Its like the use of the "n" word its ok and not rascist if used by a black person but rascist if uttered by a non black stinks of hypocrisy! What next? complaints that he called be ginger/scottish/fat/skinny/welsh/irish etc etc!!

Get on with it and kick the boy in the nuts its a mans game ffs!!!!

It is probably for publicity like you say, but im not that against it.

I hate when black guys use the 'N' word. Its not a positive term when they use it. Its an insult to what their ancestors went through.

Also, allowing one group to use the word, whilst banning another will always lead to trouble. It always leads to the 'if they can say it why cant we' argument. Especially if some of the folk permitted to say it are not actually relevant.

For example, imagine the 'yld army' was actually the 'n army', but 90% of the folk singing it were white.

mitre its the same as the cynical attitude towards the old firm songs whereas Thistle fans are just using it ironically!

Is like when we sing paddy McCourt's fènian army.

It ain't clever but its not ding anyone any harm. Its a good wee chant that brings a sense of togetherness to the fans, like a us against them mentality which has always been a large part of being a football.

'the society of black lawyers'

Oh the irony.

This is ripe for a south park p1ss take.

Political correctness is driven by the biggest diseases in our society, politicians and and lily livered dogooders.

In all honesty, can any of the old old firm fans say that they didn't relish out chanting the opposition when they sang their "songs of defiance". (apologies for using a term coined by the clown Hateley).

Government and dogooders interfere too much in our lives, it is time to tell them to GTF. Unless someone is actually physically harmed then the Govt, Police and holier than thou whankers should just butt out.

The EPL epitomises everything that is wrong with the game of football. I fully endorse the the clamp down on blatant racism but can't help thinking that the this latest publicity stunt is a self-promotion job by a group of greedy lawyers.

I'm White, Irish, Catholic and Fat but have no intention of starting a 'Society' and take no offence to being called any of the above

The first case ever when the race Relations Law was introduced was a Black lawyer suing a garage because their dog only barked at Black people.

He lost the case and many such suits have also resulted in failure. However, be aware, the PC brigade are in the ascendancy (look at the Scottish Sectarian Act) and we will soon lose our right to voice our opinions an anything.

The time has come to tell our politicians to stop stealing from us, start telling us the truth and stop interfering in our lives.

Only problem is, no matter what party, they are all at it.

Time for revolution.

Rickboy - what sickens me about the p/c brigade is that they seem more concerned about so called 'human rights' of low-lifes - meanwhile old people are frightened in their houses at night or too scared to go out and nobody gives a sh it

The society for black lawyers.

They sound an all inclusive bunch.

I wonder what would be said if you had a society for white lawyers
Would that be racist?

posted on 9/11/12

This is obviously a tricky area nowadays.

But I think it comes down to this.

If the use of a term is racist or derogatory when used by one section of society to describe another, then that's it, no one should use it. "Owning it" is nonsense.

Makes it a lot simpler.

Is it an infringement of freedom of speech? Perhaps, but if it saves just one incident of trouble, which right now football does not need (especially the EPL), then it is worth it.

That's it I've changed my mind I am going to start the 'White, Irish, Catholic, Fat, non-ginger' Society.

Membership £100 - send cheques to IfUNo PO Box 100 - make payable to 'cash'

I also find it disgusting that people are receiving prison sentences now for posting jokes online.

Its getting to the point where we're not allowed to say anything

Banning words and phrases ain't the answer. Pierre need to grow thicker skins, grow more tolerant or just rise above it.
