effect you have
agreed that someone can be defined by the colour of their skin even if
you've not said it.

Paul said no such thing. |
Do, go away.

friends may have an attitude you'd not like to associate yourself
with. If you wish to put your head in the sand and hide from such
issues be my guest, I find such attitudes offensive and don't see why
I should be refrained from standing up against racism.

Paul said no such thing. Yes he did if you read through the original posts. Do, go away. Why because you don't like to find out that some people you consider friends may have an attitude you'd not like to associate yourself with. If you wish to put your head in the sand and hide from such issues be my guest, I find such attitudes offensive and don't see why I should be refrained from standing up against racism. |
racism. Standing up against racism is good. Fuck off and find some to
stand up against.

You are neither refrained nor restrained from standing up against racism. Standing up against racism is good. Fuck off and find some to stand up against. Ah yes, abuse, the resort of someone with no argument or anything else worth saying. |
Let's be clear about this - abusing you has nothing to do with racism.
I have no idea what your race might be, nor do I care. I am abusing
you because you are stupid. So if you want to accuse me of stupidism,
feel free.

Trolling for racism - something quite worth ignoring IMHO.
