No shit.

The comments are whats worrying.:hopeless:
Also what the army said on the news, that it was a term of indearment (sp)?!
If it was anyone else they would have been booted out, possibly..:you_crazy
This whole thing has been blown well out of proportion. I don’t believe Harry is a racist. I’ve heard alot worst from army members before and it’s alot of it is just banter, usually no malice is intended. The media and politicians have jumped on the bandwagon and made it ten times worse than it is. he’s apoligised and i believe that it was a term of endearment, how he said it as well didn’t sound racist at all. Also has anyone asked the asian fella what he thinks? no they haven’t because he probably isn’t bothered. personally I think the whole thing is ridiculous, :you_crazy
there is that… ( i cant see him liking it tho tbh, esp if the whole regiment calls him paki all the time)
but then there is also this…
i know he’s not really had the best role models, but he’s supposed to be one and going round dressing like a nazi and calling people a paki isnt the best look for possibly a future king.
When he says to his mate later on in the video that he looks like a raghead, i definatly think that shows a problem with him thinking casual racism isnt that bad as well.
Oh don’t get me wrong, Im not saying that Harry is perfect, The thing that annoyed me is the way the media and politicians have all jumped at the chance to deflect their own shortcomings by hounding harry.
I doubt Harry will actually get on the throne cos we’ve still got a few years of the queen left, Charles will be next and he’ll last a while i reckon. then it’s William who will be quite young when he becomes king. harry won’t get a look in, The racist cunt! :laugh_at::laugh_at::laugh_at::laugh_at:
Sorry i had to put that in there! :weee:
Maybe I’m a massive racist too, because I don’t see it as being particularly bad. So they got him saying paki and raghead on film, am I right?
Offensive and ignorant, yes. Qualifies someone as a massive racist? I doubt it. Not in my book anyway.
Apparently the video was made three years ago too. I agree, I think it’s all blown out of proportion. If it’d been a real problem surely it would’ve ermerged then. I’m sure everyone here has heard a lot worse, and with malicious intent.
Besides, why would anyone be surprised that a royal is racist? They don’t even breed outside their own family…

okay ill go with offensive and ignorant and not a massive racist. but imo it does show that a low level of racism seems tolerated in the british army.
It still irritates me tho that people right it off as its okay he’s just dumb and stupid. Im mean its not okay really is it. its like the whole thing with the duke of edinburgh saying oh look at your slitty eyes! do these people live in the real world? and are they people that we want to represent us and our country as amassadors? not me.
Is it ok to say ‘Aussie’?
What about ‘Frog’? Or ‘Paddy’?
Alright the Royals need to be whiter than white, pardon the pun m’lord. But the media love this shit and the peasants just lap it up.
I don’t get the Nazi thing though. One of my mates dressed up as Hitler at a Heroes or Villains fancy dress and he’s left-wing and anti-fascist, he can’t stand racism. It was just a costume like any other.
but then there is also this…

i hate rasism … but there is a little thing called banter between mates … i have black mates that joke with me about the diferance in our ethnicity .. and it’s all in good humor .. they take the piss just as much as me and no harm is done … that video wasn’t intended for every tom dick and harry to see it was a personal thing that was leeked … i a’m not saing i know weather harry was being rasist or not .. but the way it looks to me is he was just sainging it like he probably would to his face as a mate having a joke .. both participents fully understanding that it would be a joke .. some people may be like .. “well calling some one a paci isn’t a joke” .. but if you and the person both know that your not being serious then funnaly enuff it can deminish racial tention as the diferance is seen as something non threatening and light hearted …
rather than some one pussy footing around some one because thery are from a diferant race and building up a barrier of tention.. wich alltho alot of people think this is the right “politicaly correct” way of going about things is not nesaseraly the best way .. now i am not saing you should call asian people pakis .. far from it .. as most of the time it is used it is in a bad way .. but there are some situations that it has quite the oposit meaning … i am just saing that not calling a black board a black board and calling it a chalk board for the sake of political correctnes can be more offensive to black people than if you were to joke to your m8 about the diferance in ethnicity with them … now i have black friends and have spoke about this to them and asain friends too. … it’s funny how it’s noramly the white people who find this kind of stuff offencive on behalf of our
friends :you_crazy
(that quote is an example of how what could be persived as rasist to others is a joke to the two diferant raced people that are envolved)
(also i am pretty sure harry dressing up in that natzi out fit was a piss take on where his family originate from!)
Offensive and ignorant, yes. Qualifies someone as a massive racist? I doubt it. Not in my book anyway.
also .. it’s fine for him to go and kill said “rag heads” .. but not to call them “rag heads” .. whats worce in your opinion? i know what is in mine! Fire bullets at them and blow there brains out .. thats socialy exceptable … but call them a name .. OMFG YOU SATANIC EVIL EVIL NAME CALLER!!!! (rasism isn’t right .. i am just tring to put this in perspective)
But it ain’t like any other, it’s proper sick shit.
Is it? How, exactly?
Take it your having a laugh mate 😉
No I’m not.
How is dressing up as Hitler “really sick”? It’s in now way condoning any of his actions, but he’s an instantly recognisable figure that can be easily taken the piss out of and therefore ideal for a fancy-dress scenario.
