Actually, you're right.
I don't think the denizens would actually kill someone who sidled up to a group of black men and called them the N word, but no doubt they would hand down a few well-deserved slaps.
JTH - yup...I don't. I think that THEMOTLEY1 might be operating off a set of stereotypes.
Stereotypes can be useful, but sometimes misleading...like my own one which suggested that a white bloke calling blah blah blah.
Anyway, will have a look at this thread tomorrow, hopefully after THEMOTLEY1 has taken a trip over to SW2. I myself am off to Grindr to chat to come 'friends' from the Household Cavalry.
Wish me luck.

/// Traitors now, it is getting more tangled as things unfurl. ///
Not really Mam, since there is only one traitor, not in the plural as you put, also my description fits this person perfectly.

/// Just like making gas chamber jokes to Jewish people isn't banter. ///
What a ridiculous analogy, this wasn't openly said to the black soldiers, it was put in a private message between mates.
Obviously you have never been in the services or any such organisation, only ever experienced the closed confines of an office I believe.
Banter goes off on a daily basis be it directed at females, race, religion. or even personal differentials, some of it (as in this case) not acceptable to be aired directly at the persons.

The armed services are not a race apart with special dispensation to indulge in racist banter, so long as the recipients don't get to hear about it.
The point here is not that the 'banter' was aired publicly, and exposed for the vile Neanderthal racism that it is. The point is that these views are unacceptable, and the notion of sharing them as a 'bit of banter' does not make them acceptable.
it is not possible to be a 'jokey racist'.

AOG - //A few thugs down in that neck of the woods is there?
Being the case, shame on you for inviting anyone to go down there. //
There may be 'a few thugs' - but they are seriously outnumbered by a large indigenous black population who probably don't think that racism is funny, and might not appreciate it being aired in their presence.
