George Galloway on institutionalised racism (and calls a caller thick!)

Go to 1:30 for the racism bit. The two are talking about Jimmy Hoffa before the racism thing.

To put it simply, there is no white man association in the police force is because the vast majority of British people are white (95% according to George Galloway).

He then calls the caller thick for asking such a question.

Because unlike the right-leaning shows that would entertain these ideas, bigotry is not supported by Galloway. I like the fact that he doesn't feel the need to debate these fools and mocks them and talks over them. They do not deserve anyone's time of day.

@downiefid There isnt a problem. The far right seem to think they should be given the right to say whatever they like even if it is completely false.

[7jem331]

@downiefid Clearly you didnt understand the answer either.

Calling a caller thick?  Pretty much the low standard of comment you'd expect from the likes of Galloway.

Yet again Galloway shows his stupidty and his willingless to 'debate' only when he has a mute button to hand.

There is an incredible amount of anti-white racism in this country. Only the media and the political elite choose not to indulge it with the same level of publicity as anti-black racism.

@yington

Yeah but he just refuted the callers points, and then called him thick. I'm an American so I assume 'thick' means thick headed or ignorant.

[ihatelifejosemartine]

I can when I hear it and that's exactly what I hear from this guy asking such a question. There's never going to be an all-White police association because Whites make up the overwhelming majority and have oppressed the ethnic minorities for no reason other than their sin color is not the same. Institutionalized racism my friend... see the word R-A-C-I-S-M? It's still racist no matter what.

[yington]

And the caller was blatantly racist because .. ?

Don't throw around words like "bigotry" and "racist" aimlessly. It devalues the words, and merely shows your inability to engage in proper debate. Resorting to insults merely reveals a lack of intelligence.

[downiefid]

Mr Galloway said the man was thick. Sounds to me like he was correct - where is the problem.

[ihatelifejosemartine]

Because blatant bigotry is not something that has any place in society. Sorry. I choose not to discriminate, nor give racists any time of day, and thankfully, neither does George.
