Do we all agree Dipstickerminco and Mal Brown where being Rascist in there comments?

Better not said in public, but in private I think many would take them more lightheartedly.

I agree they were being racist but I also agree that there's been far worse said

Agree with both you i also think racism is both ways and i am sure things are said in relation to anglo's but less said about it, but these days you cant say nothing, i was scared to right Mal Brown incase i got banned for writring "brown" could be construed as rascist.

roo boys!

I think that he shouldn't have said it then and there, I know that he just meant it as a joke but he should have known that other people wouldn't take it that way and the media would make him look like the bad guy and exaggerate on his comments made.

Racism is an ugly issue.
It is THE problem at Port Adelaide - only black and white - no GRAY! ;)

Don't bring that up again :'( :'(. The Great Gray Dibachiery of '10 :'(.

On Racism, even if somebody is trying to joke, people can still take it in a different sense. Look at Tahu. Johns was joking but didn't feel as though it was even meant to be mentioned. Left because he felt so strongly about it.

I grew up hosting Japanese exchange students and have grandparents who fought them in the war.
One of the most beautiful moments of my life was when my Grandfather, a WWII veteran, welcomed with open arms into his home and hugged an exchange student we took to visit him.
Forgiveness not hatred, acceptance not racism.
