Default Racism in Britain today.

Debate: so who thnks this is a good thing, for the sailor or for the lads whose lives have been ruined by the legal action that followed?

Case Study: Indian sailor died after attack by gang of 20 youths

Gregory Fernandes, a 32-year-old sailor from Goa in India, was walking back to the cargo ship he worked on in Fawley, Hampshire when he and a friend were set upon by a 20-strong gang of youths. It was October 2007. Mr Fernandes was his family's breadwinner. A passerby broke up the fight and drove Mr Fernandes to his cargo ship, but he dropped dead from a heart attack.

Police concluded that the attack, which took place in a normally quiet backwater of Hampshire, had clear racist overtones. The gang had been shouting "Paki" during the assault. In January 2008, the Fernandes family expressed concern at the police investigation and the failure to charge anyone in connection with his death. Three young boys were later charged with his murder. At their trial in February 2009, the three admitted lesser charges of manslaughter. In March 2009, Stephen Pritchard, 18, Daniel Rogers, 18, and Chay Fields, 16, were sentenced to six-and-a-half years. A 15-year-old boy admitted GBH on Mr Fernandes' friend and was given a 12-month detention and training order. Another 15-year-old who admitted assault was given an 18-month supervision order.

Racism shows an extreme and unpleasant lack of intelligence IMO.
There are plenty of things to judge a person on, colour of skin is not one of them.

plank. for someone who wanted to change the topic in our other thread, it seems a bit strange that YOU should start this thread, are you an activist?? because it seems as if you want to stir trouble, if you are against racism why start this thread, all you will do is upset the racist, like me, and then i will let you know the truths of while im a racist,. ok rant over i wont bite on this topic.

i would not differentiate,if you were a fat bald ginger chap and were harrased constantly would you not feel the same hurt as a coloured chap called a paki or nigger or something simlair of course you would but it does not atract the same atention my case in point is poor woman who felt it nescery to set fire to her car with her and her disabled daughter inside it after recieving no help from police ,im betting if shed been anything other than a white english women police wouldve been queing up to help.
