Outrage….. What outrage???

It seems that calling a black guy 'a monkey' is OK , 'cause that, supposedly, isn't particularly insulting in Indian culture, but calling an Indian a 'donkey', which is not particularly insulting in British culture is, apparently, an outrage.

I think it's an outrage, it's completely unfair to donkeys.

Well summarised Hoggy.

Its a prime example of 'small country' mentality. India is becoming an economic superpower and are World Champions, but they still can't drop the old mentality of always thinking they're victims. Had the comment been made about an Australian or SA side, it would pass without much comment at all. In India, politicians use it to deflect from the corruption crisis.
