“In this case, a black person is given the privilege of being able to get the police to look into the case of a white person who may have been insulting towards him.
A white person, would not be given the same privilege. “
It’s been widely reported that the complaint was made by a member of the public, not Ferdinand.
Do you have ANY proof that a white person can not be racially insulted?
“Conflicting arguments here, let's get it straight is it about 'race' or is it about having a 'black' skin?
Since there are many races in the world ...”

That is incorrect, we are all Homo sapiens.and we belong to one race that being the Human Race.”
I am confused, is it one race or many???????
Luckily, what you think the definition of race is immaterial since it is defined in legislation. The Crown Prosecution Service website states,
“Racial group – this means any group of people who are defined by reference to their race, colour, nationality (including citizenship) or ethnic or national origin. This could include Gypsies and Travellers, refugees, or asylum seekers or others from less visible minorities. There has been a legal ruling that Jews and Sikhs are included in the definition of racial group”
