  • I am glad I found this.  I never realized how damn intelligent you are.

  • I saw tram video.

    I commented on it.

    The lady reflects the

    lack of communication

    between the races.

    However, there are many

    who promote tolerance - such

    as my 54 videos.

  • Choclate rain Da da Da da Da Da da da da Choclate rain

  • we already have a "boundary policy". and if you break it, you get an ASBO.

  • Well stated

  • I have friends who are British like me, Asian, Turkish, Polish, Russian, and I've never thought once that problems are their fault. They're all nice people :)

  • awesome tay thanks buddy

  • What hes talking about reminds me of segregration??? Idk..

  • Your voice just relaxes me.

  • @ComedicRetards gay lol

  • It's been removed. No...

  • Well, doesnt give me a bad name, Im scottish, not brittish

  • Gorgeous speaking voice!!!

  • That's bullshit. Racist is not about power. That's blacks "own" personal definition of racist so that they can't say they're racist, but they are the most racist bunch around the globe.

  • @11Sept2001 Are you sure about that? Or maybe the truth just hurt?

  • just give up the race shit! dam .. but sing choclate rain now .. thats in my deep voice

  • Good points, all.

    In Canada, if someone were to be that obnoxious in any context on a train, they would likely be hauled off by transit cops at the next stop...

  • What I've learned is that racism is a type of prejudice and the belief of other race stereotypes and degradations while racial discrimination is the denial of rights to minority races. Soooo yeah, she's definitely a racist thinking dark skinned British people aren't British, but she didn't have the power to discriminate against them, she's not the govt, she can't kick them out of the country. It's a good thing she was powerless in her situation, she's a real idiot.

  • @KirbyFanDude Brilliant post!!

  • I kinda disagree with you Tay.

    Racism to me is a type of prejudice. Where prejudice generally refers to negative judgement that people form, racism is a specific kind of prejudice that's based on ethnicity (as opposed to other kinds of prejudice such as sexism or elitism). There doesn't need to be any power behind racism, just the belief that you're better (or should hold more privilege) than another group based on ethnicity. The power simply makes racism more dangerous.

    (just my opinion)

  • You have a beautiful voice. Have you considered radio? 

  • CHOCOLATE RAIN !

  • Yep yu look exactly like my bestfriend Greg still creeeeepppppyyyyy

  • I disagree that racism connotes power. Racism - to me - is simply prejudice based on a person's ethnicity.

  • She puts a bad name to all British people. Just like ignorant hillbillies put bad names on us Americans.

    It just goes to prove: stupid people are everywhere. Nothing more, nothing less.

  • Your voice.

    Your actual voice, Tay.

    On the subject though, I'm British and I am so passionately against prejudice and racism. This video actually made me feel genuinely angry. I don't understand why people are like that. It just doesn't occur to me why black people are seen to some as a minority or as a sub species. It just makes me so angry that someone from my country, from my race has shown such vile and disgusting behaviour in public. It really paints us in an un flattering light. Ugh.

  • Just followed the link and saw the video. It's vile, and I have to say she's a tarnish on the human race. However, I disagree with you a bit- I think the assumption that racism implies political power confuses the issue. Institutionalized racism DOES, which is the major stronghold of racism, but the institution has to come from somewhere and where it comes from is racist assumptions and people. Thats why so called reverse racism is still just racism. One can be racist and have no power.

  • Your voice makes my Subwoofer go wub wub wub

  • Well spoken Tay.

  • you're really smart, I don't know why people just view you as an awesome voice, although your voice is awesome, I think you should do more opinion videos :D

  • As an American can I tell the British actors in America to go back to their damn Country. They taking all our jobs, send simon cowell, the beckhams and all the other British working in my deparment, everyone of them working here is depriving good american of their job. lol

  • Well every1 has the power to potentially make some1 feel bad. And if offensive racial remarks are how some1 does it then i think thats racism

  • You should just be on the radio...

  • I think its unfair for brits to start being stereotyped with this woman.

  • Barry White's lil cousin..

  • he's like jeff golblum!

  • you would be great as a news caster!

  • I live in Britain, and even though people are fucking racist, it is not as bad as it appears in the video.

  • If some german guy does that, nobody accepts "Oh, we're definitely not all like that.", they just go on bashing. Just sayin'.

  • Dude, Really, You have to go to the News Team!! :D

  • @tayvox please play kingdom heroes

  • for the record, not all Brits are like that woman...

  • O_O I think your disecting this alil too much though. LOL.. but i get what you sayin.. kinda lol

  • @ehop22 He's not dissecting this or over analyzing it. He is trying to give you an intelligent and informed reaction rather than a knee-jerk reaction. He is saying take a look at the larger issues of immigration, social welfare, personal prejudice, racisim and how these apply and inform the situation. Unlike some peoples, he seems actually to have read a book.

  • wohaha Ive just clicked on your video... is this your actual voice???

  • I'm British and that peasant women puts a bad name on us all. We're not all like that. I just feel sorry for the little lad on her lap having to be subjected to such foulness. I hope one day he brings home a coloured girl or boy.

  • @ruhulaminutube does calling her a peasant women do justice to whatever you are trying to say?

  • @ruhulaminutube I don't think she gives us a bad name, I think everyone else on that tram gives us a bad name. Not one person stood up to her properly. The woman who is shouting at her calls all British people lazy and just makes it worse, the woman near the end who stands up to her only does it because her baby was being woken up. The kid in the background pretended like he was going to do something because he noticed the camera.

    There is racism everywhere, but that cowardice is appalling.

  • Tay, you need a radio show. I'd listen all day.

  • I think she was still racist, not institutionally racist (because as you said that requires power), but the type of prejudice she has against other people, it's leaning more to the racial side. I think perhaps a more appropriate term would be "xenophobic".

  • She's a disgrace to English people, but then again so are most of them :P, also i love how she's shocked that LONDON, one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, has foreign people in it.

  • @brettsworld99 so are most british people? woooah there with the generalisations

  • @barney6323 maybe some of Scotland, but Cymru? nah, i can't imagine they would have a problem with foreigners.

  • @brettsworld99 whaat? dont really understand. as far as i know England has the most foreigners in the country, Wales and Scotland don't have many in my experience. No money there..

  • @barney6323 yeah, England is by far the most populated in the UK, so of course it has more Foreigners.

    and what do you mean by "no money there?"

  • @brettsworld99 There isn't as much money in those places. Cornwall, for example, is the poorest province in the UK, and has the lowest ratio of foreigners to natives. A foreigner is going to come here for a job, and jobs are hard to come by in deprived areas... thats what i mean.

  • @barney6323 Cornwall is part of England

  • @brettsworld99 its a province, i live there.

  • @barney6323 it's a county in England, unlike Cymru and Scotland and Northern Ireland which are countries in the UK, hay, i ain't happy about it, i want the UK to dissolve, that includes Cornwall.

  • @brettsworld99 We get it, you're Welsh, stop calling Wales Cymru, it's really wanky. And Wales is a principality, not a country :)

  • @barney6323 im not actually Cymraeg, i just prefer to use the Cymraeg word for Cymru, and i just went on to Wales(dot)com "Wales is not a Principality. Although we are joined with England by land, and we are part of Great Britain, Wales is a country in it's own right."

  • @brettsworld99 wales . com might be a bit biased about that

  • You ARE the next JAMES EARL JONES

  • she puts british people down but one person cant speak for the whole region just coz she is like that doesnt mean all brits are (im a brit and proud but im not racist i hav many friends from different origins)

  • @ravenhaired20 maybe i didn't choose my words correctly ("allowed to settle there").

    But your dad is what an immigrant should be. He worked hard for the benefit of his family.

    You don't have to be wealthy, being able to afford an apartment is fine too.

    But there are lots of immigrants that misuse flaws in the social security system.

  • I agree with all you said here, I agree the woman was being prejudiced and possibly racist to everyone not a genuine English person, she seemed to hate everyone not from the UK as she said "You are not English either" etc. I do understand there are too many foreign people coming to the UK that are staying there, as immigrants and this could lead to over population of mainland Britain, but I have no problems or dislike any one group of people and never ever would say things she said.

  • i agree with every word you said!!

  • Love your voice!! :)!

  • dude u are FKING AWSOME

  • Radio talk show voice, singing voice... You rock.

  • You're one of the most smart, talented person I know on YouTube. Politically educated, knows keyboard, sings awesome, speaks awesome... BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! Hehe.

    I agree with everything you said, I'd also like to clarify my points on racism. This term defines the act of discriminating against a biological order, in this case the one and only human race! We've brought this term so far out of context to discriminate people's melanin composition, hair color, religion, etc... -___-

  • I think she is just disgruntled, but also too stupid to properly express herself.

  • Interesting perspective

  • by definition, racism is generalizing an entire race. You could say "all Mexicans are very nice and smart people" That may not be offensive but it is still racism.

    Power doesn't come into it.

  • @noahjell Mexicans are very nice and smart people

  • Hate is hate regardless of what we choose to label it, how we choose to express it, or with which circumstances/laws/religion we attempt to justify it.

  • 303rd viewer. REMEMBER ME.

  • racism is one race is superior than another race.

  • I've had farily good tram experiences in my life time, the leaves are usually turning orange when I go on the tram, but then generally a pretty open crows can usually be found at Sundance, odd because it's close to Utah county which has one of the highest level of republicans in the country, which can be difficult when you are liberal

  • Another thing I believe this brings up is the boundaries of free speech. I personally do not believe in the "absolute freedom of speech". Thoughts, anyone?

  • stupid britts

    

  • @gamerspartans It isn't the case of "stupid brits", it's the case of completely archaic thinking. I.E; Thinking that anyone of any culture but your country's culture shouldn't be there.

  • A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. ... Ergo.... Shoot the fucker who's in "your" space.... :D

  • I saw the thumbnail and thought "Hey that looks like Tay Zonday!" And then I saw the name! Nice to hear your take on this. :)

  • Tay, you sound very educated and intelligent, the world needs more people like you!

  • @Olcarin stupid people consist 80% of the population D:

  • this guy beat the shit outta puberty!

  • SOMEONE IS SMARTICLE

  • wow...your voice..all i have to say. you need to look into being a radio personality, announcer. on the news(anchor), something like that. it is very Grand. i love it

  • And Tay i am with you. This woman is not rasict at all she is just one of the few who understands that economy like the British economy is falling because we are giving too much money to immigrants coming in to this country and it leaves many British people unemployed. Many immigrants i am not saying all immigrants are disrespectful to the british people like burning poppies and our government does nothing to back us up. That is just my point but summarised i agree with your view. All the way.

  • @Eddsaysftw edd, are you that daft? that woman on the tram understands very little and Tay, in no way, supported her actions

  • anyone got tissue????cuz i just jizzed from his voice!!!!

  • Please,run for prime minister. You gain my vote!

  • THIS NIGGA IS IGNORANT

  • @AnthonyPSNChampion Is he fuck. Leave Tay alone he is awesome and stop being racist, your making a fool of yourself.

  • After a while I was completely lost as to what you were talking about, like, I got the jest of it. But, I kept listen because of the sound of your voice. It just make me happy to listen to. Example, if anyone was to tell me I had one hour to live, I'd want it to be you.

  • Your voice.....it's just epic.

  • Your face looks like you are very helium, but your voice what comes inside is awesome and its very low pitch! : D

  • WTF! I didn't understand this whole video! XD

  • you should be on CNN

  • I do not know why..but i want you to read the Bible

  • If you were British and ran for Prime Minster...hell, I'd vote for you!

  • there are worse people in the world than her

  • racism is putting people at a disadvantage depending on their race

  • cool video 

  • ahhh his voice

  • Her being in poverty or not does not effect if she can be racist. Racism is when you discriminate someones race which clearly did so you don't need to be in a certain powerful position to discriminate someone.

  • Political boundaries is an interesting issue but it's actually a series of elephants, not just one. I think the biggest one of the series is "can all opinions be expressed equally?", i.e. protesting. As being a connoisseur of many of these opinions and even 'theories', particularly about sovereignty, I would say addressing "tax protesters" really cuts to the heart of this issue and coincidentally enough many of these types are called racists by various institutions but never individuals.

  • I want you to be my real life narrator

  • I want you to be my real life narrator

  • Semi-true.

  • The definition of racism: racial prejudice or discrimination.

    Racism = Racial Prejudice. They are not 2 different things and you do not need power for it to take or have effect. Btw, if she was surrounded by the "right type of ppl" on the tram, then that's all one needs to have that said power whether if she was poor or not.

  • God I love your voice

  • Chocolate raaaaaiiin! :D

  • You need your own Radio show... Just puttin' that out there.

  • TAY please read me a bedtime story!

  • Tay Zonday. Op Ed Correspondent Extraordinaire! I vote him to replace almost anybody on FOX News.

  • under 100 club :D

  • the woman got arrested, so there ya go!

  • Comment removed

  • hoooooiiiiiiiiiihhhhhhhhhh

  • How old are you?

  • @dunose1 28 i think

  • I feel annoyed when someone shouts in the tram...i think that's just not polite...and i can't STAND it if someone judges someone by his or her looks.

  • Sadly i experienced a similar situation in one of our trams. But the "racist" in this scene was an old man which i think stopped learning new things at some point...he couldn't stand a afro american being in the same tram with him and he kind of "fell" out of the tram when the doors opened at the station,HE bumbed into the afro american(on purpose) and then shouted at the guy "how DARE you hit me you filthy bastard"...after he tried to hit him i called the police. But i still was shocked.

  • @SomehowCreative wow that is extremely disgusting behavior by the old man...I've never experienced anything like that in Canada and I hope never to do so. Of course we still have remnants of racism but for the most part Canadians have learned to celebrate the mosaic of different ethnicities that make up our country. Our government does a great job of denouncing any hateful or racist behavior and instead promotes a very peaceful environment. I'm glad I was born here :)

  • @ravenhaired20 Yes :( It was my first time too.This behavior is also illegal in Germany. It's in our Basic Constitutional Law. I grew up with the knowledge or more the attitude that every person should be treated equaly. I couldn't imagine a Germany with just..well...dunno,Whites or whatever...only Germans. That's the most boring thought ever. I have so many friends which have their roots in different countries and it's the variety that i love. May it be music or art or any other kind of culture

  • You know if I am on a train and someone is very loud, maybe just talking really loud or shouting to his friend 3 seats back for some weird reason, I feel unsafe. I really do. I think it has to do with that, it's not normal behaviour for someone to do that in public (if everone were going around screaming at eachother it would be a different story). So because of that, the enviroment around me, and my other fellow train riders lol, becomes "unstable" I guess.

    If you are on a train,just stfu lol

  • Tay, it's good to have you back.

    Really intelligent thoughts here.

  • She is right in some way. There are way more immigrants in the big cities like london, brussels, .. then there are people from that country.

    If you have money and you move to another country and get a job there, its ok.

    But if you are poor and immigrate to another country to benefit from the social security without working, you shouldn't be allowed in that country.

  • @Daxmau5 for the most part immigrants work extremely hard in order to provide for their families and move to countries like England, Canada etc because of the various opportunities available there (not only the social security)...my dad started with almost nothing when he came to Canada but studied hard and now works in a very prestigious law firm...I guess you would consider him wealthy and thus by your definition he should be "allowed to settle there"but think of the steps involved first...

  • I joke, very true, I'm glad someone has responded with a civil and intellectual argument.

  • English tram, ENGLISH TRAM

  • The other question is... Why did you steal my bike?

  • great video Tay.

  • Yes, that word is used to "broadbrush" a lot of social situations that really boil down to rude or boorish behavior/ language. That lady who confronted her pointing out the child hearing that showed class. I don't believe in censoring one's thoughts but one can control one's actions. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you".

  • yes, yes, yes. I hear ya.

  • She got arrested two days ago, she is also being trialed next week.

  • this was awsome your smart

  • @asandiegoguy Ya someone who can't spell 'awesome' and 'you're' right probably would think someone speaking common sense is smart.

  • @NeoCCG for what? Being racist? We have fucking black pride marches where I live and everyone cheers them on, and than when the white pride marches come by people fucking riot and protest.

    Fuck this gay Earth

  • @NeoCCG Good. I'm happy to hear that she's going to be on trial. I hope they show that video in court and I hope there are a few people of other ethnic backgrounds in the jury and that they throw the book at her. If it were up to me, she would get a bolt gun to the damn head as we have no need for that type of people in this day and age.

  • Actually its not being racist, being racist is when you don't let a person do something because of their skin colour or of their race

  • @OGISIMIC34 It is racist hating someone just because he has a different skin shade.

  • @OGISIMIC34 So what are racial slurs then?

  • :)

  • awkward moment when the top rated comment has more likes then the video

  • poop

  • The word is over used and more importantly, improperly used. Racism rarely exist. What we see today is nothing more then people voicing the dislike of improper behavior and those that behave improperly are offended when they are called out.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheJustinSalvanera You must also have several accounts to have received the thumbs up for a spam statement.

  • over 9000th mk?

  • What does your voice sound like with helium?

  • @Svetty00 I hope you meant that sarcastically.

  • @klingon13524 I'm genuinely curious with no offense intended. I know it's not related to this video but I just made the comment because I thought Tay would have a chance to read it since the video was just uploaded.

  • I love your hair :)

  • lol

  • Damn dude, you're smart

  • 6th

  • Could I know the name/link to the video? :)

    0:20 - 1:20 amen
