Why? PLease explain. Brebaz isnt incorect at all. Its just a race card tool. I have black friends, gets called a nigger by us all the time, he finds it amuzing and just banters back.
Brebaz has shown himself to be a racist prat in the past though TBH

I'll highlight the one word that makes that ok. You're not using it as a slur in that circumstance.

This it's entirely down to the context of the situation, the person saying it and the people hearing it.

If they want to go down the slavery route then they can fuck off. Just read about Baltimore, Ireland in 1631. Yes, it's on a smaller scale, but is it any different?
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

maybe because one white man calling him a nigger with 5 of his white mates behind him, he feels slightly out numbered

People actually being racist is quite a confusing prospect for me.
I grew up in a place that had white people as a minority, especially on the high street of the town (Slough). Therefore growing up, through schools or outside of schools a lot of my best mates were black. They were top blokes. Then again, they weren't poor scummy criminal people... They were just the same as me.
I think people sometimes get confused between 'scum' whether they're white or black, and just generalising of 'black people'.
You can't say that all this crime is being committed by black people - that's simply not true. A more accurate assumption is to say all the crime is being committed by poor / scummy people (both white and black).
Infact, look at the poor guy who was mugged (bleeding nose / face), the black guy in that video helps him up, it's the white guys who go over and rob his bag!!!
I always find when I go north / west (into rural areas) that the racism found in 'average' people goes up considerably. For example, when I see my mate in Cirencester, the comments they make about 'black' people are just absurd.

nothing to do with race, its benefit cuture to blame, all the wrong people sit around at home on benefits and breeding kids into the same situation.
i do agree though, there is a lot of non-white people there

and yes there are white people involved but the majority is black, you cant argue with that

To be honest, slur towards the Irish has the same reaction, so what's your point?

And the funny thing about it all, the people rounding up and selling the slaves to the Americans were themselves black. So get off your high horse and learn some history.

and i think turning it into a racism debate is a bad move, as this is exactly the card they will try to play to get out of it, and these kind of debates tend to be why punishments end up not being as harsh as they should be

I'm not surprised by your view point due to where you're from Steve, Worcestershire is all rich white folk in rural areas. You're probably statistically 64.5% racist in your genes.

Saw mostly white people in the liverpool/manc dramas, but we'll forget that shall we.
the areas in london are densely populated by alot of other cultures compared to other places so what do you expect.
