But all you will see are the funniest comments in the world. Lead a horse to water and all that. So no you can't be racist, you are the funniest and most enlightened person in the world. Yawn

    So, it's ok then? Perfectly acceptable? You've no issue with what these guys did?

    I have no issue with what these guys did. I have more issue with those that take issue with such mundane nothings.

    I'm not a racist by the way.

    sigh...

    In this day and age, ye are actually debating whether drunk stupid white boys messing about in blackface paint in public is racist.

    After centuries of vile racism against Irish people across the world we still haven't learnt anything.

    We need to stop wallowing in ignorance and start learning. They ought to teach us multicultural studies in school.

    Here is some context about blackface for those who are still ignorant about it.

    That's a very flippant attitude to take to such a serious topic being discussed in this most serious of place of debate. Can't you at least try to be serious on After Hours, treat this forum with the gravitas it deserves?

    I actually saw these guys on Sunday and although I'm usually against the pc stuff I thought it was completely senseless and tasteless. I just saw the lads in normal clothes who had painted their faces brown which is obviously not an attempt to dress up as their hero or anyone. I think it was pretty offensive to be honest.

    Oppression doesn't define black people. Dressing as a black person isn't dressing like a slave because all black people aren't slaves.

    If you think dressing as a black ieeson is racist, then maybe you need to look at what you think black people are.

    Definitely not racist.

    Accusing people of being racist and posting it for the public to see probably not the cleverest thing she's done

    I saw these girls wearing normal clothes, but they had painoted themselves brown. There's tons of them every where in rainy old ireland.

    Are you offeneed by these women and their body paint? What's the colour on the chart were offense stops?

    Have you ever asked a black person how it feels when a white person dresses slaps on face paint, a fake afro, , puts on a fake black accent and caricatures a black person purely for some cheap laughs.

    Most black people will tell you that it is deeply offensive and that they find it racist.

    Well her calling people racist all while making a much more racist "as dense as the fake Jews" comment herself, pretty much shows shes not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

    Or that she knows what racism is.

    Or how NOT to use social media.

    No black person ever asked me how I'm feeling, (except this one girl I was riding while on e) so why should I go around being an apologist?
