More racist remarks

[smilingcrow]

You do not need a licence to drive around Leeds and sell ice creams. Why is it you never see a while person driving around and if you go to the bad areas all the ice cream vans are parked up. I'm not racist but why is that???????

[jackthehat]

For heavens sake, Matthew, haven't you got anything better to do with your time?

I've just read this, 19 posts long, and I haven't a clue what's going on. Maybe I've had too much excitement for one evening and should go to bed.

What! Have you seen a black man driving an ice cream van??
And being asked for a choc ice??? Tut tut!

[smilingcrow]

Fg I have never seen a black person driving an ice cream van. I said Asian ;)

[funnygirl]

Our local pizza van is manned by a large black man, why is that? he isn't even Italian, how can he possible make such good pizzas. :-)

our local pizza place has started doing hot-dog crust stuffed pizzas. How good is that! The crust is better than the pizza.

That sounds good, booldawg.

............and most restaurants in Falkirk are staffed by Scots!! Why is that?

[wildwood]

why is there always a 'but' when people say "I am not a racist"?

[Duncer]

...but they aren't.

Really?????

[sfby]

Handy translation...

"I'm not racist, but..." = "I'm a racist"

[Duncer]

I largely agree, but I will say a brief word in their defence. Perhaps the fact that there has been a proliferation of accusations every time a delicate subject such as immigration arises makes people feel the need to go on the defensive before they even dare to speak?

Ice cream's no good
Keep your money and buy food!

That's what my ma always said anyway!

[Wharton]

When the ice cream van came into our street and started chiming our ma told us that the chiming meant that the man had run out of ice cream.

You're married to somebody from a different racial background, yet you have definite racist views.

Why is that?
