Eric_Collins Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I went to Forbiden Planet this weekend to see if i could get my hands on a Dr. Who figure for my little girl. I got the Last cyberman in the shop for ?17.99, for love or money could i get anything. Anyways while the wife went in to fetch it while i kept the little one bussy a teen ( 17'ish Asisn lass with a 6 year old asain lad ) wallked up next to me and she told the lad ( who i guessed asked her a question ). She said " That shops for fat bolding white honkey men who collect comics in the parents bedroom and masterbait over action figures cos' they don't have any real freinds or a girlfreind." She also said " if i catch you in there i'll beat you". I was gob smacked . would that be classed as Rasist or because an Asian said it , it's not. I gave them the most foul look on hearing this not cos of it's contents more the fact she said it to a 6 year old. Any comments on this ? ________ Youporn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbees Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 The only comment I'd make is that she sounds like an idiotic mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr chris Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 She's completely wrong. It's for teenagers who collect comics... Seriously though, that's an awful thing to say - especially to a child - and if that's what she thinks, why were they in FP in the first place? It's not racist, it's just stupid.

VARB Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 She obviously said it with the hope you would hear , 17ish you said just another gobby teen trying to shock dont read to much into it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabberwocky Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Its an excellent way to teach kids the value of racism and bigotry. She was possibly only saying it because she secretly felt bad that she was a mother at such a young age and felt the need to put someone down. Home sprung psychology is FUN!

brettginger Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Yes it most definately is racist but because she is asian, people wont want to say this. What an absolute disgrace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyBell Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Any comments on this ? Only 2 questions 1 why are you posting this? 2 why are you eavesdropping on other people's conversations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 fat bolding white honkey men Yeah, very racist, the rest is just stupidity. I'm sure she would have gone mental if you had replied 'Yes, it's not for skinny, hairy, black, **** women' Once you reverse the situation it becomes easy to identify that the original statement was racist - I just don't think most white people are offended by being called honky or other similar words. So, what you heard, was in effect, reverse racism. * Before someone stupid jumps on the racism bandwagon having read my reply - please note that the reverse comment is a direct opposites reflection of what the woman said and is meant to illustrate the actuality of her degrading comments.
