'We r'

This leads into what I have said before and that is, if I call somebody a black barsteward, I'm not calling him a batsteward because he's black, that's just the subscriptive word to go along with it and the insult is in the word barsteward(obviously not that word exactly but the one it has replaced), just like calling Rafa Spanish is not an insult but the insult is in the fact they think he looks like a waiter.

------------------------------------------------------------

Spanish is a nationality, Black is refering to someones skin colour, no as in your example why not just call someoe a barsteward? why do you have to point out the persons colour? i don't see anytime you would need to refer to someones colour before searing or remarking on or about them
------------------------------------------------
I know Spanish is a nationality. I know a skin colour can be black, I don't see why I need to be told that.

Why not just call him a barsteward? Well the discriptive adds to it. It's the first things as humans we recognise, it's how we identify, a descriptive. People want to take that away from us and say, hey there's no difference, we're all the same, well no, we're not the same, some are black, some are white, some are Asian. Sure we are equals in terms on being humans but we're not the same and if people could accept that, then there wouldn't be so much created racism.

I white person is white, a black person is black, stating so is a discription, not an insult, unless of course the person feels insulted by his colour.

The views people hold on each race need to be tackled and people shouldn't feel afraid to use a discriptive word. Yeah, I wouldn't use it but that's simply due to not wanting anybody to think I am racist as I know how the media have brainwashed many and now we have people shouting racism at every opportunity.

If you are describing someone then there are better ways to do that then to point out the persons colour.

In some cases yes, in some no.

Policeman - "did you see who stole your wallet?!"

Guy "Yes, it was that guy over there standing with those other two guys"

Policeman "which one?"

Guy "The black barsteward"

Now I'm giving an extreme example here, so don't take offence, this isn't something I'd say.

Anyhow, the guy has described the guy as black, the policeman now nows exactly which one he is and the guy has called him a barsteward because he stole his phone, not because he's black.

Spanish is a nationality, Black is refering to someones skin colour, no as in your example why not just call someoe a barsteward? why do you have to point out the persons colour? i don't see anytime you would need to refer to someones colour before searing or remarking on or about them

The impression this give me is that you feel one is ok and the other not. If that's true, would you care to explain why?

If Bale had been black, this would have been deemed racist. I find this strange. So black people should be offended by bananas? Surely allowing this to become offensive gives weight to some of the people who do it and thus it creates racism?

Anything intellectually stimulating is boring to you as you don't have the intelligence to hold it.
