All this crap about upsetting muslims etc, my mrs works as a dinner supervisor in a school she has come home with a 37 page book she has to fill in regarding equality at work, all the questions have ref to muslims here is just 1 question of many, i think its utter bollox. mrs Patel,an asian shopowner is chatting to mr appleby who is elderly white man regarding a stolen box of chocolates, 2 young black men walk into the shop, the 2 men are talking, mr appleby suggests that the 2 black men may have stolen the chocolates. The question. Do you agree this could be true . What the hell is that all about.......i am fumng ive told the mrs to tell her employees to get fucked and dont answer any of the questions all 37 of them
In my opinion the people behind doing this are the ones that create anger and racism, there is no need for all this crap
Live life to the full and enjoy, try and help people who havn't got as much as you, you never know what tomorrow will bring!!!!
Its a trick question J, if they ve just walked into the shop they re unlikely to have stolen them, unless the chocolates were stolen earlier by them and they d eaten them all whilst smoking their weed,and come back for some more
[quote="a-casual-zulu"]This could be quite a very intresting thread lol all i`m saying for now !!! WERE THEY WHITE OR BLACK CHOCLATE ??? [/quote]
Im one of them i dont care what colour,religion or background people are from, i will treat those as they treat me, end of....i just amazed at the amount of money they throw at this crap like its going to change something ,,

i know where ya mean...... just cant believe they`ve actually paid someone to produce such CRAP !!! think of the wages and costs but they cant fund proper schoolin thats wht sickens me
The country has gone mad People trying so hard not to offend other races/religions and bollocks to everyone else. Dont see why your Mrs should have to answer questions like that J, not suprised you told her not to bother
[quote="jonah"][quote="maclufc"] Bloody hell mac you need a medal doing that.......[/quote] Its a piece of piss mate, 1 1/2 hours a day, and i look after the 9 year olds, organise the football for them, and thats about it, I do play "bad cop" though
The thing is, when you speak to Muslims and ask them if they get 'offended' by the stuff they are supposed to get offended by they laugh. I mean why would anyone get offended by Christmas? It is middle class white people who have never met a Muslim who 'think' that muslims will be offended by certain things who come up with all these stupid fucking ideas.
tell her she will not answer any questions incase of incriminating herself and she has passed it on to her senior imam for his guidance
on a serious note it is utter bollox m8 this sort of rubbish is nothing short of discrimination and builds more boundaries between faiths imagine a little muslim lad comes up to her and says the christian lad has hit him (without witnessing it)you immidiatly put your self doubt on the christian lad because you are asked to doubt your common sense . breeds distrust and contempt imho
I'm assuming the two black lads are gay.... And mrs Patel is disabled.
She could turn it around and say she was offended by Mr Appleby being called "elderly", when he is actually an older person. The term "Elderly" is a negative social construction!
These fuckin schools eh? My daaughters school ran a trip to a mosque and asked parents for a tenner to cover costs,my girl said she didn't want to go cause she's not interested and would find it boring,as did 4 or 5 others she was hauled up before the head and basically accused of racism!! The poor kid was threatened with a day in isolation if she didn't go,and to top it off the twat gave her a letter to bring home telling us if we didn't pay the money and make her go the trip would be cancelled,spoiling it for the rest of the kids and hinting at racial overtones. To say I gave that cunt a piece of my mind is an understatement,his ears must have been ringing for a week. Suffice to say she had the day off sick. Your right mate it's all fuckin mad

We try to hard not to offend people in this country,yet certain people are given time in the media to say how we are basically second class citizens and our law is all wrong, yet it has worked ok for hundreds of years.no wonder people are joining groups like the edl !

It's crazy mate but the reason this is happening is because so many companies have been found on the wrong end of tribunal cases in relation to this stuff. Cunts exploiting one throw away line and turning it into a racist issue. The Tribunal starts to look into your procedures, anti-racist actions, etc...etc....and then bang- big fine, bad press, etc... It's gone mad. Really has. My Mrs work had to change their free Christmas dinner as its known to Seasonal Meal - just to make sure it offended no-one. She works for Bombardier. What really gets me is the cases where Christians have to justify wearing a cross?????? what's that about? Definitely no parity for the Christian religion. welcome to Britain 2011.......

Not just britain mate. It gets like this more and more all over the western world. US was the first to fall, next western europe.
We are getting so damn scared of offending anyone these days that we can't make a joke with eachother without being afraid you scare someone into a lawsuit.
I work with a guy who is in a wheelchair and he is the funniest guy ever. He makes so much fun about himself in the wheelchair calling himself the only real driving technician, and the pakistani guy i share an office with is just as funny. He doesnt care if you make fun of him, religion or other BS. He just fires back and for that i love being a colleague with him. I dread the day when some PC fuck from HR comes and tells us we cant have fun due to Mubeen being muslim and Kim is disabled eventhough they are the 2 worst themselves.
I hate political correctness
They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.
Treat it with the contempt it deserves. Don't bother filling it in unless they threaten disciplinary action. If they do fill it in with text book answers aways defending the ethnic minority. We had to do one at work last year but no names were attached to answer sheets. Well after watching a shit video we were asked to send in answers and comments. My comment was good video but would be miles better if there was more tit on show. HR apparently went ballistic as there was many comments like this. My watch/station got a bollocking on mass but they couldn't get any one individual or I would have been in some shit along with a few others. Thay haven't asked us to do any more.....................

Thats the maddest thing I have ever heard. She might have been bored or liked it, doubt she was being racist, anyway kids are kids, they change their minds like the weather. I really dont know why we need to cotton wool other races like this, its mind boggling. Do I think I would get (or expect) the same cotton wool treatment if I lived in a foreign land, bollocks would I nor would I want it.

If your a racist your a racist no pamphlet or HR video plus questionaire will cange your atitudes to other races.
All a bloody foolish waste of time and money.
Do you still get the dont be sexist type videos?
I suppose in a way it raises awareness of other nationalities and their sensitivity at work but still come on!.
Another thing there is no such thing as "Positive Descrimination" whatever the outcome as someone is being discriminated against. For me the best candidate gets the job period and they could be purple with yellow spots and if they live up to the CV then the jobs theres.
