5 Live: Police investigating racist incident at Etihad

[hilts]

What an absolutely joke, how exactly is "black twat" racism?
Evra is black, Evra is a twat. I see no problem with the statement at all.

If he had shouted "that man's a twat" would be sexist for including his gender?

Love it

You're the guy who tells everyone "i can't be racist, i have a black friend"

Imbecile..... If you can't differentiate where the line is then stay the fuck out of debates which obviously are to challenging for your peanut brain!!!

Good one, now try actually answering my post with that massive brain of yours.

If your watching a film and someone says to you "who robbed the bank" and you reply "the black guy" are you racist? or are you the dumb ass that doesn't realise it's 2012 and you're too scared to mention skin colour so you'd sit there for 10minutes trying to explain which character it is?

Being racist is defined as treating one person different from another because of their skin colour. The same way as being sexist is defined as treating one person different from another because of their gender. Stating a skin colour is not racism in the same way that stating a gender is not sexist.

Grow up.

Your a fool

Agree with this, however to scream it at someone kind of infers you are using it as an insult?

Otherwise you'd just shout 'Evra you twat' (as I do every time he plays us lol)

I do think it's overblown when people react to it like they've been shot, it's just a word after all, but I think the insult as described was almost certainly racist.

For those wondering, when including a term of race or nationality "e.g. black, or even Argentinian)" as a way to embellish a verbal attack on someone, you are being racist and are guilty of a racially aggravated public order offense. Nationality and ethnicity are treated the same by law.

The nationalistic chanting is just more socially accepted, and therefore unreported.

Sad that people knew he was there with his kids and got the police involved. A qiuet word would have been more apt.. Now these 2 young girls have had to see their dad being arrested!

Are you for real?
The guy was clearly showing great concern for his daughters when he stood and racially abused an opposition player. He got what he deserved and the only person responsible for his kids seeing him get arrested is himself.
Fair play to any Blues who pointed him out to the Police/Stewards we don't want a***holes like him associated with our club.

Yes, I am for real. Everyone has said something stupid in the heat of the moment. If it was just what's been reported on here then there was no need at all for the law to be involved at that point.

First off heil hitler

secondly you moron how the fuck can you use a comparison where by you don't even use the 'said' words or same context???? please tell me you grasp the difference? try adding the words to your "quote" and tell me that isn't racist? If it's such an acceptable norm (other than in minorities like yourself) then why is it projected through anger? frustration? Surely i don't need to explain how this isn't acceptable??

Without doubt you take the award for either the biggest numb nuts i've ever come across on here or in fact you're what the 'kick racism out' campaign is all about, either way you sadden me!!!!

So if I hear a rag refer to Tevez as an Argie twat I can have him arrested? Is that what you're saying?
