Ladies!
First of all, WeAre, I believe you owe Yousef an apology.........................for insinuating that he has raised the racist card. He simply hasn't and, in fact, chose not to rise to your comment at all, which is commendable. Read the thread back and you will see you are wrong fella.
Secondly, having read your initial post, I can understand what you meant and in no way do I perceive it to be racist. However, if I do understand the point you were making correctly, you are suggesting that the other poster should not get too hung up on what Yousef said because English is not his native tongue and so, the post didn't really make sense?
Now, there lies the next problem: I believe English IS your native tongue and yet the way in which you posted the comment leaves it open to interpretation by the wet lettuce brigade....................so perhaps you should think about how you word these sort of things before you post?

Good, glad we agree there.

Now, for the rest, Michael229, it may have appeared disrespectful, if one interpreted the comment in the wrong way, but it is a million miles from being racist. If this place is the laughing stock you suggest, why not skip on back to your favoured site, or perhaps spend your time reading that copy of the Guardian you have tucked under your arm instead. No offence but, if (a) you dislike this site and (b) you interpret this issue as being racist, I suggest you are better off elsewhere
Hipster - I think you too owe Yousef an apology for grabbing hold of your wooden spoon and turning this into something it was never meant to be. If you have the intelligence you appear to have (based on the erudite wording of your posts) I'm sure you will see that it was always a question of poor use of the English language by Yousef = forgivable and poor use of the English language by WeAre = far less so.
Although of course in a fair society, English people are just as entitled to struggle with construction of the English language as anyone else
None of the above of course presupposes that my English is perfect but one thing I know for sure is the racist angle is played here entirely out of context and mainly by people who had nothing to do with the situation but obviously feel their soap boxes needed a day in the sun

Great stuff blue......well said.

Exactamondo.

Certain peeps using it to go off on one. Time and a place. This isn't it.

Facto???

Not desperate to see it at all,when it is there on a post for all to see without any inference of it being a joke. Acts of ignorance are quite often brushed as "banter", and I will always stand up for anyone if they are made to look little. As I said, all it takes is for people to ignore for ignorance to fester. Educating of the error is the key.

Anyhows, let's just draw a line,but to be weary that abuse or belittling will not be tolerated for our fellow man/woman, so maybe getting points across more clearly is the outcome from all of this.

You really need to think about how abusive you are to people before you start preaching. Labeling someone ignorant, is that not abusive?
I also find it funny that you want tolerance all round but instruct everyone else what you think should not be tolerated

Racist card, PC? Far from it. What era are we living in?

It's called tolerance and respect for our fellow man/woman....Otherwise, stay in dark ages Sir and be left behind.

My comment was directed at you by the way. WeAre stuck up and voiced what he believes in (and happens to be the same as my views). It wasn't a direct attack at you...... All this tolerance to fellow man/women b0ll0cks you rabbit on about, IMO is just a load of $hit that you use to make yourself look 'PC' good! its a shame this country is full of wet heads like yourself who cant see whats really in front of them.... a country that's full of too gooders (a bit like yourself) and slowly being invaded by foreigners!

[Nick]

Not sure how you got onto your ukip style rant over what was said but weares comment about yussef was very poor.

I like you Norths, but you clearly didn't read the whole thread before posted this.... by the way what's wrong with 'my' view's??? (not ukip).

I love right wingers/racists trying to make excuses for their comments! Having read the Daily Mail they are obviously having a go at all the 'too gooders', like me! 'Invaded by foreigners'- now there's a nice non pejorative phrase for explaining how the world operates, but hey ho if it means keeping a few ethnics out it's worth it!

Britain is shot to pieces through our open gate system....give benefits not only to our own who dont want to work but half the bloody world. I think your find a lot of hard working british citizens find that very hard to tolerate when we are paying taxes and working our arses off to provide for our families.
