Maybe it's just that he is a big bloke ? Why didn't they sing it about Zlatan then? Come on now, I am sure you are not this daft? It is clearly because he is a big black bloke.. Now, if that stereotype is racist or offensive is another matter I guess? This reminds me of the scene on the office where David Brent tells a joke about a 'black mans cock' and gets a right rollocking over it from his superiors.... Very funny scene! But the point is, the subject matter was basically the same and even 15 years ago it was deemed as a racist thing to say. Yes, but it works both ways, colour is not mentioned so it's not racist, But, you making the link says you are looking for racist comments.

A song, or in this case, a comedy sketch relying on racial stereotypes isn't ok anymore. Hope this helps.

You need to read the thread ( the original song ) before thinking I need any help from You, I was not talking about Mr Brent or his sketch. I hope this helps ?

The pc brigade and elf and safety muppets are ruining our lives go back even 10 years and you could say what you like and by the way I still do all of the s getting completely out of hand and beyond stupid soon we will not be able to say anything without fear of getting abused from daft quangos i know of a elder gentleman who recently was removed from the ground and banned from the stadium because 2 ladies may have heard him say something under his breath... as yet the police have not investigated these claims.... i feel sorry for these ladies because if the police can prove nothing he fully intends to speak to his solicitor about action he can take against these ladies. i advised him not worth the bother, but you know what old people are like LOL Its a sad world when it comes to this....... What did your mate actually say?

If we're going to be pedantic about it, I was in the thread before you. The inference is that Mr. Lukaku's skin colour bears a direct correlation to the size of his penis. You know this though, you're just trying to prod people as usual. It does indeed help, as the Brent sketch is not a current reference. Cheers.

The way I see things, is that I am actualy too old for all this PC nonsense to affect me. You cannot teach an old dog new tricks, so my defense is that I am the way I am, because that's the way I grew up. That is a terrible and selfish outlook to have. You can change. You are just either to stubborn or too lazy to be decent. That's what it comes down to. Someone on here the other day of Irish decent took offence at a commonly used term for Irishmen. I thought it was ok to use it, but I have since banned the word. What our own opinion is doesn't matter as white collar Englishman. Think about the person who the term is directed at.

I think if somebody sang a song about me being a 'honky with a 24" penis", I don't think for one second I'd feel racially abused.......In fact, I'd just laugh, and I would also laugh at anyone who thinks that I have been abused.

Don't forget that the normal white English person is now fast becoming the minority race in this country. Why. Because of pc

If your life is being ruined because you can't racially abuse someone then you need to have a serious look at your life!

If you want to be pedantic, the song does not mention colour, the inference is from YOU, seems that makes you a racist.

Seriously, did you ban Irish People (p a d d y )? FFS, one of my best friend's answer's to the name P A D D Y. He's Irish, and it's not his real name.

Don't forget, the gentleman the song is about is not saying anything. He seems okay about it.

I've obviously missed the evolutionary bit about the new amazing world of PC, so I'm having to learn as I go along.
Is this racist?

Would you rather footballers were all white, fans were all white, the only foreigners you'd see are the chink down the chippy or the paki in the corner shop? Some people on here are beyond saving.

absolute joke , nothing racist about it. Just people being offended on other people's behalf again and trying to look for trouble when there is none. Sick of it , you only have to breath in the wrong direction nowadays and some luvvie lefty screams racism and it's usually the snot nosed white people with all the complaints.
