I didn't go looking for this, and I understand and appreciate Roy and the Mods position regarding this issue, yet its funny that homosexual men can be referred to as 'poofters' yet any euphemism concerning our asian brethren is banned.

Like I said - Not having a go at Roy or the Mods, on the contrary I think they have had to act on the original topic because of the PC idiots.....they have to cover their backs from the left-wing loonies, but it seems they have to cover them more when discussing Pakistanis. Why? What is the difference between sexual orientation and race? Positive discrimination is widening the chasm between white and asian cultures.....
If a post is seen as offensive to any user, they can report it using the "report" icon. Had any of the posts mentioned above been reported then they will have been dealt with in the same way.
Are you sure that no posts in this thread were deleted??
