JONJO THE MISER · 2010-08-21 17:08:43

I think you'll find refering to a human being as a half breed is known to be racist and is a term usually reserved for dogs/horses. :rolleyes:

Half cast is the proper term, I suppose you will tell me that is racist too :rolleyes:

It was me who identified her as 'a ride' back on page 45.

That's got to have influenced the judges...........she owes me.

You're telling me this yoke won the rot?
Are you sure this wasn't the transsexual version of it or a spoof?

Haven't heard that one since the 1950's!

Mind you,tossing that sort of stuff around is kind of "hard man" chat, wouldn't you agree?

These guys are unbelievable, all they can concentrate on was who did the deed with the roses ol' mum. Me myself, well I'd rather get a leg over on the lovely Clare herself and the 31 other fine fillys!

The Carlow Rose is still my favourite.

Carlow Rose, Rose of Rralee, it doesn't matter, that rose would be as sweet no matter her name

Surely 'coloured' is worse? It's like something from 60's Ireland ... or 90's South Africa.

Yes, it's a well-known fact that "black" is the correct term and what black people would like to be called themselves. "coloured" is more like "let's shove all the non-whites in together".

It's not possible to find the word "black" offensive... unless of course unless you're racist against black people yourself... :eek:

Now who would have thought the London Rose would win again! She was nice. She is more stunning in real life, saw her last night at the parade.
