vogie Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Why didn't they just say that a coloured man had been fished out of the Klong, and surely nobody would have been offended. Depending on what colour he was of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I'm thinking that Thais maybe more savvy that all the detractors think as they know the difference between say Indians and Africans. So to say a Dark skinned Westerner maybe considered polite is some circles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post milwaukeeboy Posted April 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2018 Skin shade is a descriptive characteristic. People who think "racist" first need psychological help, IMHO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, after all T.I.TV Why would you think it was an Afro American car. That really is racist. It could be a Afro Japanese car or how about a Jaguar, they are Indian owned now..... Well, @sanemax replied to how I should describe the robbers escape car's color (black). And actually it made sense:). Had nothing to do with Japanese car or Jaguar. In Sweden we soon will not be able to buy Gato Negro from Chile. This color thing really got out of hand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it OK that they said it was a male? That might be "sexist". Or that it was a "farang", racist?

josephbloggs Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 What a ridiculously pathetic thread of replies, even for TV. Someone actually drowned in that cesspit of a khlong. And someone jumped in to try and save them which is pretty heroic. But none of that here; just petty squabbles, some latent racism and lots of nonsense, how sad. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You what??? I see many crime reports from the UK where there is no description of the perp, other than gender. This, even when the witness or victim must be able to provide it, like if they spoke to or saw the perp. It seems like they're trying to hide something for political reasons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A black man with a passport of a western country OR a a tanned caucasian? Anyone's guess. Due to the condition of the water he was probably a different colour when he fell in anyway.

Sealbash Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Exactly, some people got upset regarding the colour. If i was robbed and the dude escaped in a black car, should I just say -he escaped in a car?Do black cars matter?Sent from my iPad using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berybert Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 If this person turns out to tanned Mediterranean then all those screaming racism and going to look extremely racist. But then those who shout the loudest normally are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atyclb Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 to all the politically correct a question is posed; if you and or your family were robbed or assaulted by one or more men would you refuse to tell investigators if they were asian, caucasian, black ?? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
