But first of all Racism is far more than just crass abusive language, if it wasn't we wouldn't have had genocides down the thousands of years of human civilisation

And whilst language in of itself can't hurt people, if you believe you can treat someone less respectfully as a result of their race and make that race the totality of who they are you are essentially dehumanising them. And whilst yes policing language I agree is counter productive, it's equally unnecessary to make such comments in the first place.

Secondly this issue is more about civility, it's about someone not getting their own way and resorting to abuse, whether that should be a crime or not is one thing whether we want to encourage people that that's an acceptable way of getting their grievances addressed is something else and that applies to anything personally stated to the individual.

"I'm sorry you are too late to check in"

"You are a stupid fat ugly whore who no man would ever touch, it makes me feel sick just to look at you"

What exactly are you hoping for?, I'm not sure the police should get involved but in the above example I have cited, the airline company would have every right to refuse to serve you and ban you from their airline in future for insulting one of their staff.
You are correct, but you are only reinforcing my point.

The situation at the airport is a private matter. Sounds like it had been resolved before some arsehole intervened. Nobody wants to be on the end of abuse and abuse is almost always counterproductive. This is all obvious stuff that every non-liberal can understand without straining the brain cells.

But check the arsehole who intervened and the subsequent newspaper coverage. RACIAL ISSUE! ALERT! What business of it is of theirs and why do they want to blow it up into something 50 times bigger than it was? This is the social conditioning and triggering I'm talking about. These are the people I want to kick in the teeth.

"I'm telling", is one one of the most childish responses imaginable for supposed adults. Deal with your own problems, stand on your own two feet. Stop looking for a nanny state that absolutely does not have your best interests at heart to bail you out of every life situation you find uncomfortable. It's for the person behind the desk to decide what happens. Me, I'd laugh it off, obviously, maybe wave a boarding pass around and then snatch it away. Others might want a colleague to come over and help, strength in numbers and all. Others might decide they want to take things further.

But how do you possibly explain the absolute cunt who poked their nose in and called the cops? There's no excuse for cunts like that. And that's what we have today, roving gangs of highly sensitive arseholes tuned into every human interaction to determine if there's an opportunity to tell nanny. Fucking little Nazi sympathisers who'd shop their own mother for a bit of mock credit, self satisfaction and social kudos in a sick society. THEY are offended on behalf of strangers FFS! The sheer arrogance of it. Who the fuck are they and from where do they draw their authority to intervene?

Now if Xhaka leaps over the counter and starts kicking seven shades out of his victim, or if he's right in his/ her/ its face screaming abuse and frightening the shit out of her and causing him/ her/ it tangible distress, sure thing, you intervene. But something muttered under the breath overheard by a busybody cunt who then leaps in to save the world? Fuck them. And fuck the media for making this the headline in a world where FIFA literally kills poor people so it can make more money.

Yes, racism certainly is more than language. That's my point. We go all hysterical at the language and ignore every other aspect. That's what I can't stand and that's why I have nothing but the deepest, bottomless contempt for the liberal cunts who think they have a fucking clue what's going on in this world, let alone be prepared to do something about it. Damn it, I loathe the cunts.

By liberal I mean the new version, the comfortable cunts who are oh so concerned about the world that they happily take advantage of and defend to the hilt should somebody point out the puss beneath the painted scab. we are witnessing this in all its glory in the States right now. Shoot the cop in the head because love trumps hate and all that shit.

What was I hoping for? I was hoping I was there so I could put my fist through the nose of that goodfornothing busybody cunt so it couldn't be stuck into places it didn't belong in the future.
