Watch this "My Tram Experience"

[Halfpenny]

Fuck, I've just seen this and I'm appalled. Absolutely shocking, and with a kid on her lap as well. I'm glad she's been arrested, hopefully she'll get the book thrown at her.

I'm going to vehemently disagree with her as well, in that I believe that multiculturalism IS 'British'. In fact, there is no fixed concept of what 'Britishness' is, society is constantly evolving and the churchillian ideal with pictures of bulldogs in front of a union jack with 'land of hope and glory' is from a bygone age. To put it down to a fixed stereotype is pretty simplistic in my opinion. Different races and cultures have been a part of British culture for decades. Hell, even the Royal Family, that pinnacle of Britishness, is of German descent.

He isn't and he has a valid point.

He doesn't as this lady was preaching hate. Very different to his examples.

I do because whilst I'm not in any way condoning the filth spewing from her mouth I think it's vital that care is taken not to go to the other extreme.

My post was in response to the question "so we should be allowed to say whatever we feel like in public?". Which in this context meant " You can't just go around saying what you feel" and that my friends is a very dangerous statement.

we are discussing what this woman(if you can call her that) said specifically on this clip and i said people cannot go round saying anything they feel like saying, i didnt as you know say people cannot express an opinion and freedom of speech is not important. How you got from this lowlife bile to a rather strange defence of people rights to express themselves is bizarre.

its almost like your on a wum and behaving like a prat just for the sake of it although this couldnt possibly be the case<br /><br />-- Mon Nov 28, 2011 7:18 pm --<br /><br />

the fact is if she said she was against immigration due to social impact and the effect on the economy then fair enough, people are entitled to their opinion, however spouting rascist expletives in front of children and people in general is out of order, she's just a scrote and tomorrow will probably be calling pensioners effing coffin dodgers.

shes just a waste of space end of

It's not at all bizarre mate. I'm simply offering a more measured response than yours. Your statement whilst in the context of this thread is understandable is still a dangerous one. Almost all social evolution is based on people saying what they feel in order to trigger change.

I wonder what the daily fail's take on it will be.

No - I'm a massive racist and thought I would out myself as such as I have grown tired of fitting in.

Totally agree. You can't just lock people away for what they say/think. It doesn't get rid of the problem (if there is one and in this case there is).

Well a good morning from Australia, normally I get up and for a few minute's have a look at whats being on at Bluemoon overnight, well this just hit me, and I am still shaking my head at the woman, it hasnt hit any of the media outlets over here but give it time....What was the person on!!!!.I am glad that someone has been arrested, the unfortunate thing of speaking your mind in public can now get you into some serious strife.....My wife was just shaking her head at the viciousness of the tirade, I felt for all the people who was nearby having to listen to such tripe.....made me feel quite ashamed of my heritage.......

that is why i posted it in this thread because it is relevant to this thread, if i made it in a general freedom of speech topic then your arguement would have some validility to it, as it is your just argueing for the sake of it which is quite tiresome to be honest.

if the world wakes up tomorrow and people are not allowed to express themselves and this is directly linked to my post on bluemoon regarding a junkie female waste of space you can come back and act even more smug than you are doing so far.

sometimes a thread doesnt have to turn into a big theological debate which some bluemooners seem to have a problem with
