Goshdarn you, Britain
 
If you haven't seen this already:



My worry is that a lot of people in our country agree with this woman, and would probably sit watching this video nodding their heads. She clearly has no idea whatsoever of anything she's on about, so why do they think she's right? Is petty racism and slander really what Britain's turning into?

These idiots always make me laugh. Is this woman sure she's really, truly British? No Anglo-Saxon, Norman or Roman blood? I'm sure if someone asked her she wouldn't even understand what they were talking about. The good news (and the bad news) is that this kind of moron can be found everywhere, it's not just a British problem. Heaven knows we have no shortage of them over here.

What that woman needs is a good slap. I really despise people like her and this kind of thing is sad to see in the year 2011. What's even sadder is that her son will probably think this is normal and grow up to be just like her or even worse. There is plenty of this everywhere, in my home town recently I saw a group of scumbags shout racial abuse at a Chinese girl who was walking along the other side of the street. It's even more widespead but on a smaller level among some older more conservative people who might just grumble about them coming over here and say they should all be deported. But really to see an all-out racial attack like that on people in this day and age is just sad to watch.

Most intelligent people don`t think she`s right and just see her for the piece of scum that she actually is, the big concern is for that poor kid of hers, as he will probably be influenced by that attitude of hers as he grows up, I`m surprised nobody hit her or beat her up on the train or tram.

I`d say attitudes today are actually less racist than they were, as a kid who grew up in the 1970s and 1980s, I had friends from ethnic backgrounds who at times suffered from racial slurs etc when they went out of their immediate environments, today they wouldn`t face it so it has got better.

As said, these people are everywhere and nearly every first world country today is inter-racially mixed and there is really no turning back, we live in a completely muti-racial society and there is really no turning the clock back on that.

The only thing that brought a smile to my face (I know that doesn`t sound appropriate) was when she mentioned the Poles, the poor old Poles always seem to get it! The fact of the matter is though, that your average Polish worker here, is a damn site harder working and more polite than your average british worker.

That is so ****ing embarrassing, she should have her child taken away from her honestly, because that kind of bull**** always gets instilled in the kid.

Its the same way here in the states with my good American Mexican friends from The Valley in South Texas.

I`ve travelled around most of Latin America and always found latins to be the most friendliest and politest of any people that I`ve met.

That guy behind her almost did but it looked like someone tried to calm him down. Good thing because this could have turned a lot worse if he had done something. Instead we are just left with her looking like a total moron.

Poor kid...not only does he get to listen to all that language, but he's going to grow up a racist, too. I'll try to make myself feel better about this with the hope that these people are more in the minority than ever before. As time goes by and countries mix more and more these people will just look exponentially stupid.

She's scum, but the furore that's been created around it, in regards to the state of British society, is unwarranted. She represents a tiny fraction of the general population, and her views aren't indicative of a general opinion. She's just a fucknut .
