Foreign guests at Diwali celebration in Pretoria called 'coolies and k*****s'

[ponder]

I dunno, every time I've been told to go back to Pakistan/India, it's not the way I dress or speak that they are pertaining to. Maybe it's the size of my shoes. Must be that.

Dude I told you how many times to wear that suicide vest under your clothes and not over but you don't wanna listen, what more can I do.

The recording were not from the beginning on the incodent. Maybe not everyone keeps their phone videos on 24/7 just in case an incident happens

How inconvenient/convenient then. Why is it that these words are only used by the evil racist, when the camera is off? Why was none of those words used the rest of the time? And don't say it's 'cos of the camera. You can see the recording is done on the sly, not in his face.

The issue here are the claims of racial slurs, NOT inferred racism/feels. Maybe you were told to go back, 'cos you are or were being an arsehole, regardless of your race/colour?

As long as it's justified , and framed in the right way....I don't see why they would get overly upset with a refusal. Heck, in UK on Guy Fawkes it sounds like a war zone. And New years.

This is South Africa. Every negative response to any person of color, is seen as racism and shat out all over social media straight away.

It sank in. Maybe they have d0es nrighbors, and suspected they would pitch up to cause covfefe, without finding out the full story first

She knew that fireworks is huge problem, irritation and danger. It's mostly illegal, burns/kills people, traumatizes pets and in general is a huge disturbance. But they went ahead and did it anyway...with that nice feeling in the back of their heads, that anyone that complains can be trumped by the most powerful card in the deck...

Fireworks should be banned. Worldwide. No exceptions. There are less polluting, less dangerous alternatives. Use them.

Perfect example of whats wrong with the world these days.... you don't like something so it must be banned. Never mind the millions of people world wide who enjoy it, use it responsibly, follow the respective laws etc... nah, you don't like it so ban it. What you should do is STFU and let them enjoy it, it doesn't harm you. Or bitch about it, but let them enjoy it, it doesn't harm you. And no, a little startle because of a bang is not harm.

Are you truely incapable of seeing how wrong that point of view is?


I'm sure you'll then go on about the injuries ect. So what, if someone is an idiot and does something stupid and injures themselves or even someone else that is their problem and they should face all the full consequences for it. Stop punishing everyone for actions of individuals.

Fixed that for you to make it more accurate.

Not surprised that this is coming from you...

 

[Mar Vin]

so its fine to be racist towards another if they are doing wrong

mybb mentality

Correct @I.am.Sam ...as you can see. The biggest issue for folk here is the fireworks. No issue with the slurs directed at the ppl involved.

Grown men nagging over fireworks.

My feline friend and most loyal of wingmen, Mr. Tigger approves this man's outrage and his use of language.

Also, to the prepubescent plofstof pandering p0es who decided to ignite a mini-nuke right next to my place on Sunday night, you've had your fun, but I've got my 1.5Watt blue Laser ready this time so try that again and the next celebration you'll be having is National Braille Day on January the 4th.

I think you're missing the point. The discussion has diverted from an alleged racist tirade by some guy who is unable to express himself in a civil manner to one of discussing the event which led to the tirade in the first place. Would you like to request a poll on whether users on the site condemn blatant racism to satisfy your requirement for outrage or are people not allowed to discuss the context?

Just because your brain can only do one thing at a time does not mean the rest of us cannot be outraged at multiple things.

Its simple the racist is a ****

The person letting of fireworks in a residential area also a ****.

Simple.

What a well thought out intelligent response.

I gave possible reasons already. What's the difference between on the sky Vs in his face?

I already told you, it's shoe size. Must be, why else would you tell someone to go back to india. And why it happens so often. People are wearing the wrong show sizes.

This is South Africa. There are a lot of racists here. And they often don't have a clue as to how racist they are, and say things which are patently racist ....and is then defended by their fellow racists. They come in all colours too.

Yeah, making assumptions. So let me do the same. She knew the racist ******** next door would find any excuse to come over from next door, throw out some insults and cause a fuss. And he complied

The illegal letting off of fireworks is a matter of record.

Still waiting for someone to highlight the racism in that video. Kinda convenient that the allegation was only said while the recording wasn't going. Quite the coincidence. Makes for a fantastic headline though.

 

[Aghori]

"Go back to India" is not racist in the slightest. It's only perceived as racism by that curry-guzzling poephoel of an uncivilised aunty.

If you read, it says there was flyers passed around. So folk could have cried over this before hand.

I'm talking to you Craig...no need for me to think much in any response to you.

It's not? No Surprise....MyBB wreaks of *bleep* *bleep*...

 

[Mar Vin]

So that's a normal expression you use when you come across an arsehole. "Go back to India". Ok

@Hamish McPanji to the majority of folk here that is pretty much normal.
