Hammond "race row"
Discussion
So apparently referring to onesself as a doasyoulikey is now on a par with calling a black man [unmentionable words], according to some crackpot in a position of influence that was interviewed earlier.
First of all, how the mincing f
k does living in a caravan and constantly trying to do the very opposite of travelling make you a separate race with all associated rights and invented ideas of persecution etc? Secondly, if Hammond had levelled the comment at someone else then I could see the PC brigade's point.. but calling himself one is hardly offending anyone? I dont see police arresting black people that call each themselves and other [unmentionable words] for hate crimes.
I really do despair of this country sometimes....

From reading it in context, it seems harmless, but Hammond has form. I wonder if this storm on a teacup will go anywhere?
Hammond might be on thin ice here

Well no one seemed to mind when he laid a pork pie and a key on the bonnet of that Holden ute and left viewers draw their own conclusions...http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2152523/To...

is banned? dammit now I will have to use the long form instead, its going to add extra time on my posts to refer to them as 'vile, thieving, tax dodging scum' instead of the shorthand of pi-key.And remember you cant call murderers murderers anymore in case you offend the murderer race.

I dont find it offensive, but then again im not a traveller. This thread is very similar to a conversation I was having the other day about the word "chav" is that an offensive word? Its certainly derogatory. Although IMO "chavs" and "s" are not races of people I can still see how by calling them it, it would be deemed offensive.
