heard some snippets of KB saying that if Goodes thinks him being booed is racist, then it is.
stuff me sideways.
One bloke i know would write himself off and get kicked out whatever establishment he was making and arse of himself in, then always claim it was because he is black.
So according to KBs theory, he is correct.
Its not up to the individual antagonizing to determine if their actions are racist or not, its completely up to the individual on the receiving end. If I called you a stuffing prick, how is it fair if I determine whether I'm offending you or not? If you're offended, you're perfectly entitled to let people know.
There was a time when the N word was used and not considered offensive, how things have changed.
So old mate was correct when he claimed he was kicked out because he was black, solely because he said it was?
seroiusly? its not about about if he finds it offensive, its about automatically swallowing the race card.
let me give you another example.
last season we had an opposition player reported for attempting to strike one our player, repeatedly. luckily our player was a copper and knew how to counter the onslaught.
The offending player then got on facebook and claimed they were racially villified. Naturally everyone instantly condemned our players, even though this person admitted that it was not even the person they tried to belt up, that said it.. now i'm sure you are of the ilk that would believe this person and instantly put down your latte and cry blue murder, just because they said so - who is anyone else to say other wise hey, they are black so of course any accusation of racism must be so?
while i never found out what was actually said, i did determine that one of our players was indeed sledging the culprit, but funnily enough is actually darker skinned.....
but hey, they claimed it to be racially based so it must be?
