None of my views are racist otherwise they would have been removed.
so, you are trying to say that my posts\which where removed on your say so, were RACIST?
I suggest it is you who is the racist and has the problem.
Another classic trick use by your kind where you lable the victims of your vile racist agenda as the culprit, while you put yourself down as the victim of racism . Try the other one mate
How dare you even question my nationality!
Well, funy its now you suddenly claim Irish ancestry, as I have NEVER heard you say you were Irish before. You only mentioned it now as a get out jail card after you got yourself in a bit of bother with your narrow-minded views spouted.
How about i make the case that you arent even black but a bored school child???
I hate to tell you this, but you can't do that as there's friends and foes on here who can testify that his majesty is the son of Jah and I am BLACK i every sense of the word!
It is obvious from that psot that you know nothing about the Irish nor their history. Your a joke. A sad pathetic joke of a person.
Actually, for just the fact that I know alot about Irish history, I derserved 95% scoreline out of a 100%. Now compare too you, you have NO knowledge of Black history or even Black people experience.
Your ''factual'' views are far too easily beaten.
Now do yourself a favour and Foxtrot Oscar. Your last too comments is basically a surrender, as you are doing the same thing your pals have done on here over the years when I give them the ugly truth, they like you resort to jokes to cover your defeated view point,

I am more than a man, I am the son of Jah, Lord Atiladhun the lion. I fear no one and NEVER hide from a good debate and will battle any poster, provided they warrant my precious attention. sO, if you look up, you will see that I have indeed replyed to your earlier post. Mofaya!
Jah had an off day when he created you atilla. You know very well i wont back down from you nor will i shy away from your posts. Speaking of which what were you saying about all Police Officers being fair game for being killed.... Yes you are such a lovely person. Mong.
Present the post where I said that all your pals deserved to be killed, as evidence is vital when prosecuting an accussed or you prefer to fit up people instead? or silent them for dead by aphensixation? Funny you should mention POlice and death as its your friends who are still killing BLack people on the streets of the UK and custodies of police stations up and down the country. Does the name, Frank Ogboru mean anything too you? YOu pals murdered the above person in cold blood and your friend at the CPS let them off. I'm pretty sure the family of frank Ogboru wouldn't mind if one of these murderous killer copppers in turn get killed, as what you rip, you sow. Jah creating me was met too be, I mean why do you think, you and your fellow travellers on here hate my guts so much? Jah ordained me on earth to give the like of you hell,,,,,,,,,,until you depart from your wicked heart ways and action.

Black people in your mind, are not good in academic studies as far as education is concern. Yeah, I suppose the fact that Brothers in sports are earning millions, really does get you  as that one sector that your ilks need them to be part of, in order to gain sucess for club and country.

You damn right it is. Why don't you ask our tolerant friend Jim of the deep south, why is it that despite Black and mixed-race players having a huge presence in our sporting arena, there seem to be a huge shortages of them in our FA organization, Club managers, directors, Coaches, Admin staff, and all sectors within the sport industry that doesn't involve them using their physical strenght or sporting skills? This guy pick the wrong day to battle his majesty, is best bet is to run too his backers on here as am killing him slowing witrh facts and facts

And as usual, to show how ignorant and stereotypical you are, by bringing up the usual rubbish about sport (next you will mention rappers and musicians, l trust), cause all you think Black people are good at is sports and making music. Black people in your mind, are not good in academic studies as far as education is concern. Yeah, I suppose the fact that Brothers in sports are earning millions, really does get you  as that one sector that your ilks need them to be part of, in order to gain sucess for club and country.

Who has the season ticket? Dont question my support. I put my money where my mouth is.

Frank Rijkaard, Ruud Gullitt show that if you are good enough you will get a shot. The FA is an old boys club and as such there are many who will never get in the doors let alone black people. What colour is the manager of the England womans team?? Your diggin holes for yourself now...but please do keep going.

You and I know perfectly well, what the author of this thread was pointing out when they put this topic up. It had nothing to do with simply employing Black people just because they are Black.

Don't waste your breathe I say, you and I plus any decent White persons on here know the score. Yeah right, next thing we might hear Nick Griffin proclaime that he ain't a racist as he is Irish or of some persecuted stock
Are you trying to say the Irish werent persecuted?? We werent called the 'blacks of Europe' for nothing you ignorant cretin!  And what about the signs ''no blacks, no dogs, no irish''?? Or were those just figments of my parents imagination?? You actually disgust me with your double standards! Oh and that ''anyone who doesnt agree with me is a racist'' tripe doesnt wash with me any more - I have lost what little respect i had for you.
I have said in a previous thread that both black people and Irish people were subject to discrimination in the past. As a person of Irish heritage, you should be careful before you decide that black people are talking nonsense when they state that racial prejudice still exists. People who are against racism need to listen to the concerns of people's like LA the Son of Jah and myself. Treating people like whingers and 'cretins' isn't the way to create harmony and understanding in our multicultural society. Anti-racism needs to keep its eyes open, understand what's going on, and recognise discrimination when it rears its head. It doesn't condemn to silence people who feel that discrimination still exists. Black people don't appreciate being told to be quiet when they raise concerns about the inequalities in our society!

Neither do Irish people need to hear people dismiss their former abuses as ''revisionist lies''  Also i have never said Racial prejudice does not exist. Do you actually read what is typed?

You will have to ask LA son of Jah exactly what he meant by 'revisionist lies'. What concerns me is the tendency to play up one form of oppression against another. It's unnecessary. If the Irish have been oppressed, that doesn't mean that the oppresssion of black people must be downplayed. It means that oppressed people should be united against the forces of oppression! As for racial prejudice, wasn't it you who said that prejudice had nothing to do with the underrepresentation of black people on TV? You implied that good black actors would always get parts. In other words, if there are few black actors on the screen, it must be because they're not good enough. I'm not sure how I've misunderstood you!

I said I would like to think people are employed based on their ability not colour. Have you ever thought that it may be that its the writers and casters who may be at fault?? Perhaps they have specific people in mind when they write the part? Im not saying its right but not much in the world is.

One thing I will say is that there is a Backwards mentality when it comes to soaps and films portraying Black people - look at Eastenders with Gus as a roadsweeper or before that, various characters as criminals. HOWEVER, my other post ( http://community.channel4.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/8476000511/m/1150026977) carries relevancy here because as Bobby S asked, how many FTSE 100 companies have a Black board member? None. Most rich Black people are entertainers and sportspeople (FACT). Within the media, there are toffs and idiots in the corridors of power who know nothing about Black people who when it comes to casting, basing their decisions on what they've read in the paper or what their other White 'Middle England' friends tell them. But I feel again that if Asians here can make an impact on TV as well as business and if Black Americans can go from being portrayed as servants and shoe polishers in the 1930s-1960s to being Cops, Soldiers and Presidents today, then Black people here should be able to likewise, given sufficient effort. Rather than complaning and being part of the problem, be part of the solution.

Do you think that Asian people have a greater TV presence than black people? That's interesting. How are black people 'part of the problem' in the context of this discussion?
