Re: Suarez (merged)
Black people still are...Ask them, they'll tell you in a heartbeat.DiscoSteve said:this ban is a fecking disgrace for two reasons:-
1. It was on Evra's word alone (I shall ignore the fact he is a Rag)
2. Even if Suarez used the N word, to my mind there is no difference between the use of that as a "slagging off" word as compared to a whole multitude that exist in the Male Workplace which are used equally to derogatory effect - calling someone fat, thin, short, tall, bald whatever - its all the same - you are making a derogatory comment about someones physical appearance - why does the colour of someones skin STILL have special status in this respect in 2011? Its fecking ridiculous and society needs to get hold of itself and say - its either all or nothing? not some half baked situation rooted in history - don't get me wrong blacks and asians were treated disgracefully in the past, but that was then and this is now, the 21st Century
