We are going around in circles. I'm trying to bring common sense to the issue and many of you guys keep dragging it back into darkness and ignorance. You must have a hidden agenda against indigenous people because you are not interested in discussing solutions to their problems. GaggIing people from uttering common and harmless words is not a solution.
Common sense? Sure…..

I don’t think Pearce was hard done by. I was arguing your point that that’s no way Leniu deserved the same length suspension. You’d no doubt feel differently if you supported a different team.

No not a lynch mob in the street but take a look at social media since this has kicked off. Thousands of comments from people saying they’re standing with Leniu and that Ezra (or worse indigenous people in general) is a soft cock for speaking up about racism. No Leniu isn’t responsible for the shit other people have posted or said, but if he doesn’t racially abuse another player and then carry on like a f**kwit after this doesn’t happen.

Fair punishment. The NRL had no choice. Like I said could have been longer.
I don't have a problem with the punishment FYI

And no I wouldn't feel different. He has played one game for us so I have no affinity for him.

No doubt you are a racist mate.
Prove it. I believe in God. Therefore everyone is created equal. Therefore racism is impossible for me. You on the other hand believe in evolution so somewhere in your sick mind, you wonder if indigenous people have evolved as much as you. " but just be kind to them and don't hurt their feelings". There's no words available to describe what a piece of sh*t you are.

Sure. Too many head knocks?

Turning a blind eye to racism and telling people to suck it up is not a solution.

The solution is to stamp that sh*t out of our game and eventually society as a whole.

I equate racists in the same category as bullies. If you don’t put them down, and hard, they’ll feel as though their behaviour is legitimised and keep doing it.

That sh*t doesn’t fly anymore.

Act like a merkin and expect to be treated like one. Maybe the lesson in all of this is don’t be a merkin.

At the end of the day, Spencer Leniu, a fine young gentleman, has been outed for 8 games, for uttering a harmless word. This is a travesty when he's done no harm. He hasn't done a head high tackle where people get 2 weeks or a fine. Would you rather have your jaw broken by a head high tackle or be called a monkey?
