Frankie 505 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Given their offence at Rangers fans the other night, perhaps they'd care to explain their position on the following terms they like to use?1. http://www.facebook.com/arabtrust1909/posts/132549293423506Rumoured opening day fixtures:- Us v Killie, Accies v Celtic, Jambo h*** v Aberdeen, ICT v Motherwell, h*** v Hibs and St. M v St.j2. http://www.facebook.com/arabtrust1909/posts/119375364747723Tina Turner 'The Best' has dropped from the entire top 40, oh well, the h*** didn't quite get the chance to validate their SPL Championship via the charts. With refs like the one yesterday, is it any wonder the h*** won it? Whilst I'm on the subject, really gotta love Reggie Yates and the 'Oh my God, init' way he talks:- ''Tixt in wiv wot you fink''.3. http://twitter.com/#!/RobertJohnBrown/status/47739676852895744We owe the 'DIET-h***' a hiding after their gloating last time round......2-1 to United (only because we're knackered!@ 70%)Hmmmm!PS: Thanks to jcdgow on Twitter for the info!

TheNuts 552 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 great work Frankie.however, H** is a word used too commonly today, and has been used for too long without any clamp down on it, that it is deemed acceptable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DietofWorms 2,067 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 H*n clearly is sectarian. The arguement that it is only used to describe Rangers fans doesn't cut it. It is used as a derogatory term for Protestant and everyone knows it...by the way it doesn't really offend me but I am now prepared to say it does, just like they do.

Wienblue 26 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 It is about 'perception' and how you perceive the reference to be. If you consider it derogatory therein lies the offence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILL.I.AM 18 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Even if it isn't sectarian why should people get away with it just because it's nothing to do with religion? It's still used in a derogatory way which is made to cause offence.Fed up reading and listening to these inbred cunts making sectarianism out to be worse than shaggin children or or blowing them up in terrorist attacks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 You'll never get anyone to acknowledge that H** is sectarian, as much as we know it should be.Yes we can - and I'll repeat something I've stated elsewhere.The Fe.nians of the present day campaigned to get the word "F.enian" which describes "a member of an Irish revolutionary organisation founded in the U.S. in the 19th Century to fight for an Independent Ireland" to be noted in the Dictionary (I have the Collins English Dictionary) as "Derogatory, offensive. an Irish Catholic or a person of Irish Catholic descent."They call themselves F.enians but scream from the rooftops when described as thus.We need to campaign to any and all Dictionary providers and any and all Internet sites that the 'H.un" word is both a derogatory and sectarian epithet towards Protestants and Rangers supporters (by dint) the world over.Fight fire with fire I say.
