Much less than you'd think, given that is considered racist over here in the UK unlike the US. *NM* snoopcester Send a noteboard - 15/04/2011 04:26:54 PM

Re: Pretty much my reaction. Gaps - 15/04/2011 07:26:22 PM 852 Views
"Paki" is used self-referentially in the States without being a slur. Cool your jets. Ghavrel - 15/04/2011 08:07:26 PM 1040 Views
Wait, what? ßelals Girl - 15/04/2011 08:12:34 PM 897 Views

Ah, must be why I don't remember it ßelals Girl - 16/04/2011 06:23:30 AM 748 Views
The Riders were so freaking awesome/scary. *NM* Ghavrel - 16/04/2011 06:39:35 AM 345 Views
Re: Why would you think that you know it's a slur in the UK, but I wouldn't? Gaps - 15/04/2011 08:47:50 PM 766 Views
I was talking about Aisha, not you. I don't know where you live--I thought you were European. Ghavrel - 15/04/2011 09:51:10 PM 814 Views
Re: Just to point out: Gaps - 16/04/2011 01:28:01 AM 765 Views
Am I the only one who sees a difference in this? Ghavrel - 16/04/2011 01:49:49 AM 913 Views
You are correct. Your interlocutors are stupid. *NM* Dan - 16/04/2011 02:25:56 AM 403 Views
Obviously killing people is worse than calling them names. Tim - 16/04/2011 08:29:22 AM 758 Views

G/J? *NM* Ghavrel - 17/04/2011 01:27:02 AM 368 Views
I think that makes various forms of discrimination less serious. Ghavrel - 17/04/2011 01:28:37 AM 727 Views
39 views? It's been like four minutes! STOP USING INTERNET EXPLORER, PEOPLE. *NM* Ghavrel - 17/04/2011 01:40:45 AM 336 Views
Umm...Not by the Pakistanis in VT Danu - 16/04/2011 11:30:10 PM 715 Views
Interesting. I have not seen that here. *NM* Ghavrel - 16/04/2011 11:50:27 PM 318 Views
Much less than you'd think, given that is considered racist over here in the UK unlike the US. *NM* snoopcester - 15/04/2011 04:26:54 PM 301 Views
Even aside from the use of the word "Paki"... Tim - 15/04/2011 07:36:41 PM 743 Views
Well, they aren't racially British, so "anti-British racism" is by definition inapplicable here. Ghavrel - 15/04/2011 08:04:36 PM 819 Views

New Zealand doesn't count. Ghavrel - 15/04/2011 08:36:58 PM 787 Views
Methinks you have a rather narrow definition of "race". Tim - 15/04/2011 11:14:51 PM 1025 Views
I disagree. Ghavrel - 15/04/2011 11:34:44 PM 823 Views
No, you just distorted the word "race" out of all recognition for legal definition purposes. Tom - 16/04/2011 12:39:26 AM 765 Views
Does the existence of a British race even exist by that definition? *NM* Ghavrel - 16/04/2011 01:44:38 AM 318 Views
No, it doesn't. Tom - 16/04/2011 03:25:00 AM 795 Views
By giving... its legal definition in the UK! (At least for the purposes of the Equality Act.) Tim - 16/04/2011 08:51:58 AM 870 Views
Yes, my point was that giving legal definitions was a corruption of common sense. Tom - 16/04/2011 08:26:48 PM 732 Views
It doesn't sound very natural to me to say "OMG you're being nationalityist!" *NM* Tim - 17/04/2011 12:13:41 AM 482 Views
I don't understand why you're so upset about this. rebelaessedai - 16/04/2011 03:34:23 AM 745 Views
I'm not really. Tim - 16/04/2011 08:26:55 AM 837 Views

The parents seem to be the problem more than the child random thoughts - 15/04/2011 06:15:08 PM 809 Views
Yeah, My kid would also be in trouble if he behaved this way. Beqi - 15/04/2011 08:13:50 PM 747 Views
