I don't think you were being rascist just like i don't think anyone who saw it as innapropriate are snowflakes or overly politically correct. I just think it's one of those things that others have a different perspective on. The middle ground is probably the best place to be. It's not about saying nothing that will offend people. It's about learning from each other where the boundaries are.
The joke was on Inglis. Not on Indigenous people. I can’t agree with the other people’s reaction part though.
Then the issue is your very poor word choice. If your "joke" (which was terribly bad) was a slight on Inglis, perhaps you shouldn't have used words that denigrate an entire people.
How does the word ‘cuzzy’ Denigrate an entire group of people?
My mum always said if you don't understand the meaning of a word, you shouldn't use it.
Mate, there's plenty of other places for racist idiots to have their say. This isn't one of them.
Calm down champ, he's not being racist. Don't get ya knickers in a knot. I have a black Mrs mate, she'd laugh at what he said.
Congratulations. I'm sure she speaks for every black person.
Why have you got your back up brother? If we, as humans, let something so insignificant as words come between us like this, what chance do we ever have of moving forward? In fact, we are heading backwards at a rapid rate because people cannot find any semblance of kindness within their hearts and are on a bandwagon of over sensitivity causing division everywhere you look and it's getting worse. Anxiety, greed, anger, attachment, jealousy and all of these negative emotions are man made, they are a waste of time.
Good to hear. Signing big minute middle forwards like Klemmer and Glasby will free up Saifiti to play an impact based game. Something he hasn’t has the luxury of so far in First Grade. Really keen to see him go.
if his knee is right I imagine the biggest hurdle will be between the ears. Huge mental strength required to come back from that many injuries.
I agree, totally.
