I pointed out that this was indeed racist. 

 

Perhaps you should follow a thread more carefully. 

 

 

Are you intentionally confusing this issue? 

 

I responded to your post of his post and not to your post of the post he responded to questioning racism.

America - One American man - Two American men - Two Americans

England -  One English man - Two English men - Two English (doesn't sound right)

France - One French man - Two French men - Two French

Nigeria - One Nigerian man - Two Nigerian men - Two Nigerians 

Niger - One  Nigerien man - Two Nigerien men - Two Nigeriens surely it can't be Niger and Nigers? 

Niger is the only country whose name ends in 'er'?

No. You are not following the thread. 

 

Deliberatly i suspect. 

 

I said the post KK defended and quoted as being not racist, was indeed racist.

 

To call for a ban on all citizens of some African countries, the implication they are most likely criminals (ok he didn't say Nigeria/west Africa so I shouldn't have put that in. Though I am sure that's what he meant) is racist. 

 

 

Read the thread.

I did not say KK's post was racist. 

 

Read the thread. 

 

If, in fact, it is the way you say then I have no further grounds to be deeply offended which means the strength of your view is once again unconfirmed.

 

My apology.

chips or swipe, there is nothing that prevents unauthorized people from using a credit card.  Here in the USA you just swipe the card or insert it.  The pop up screen may ask you to digitally sign it. No problem.  One can scribble anything. It does not check anything in realtime.  Goodness, the credit cards should at least ask for a PIN just as ATM or debit cards do.

How sad. 

 

He'd be shaking like a paint mixer if he said that out loud and a black person heard him.

I once saw a black guy slowly and deliberately take a farang apart on Sukhumvit soi 5 after the guy had used a racist insult.

It was mesmerising but I couldn't help but pity him when he literally started begging for his life.

Why be so obnoxious??  He made a mistake, or may not be really knowledgeable, OR just perhaps the press got It wrong, reporting Niger In lieu of  I Nigeria.  He may have read elsewhere they were Nigerians?  Life's too short to go on the attack on a triviality.

 

I chose to match the disdainful tone of his post when he suggested the authorities ought to be more vigilant purely on the basis of nationality.

Going by all the heinous crimes committed by Westerners here, one wouldn't be surprised if the authorities tightened up on Brits, yanks and Europeans.

Did the Niger have a shopping list to accompany all these cards? 

 

It would be nearly impossible to remember all those details? 

 

A shopping list might support his claim...at the moment I am having trouble believing this was all innocent.

 

I would have assumed that they would have all wanted the same thing, Like the latest Rolex watch...lol

 

Pretty easy to remember.

"Police arrested three men from Niger on Tuesday"

 

Niger, officially the Republic of Niger, is a landlocked country in Western Africa, named after the Niger River. 

 

Nigeria, an African country on the Gulf of Guinea, 

The common demominator being that both countries are full of scammers.....

"Realism", the magic word racists found to fool themselves, and only themselves, into believing the brutality of their prejudices is some kind of wisdom.

By definition of your post you are not a racist, you are an Ignorant Racist.  

 

How many people have been stopped smuggling drugs into and out of Thailand, did you once ever question their skin colour. No they were just drug scum, so why when you see a a person bringing credit cards that are probably stolen, do you say, ban them.  

 

More drug offenders are probably from my Country (UK) or from Australia or Europe, so why not say,

Nigeria and Niger are two separate Countries.

[autanic]

Can any point out to the Thai Police, that Niger is a dangerous Country. There is a virtual travel ban throughout the Country of Niger and this means that goods and services cannot flow freely. 

 

These two men, were performing a public service by collected as many credit and debit card for and on behalf of willing buyers to purchase essential goods from Thailand. 

In order avoid confusion different cards would be used for purchasing on behalf of their owners.

 

They were performing this selfless public service and should be allowed to just go on their way with an apology for their delay.

To the posters that thing Niger is a racist slur, the one they are thinking about has two g's in it, somtimes ending with a 'gra' rather than a 'ger'  no mater what - you'd get your ass kicked or shot in my old neighborhood saying any one of them..................

These people regard themselves as some kind of gold standard of visitor or immigrant in Thailand.

As far as they're concerned, only non-white foreigners commit crimes here.

There's a direct correlation between the bigoted and racist views being expressed here and the fact that most of those holding them are from the lower levels of the socio-economic scale in their homelands.

Can I explain a common misconception here.

 

When a Black person is calling another Black person a N----R, or like "whats up my N---R", he or she is using the word as if to say, I am better than you. The opposite to calling someone Sir. 

 

However as most people including some Black people use the word is it meant as a racist slur, as in " He is a f===g N----R.".

 

This is a common misconception that one is OK and the other is not. In actual fact neither is acceptable. As one is showing superiority over another by using the word and the other is making a racial slur. Either way, being called a N---R isnt very nice.

Interesting documentary 

 

 

Also this could be a racialist problem and not a racist problem. Should Neo-Nazi's From England be let into Thailand? Should football supporters from England be let into Thailand? Should Jehovah Witnesses from England be let into Thailand? Should Afro-Caribbean, Afro-american or British Blacks be let in?  There are almost infinite subtle variations in ethnic groups and thousands of different ethnic groups - all with positive and negative traits - This is no different with Niger. 
Should Niger criminals be let into Thailand - no.

Should Black criminals of any ethnic group be let in? - No--

Should English criminals be let in? - No.  

Should white criminals of any ethnic group be let in? No - 

Should law abiding citizens who are respectful of Thai culture of any ethnic group be let in? Yes

(Except for French Canadians of course)
