Blame brexit in 3...2...

I'm sorry but I am never going to blame brexit for social issues like this..

I suspect he was merely anticipating the arrival of the usual suspects. Not nice for your kid BTW, my sympathies. I wish I had an answer that didn't involve scourging the little sts.

[cloggy]

Sorry it happened my friend but they are just ignorant idiots, just ignore them.

Scrotes - racism does appear to have become more acceptable.

I would report it to 101 - not least just in case they make a few claims that you attacked them...

Yes I am considering this..

Please do it. Local police need info to put resources to something like this. They may have abused others or committed other crimes so the more reports that are called in will help.

It's awful when this sort of thing happens. Hopefully if nothing else arises from this, karma will pay them a visit.

Being ignorant and uneducated is just the easier option for many these days that other options don't even feature. Seems to be the idolised path of least resistance for the masses sadly enough.

Definitely report it, and I'm sure you've already reassured your son that this isn't acceptable behaviour to receive and not what is representative of respectable society

Really? Or is it just the media hinting at such?

[LordJammy]

The best way to deal with racism is to stamp it out. A size 10 to the face ought to do the trick. Repeatedly.

Cleaning the car (which is to be sold today) with my young son when suddenly 4 kids turn up, in full JD Sports wardrobe and when I go inside for a second my son is racially abused by them, who can't be any older than 13 ("Excuse me have you got any curry"). My son goes inside and tells me, when I come out the chavs have crossed the road and ask ME the same line. I respond "Are you stupid?". The chavette responds "yeah" so I say "come and say that to my face" and at that point they leg it. Im fking fuming, what a stty world we live in for a young child to be racially abused and the "kids" have the cheek to talk back.

Do you know where they live? Police take a very dim view on this now. I know at Greater Manchester Police it'd be a priority.

I was discussing this with friends a few days ago and I commented that I had not heard a truly racist opinion for a good few years, and my sons generation (just left school) seem to be the most integrated of the lot. Aside from the ironic 'comedy' comments (the ones based typically on racial stereotypes and are not in any way offensive to most people) people don't even seem to notice any more and I just see society as way more integrated than it was 20 years ago.

To this end, I disagree that racism is more acceptable. Sadly there are people for whom a skin colour is always going to be an issue and this is learned behaviour from parents and peer groups.

"Excuse me do you have any curry"? How on earth can this be classed as racism ? This is PC going really mad.

You know full well the context in which it was said

[grumbledoak]

"Excuse me" does sound a little polite for a hate crime. Are you quite sure they weren't trying to be funny and getting it badly wrong?

[Dr Doofenshmirtz]

Better than the usual...
'You can do mine next'
'You'll wash all the paint off'
'Washing it again Dr?'

...that I get whenever I'm washing the car. It's an OCD sufferers hate crime.

How do you know I'm not a real life hard man?

I don't, nor do I care.

No they were definitely meaning it.
Why would they do it again, and then talk back?

No I have never seen them before. I think they are from the council type area which is about half a mile from here.

But are those comments coming from 2 teenage girls and a teenage boy? No, those comments come from 40 year old people with families trying to be funny but failing slightly.
