I've found the language used on this site is becoming more offensive [racist and sexist]
It's all well and good having a laugh , but sometimes we need to stop and realise that this is a free, open , global medium and that comes with responsibilities !!!!
Consider the thread title " Thieving Pikey Bastards ! "

i know what carl means, but totally agree with anton; it's good to be able to talk like you would normally. I've never known anyone to be offended by the word pikey before, not even pikies!

Sorry if this has offended you carl, but you are more than welcome to sell your pegs in the 'for sale' section... joke!! *wink*

If its the truth, whats wrong with it ?

Although we'd more commonly know them as "thieving gypsy bastards" over here.

Same thing...

All the political correctness in the world wont change what they are, so why try and give them some other name ?

I have used the term pikey to a police officer before so if it was a racial slur I should have been arrested.

We used to hate them at work (theme park) as they where a royal pain in the arse. But at least we could be rude and swear at them all we liked, as management didn't care, they just wanted the pikey circus out of their park and out of their car park.

This is not a racist forum. I think if you search for any if the slang names above, the only thread you'll see them in (with the exception of pikey) is this one.

I think you are confusing what the name Pikey is being used for. It is not being used to descirbe a whole community of 'travelers' of which I'm sure many are not thieves, but it is a term used to describe the bad element of such communities.

This forum has a good crosssection of the english speaking (and others) world as members, and any ral racism would not be tollerated.

I bet you though Jade Goody was being racist? I personally believe she is a nasty bully and deserves everything she gets, but was she being racist? NO.

You are still alowd to hate or not get on with people who aren't the same race as you without it being racist. The world has gone mad.

Infact I will just say one thing, I have not found anything I find offensive on turbo minis since I joined and mabie you should try to take a lighter view.

Now I'm staying out of it.

pikies are pikies though, its the way there name has evolved, they used to be called gypo's, but that was unfair on the actual gypsy's (sp??), so people called them traveller's.

Now there just called pikies, youu simply cannot defend them. they pay no tax and steal for a living!! and before you say the do peples driveways and stuff they dont, they bodge them for 1 day take all the money and steal you caravan!!!! (never forgive them for that!!)

Its like calling the youth, chavs, they are! its a common fact!

racism is just a word abused to often if you ask me. you get black people being racist all the time minute white guy says something its all out war. get over it.

Pikey is just a social name given to groups of people like chav, emo, Goth. except they are disliked more.

i hate pikeys, not gonna deny it they've stolen from me and what nothing.

edit: crap at spelling

so much passion in two threads Carl geezer you certainly know what to post psml, but to be honets guys n gals this thread although relevant to current affairs is somewhat OT, it is a just an extension of Jons thread, which the same discussion is taking place ?

can i perhaps be the voice of reason on this one, step accross the line for a second and say

EACH TO THEIR OWN ! Everyone has earned the right to their own opinions regardless of what you agree or disagree too. No one is forcing their views on anyone else.
