"Reader's comments are unavailable"

Seems like they might be having a purge.

The racist comment seems to be gone now.

Do they think keeping racist coments in (or replacing removed ones) will keep the anti-Dacre commenters from adding their own counter arguments, by keeping them too busy reporting the awfull stuff to write their own?

Malcolm Armsteen · **Posted:** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:55 pm

Could you explain that a bit more, please?

The goodies will be too busy reporting the baddies to make any comments about how shit the mail is.

Malcolm Armsteen · **Posted:** Mon Jul 30, 2012 3:21 pm

I see. It only takes a moment to report a post, though.

Mrs Weir said: 'When we heard about Kieran and his family’s fantastic efforts to raise money for a new prosthetic leg, we had to help.
'It is a privilege to support him and, with this new leg, we hope he will continue to be determined to remain active and live life to the full.'
Kieran's parents will continue to fundraise, but will now hand over proceeds to the Toma Fund, which helps teenagers with cancer.

This couple won £161 million !!! How can this action, laudable as it is, be described as 'generous'? Does no one recall the story of the 'Widow's mite'? That was generous. I understand this couple also gave Alex Salmond £1 million to fight for the nationalist cause in Scotland. Was rthis generous? I hope the Weir''s continue to support good causes but may I humbly suggest that they take another lesson from the Bible and make sure that their right hand does not know what their left hand is doing.

Asian postman branded a 'cockroach' by colleagues is awarded £100,000 after being sacked for exposing racism
Following Abdul Musa's complaints he was accused of racial and sexual counter-accusations

He and another worker Christopher Eccles were sacked in 2007 and 12 colleagues were disciplined

This prompted strike action and graffiti 'Kill the P***s' was found in the staff toilet

Tribunal judge slams Royal Mail's investigation into the racism as 'shambolic'

This kind of case of vast sums of money for "hurt feelings" has got to stop. Who, in the end pays for all of this? US!!!!! Racism is nasty but somewhere along the line people must grow a spine. Get legal redress by all means but huge amounts of money, then NO!!!!! Greedy society we have become.

I do believe that it is the members of our immigrant communities that perpetuate this idea that everything their workmates say is racist and not general banter. I am a member of a minority being Welsh and the number of times I've been accused of trying to obtain carnal knowledge by interfering with a sheep's anatomy would ensure a compensation award that would keep me in vulgar luxury for the rest of my life.

Spraying "Kill the Pakis" on the wall is "general banter"? Jesus fucking christ.

A deeply unpleasant case, which I bet both Royal Mail and the Union involved wanted kept under the table. Shows there's still so far to go in the workplace when you've a shop-floor full of bigoted bullies like Eccles running riot. Newsflash mate: England doesn't belong to people of your ilk, indeed, large parts of our heavy industry are now owned by Indians. Why did this take 6 years to sort? They should have given him a 100K for each year.

You can't say "Boo To A Goose" these days without litigation. I wish my old schoolyard saying "Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me" was currently adhered to. If this was applied to life today, then life would be very much simpler although big-fee lawyers would not agree.

Asian workers, including Mr Musa, were labelled ‘cockroaches’ ‘vermin’ and ‘P***s’, an employment tribunal heard, and an Italian worker also received racial slurs and was dubbed a ‘greasy b******’.

In fact, anyone who uses the "Just sayin'" thing (up there with "I'm not X but..." to justify fuckwittery) can qualify for COTD.

Can I also throw in 'I'm not being funny but...'

"It was just a joke..."

Oh yes.
Although there's a huge debate to be had about giving/taking offence.

Malcolm Armsteen · **Posted:** Sat Aug 04, 2012 12:10 pm

Intentional offence. Different from challenging views.
