But it wouldn't be so far fetched this, this is the second British show to do this after the mini series dancing on the edge, it is set 1930s and it is about a black jazz band that becomes entangled in the aristocratic world. And no one in the UK has said it is historically inaccurate.

They should i mean here in the UK when Mitt Romney came to the UK so many Conservatives were ripping into him and his party for being backwards. However the Republicans said some disgusting things during election and still regained the House.

As a British person i am shocked that VAWA went away. It is great that it was reinstated but wow, and the 138 people who voted against this, they should be named and shamed, like they were in the UK when they were voting on gay marriage. If your going to be a bigot you should face backlash.

I am sure, assuming you are a person near the top of the socially acceptable ladder, this entire system seems fantastic. Nope not white, English is not my first language and poor, so not top of the socially accepted ladder, actually bottom. But the Birmingham race riots were in 05 in the UK people are becoming more…

But they are not sending home a letter only to "Fat" kids Jezebel they are doing for underweight children as well. Funny how you only find that offensive.

They do not have an issue with Spanish people because they are not banning them and the fact you compared it to Jim Crowe who was NOT allowed in is wrong. Here in the UK we have Polish shops and Sari Shops and they say owned by so and so, it is not the same as racial segregation it is part multiculturalism that so…

Yep and now America is taking over the British Empire but they are invading with Drones. I find it weird how no one is calling out Obama for use of Drones.

Yep and the way some Canadians treat Natives and Asians is awful. My friend was called Paki ( like the n- word against anyone is brown.) a lot of times and she said the racism was like the UK. But hate speech is not as strict as the UK. Every country have their racist it is just how society deals with them.

a white sign, that the establishment was "British Owned and Operated". So were Spanish people not allowed in because stating that it was owned by British people is not at all like Jim Crowe. Hate speech may not stop racism, but it does stop SOME people giving me racial abuse and if they do they are punished if i…

But in America it is not used in that way " Oh i was gypped" like they were ripped off. There may be two ways it is used but a lot of times it is used like that. Especially in America, in the UK it may be different but in America i saw it used that way a lot. Are you British or American?

There was someone on twitter from xoxo Jane, i think it was the editor and she did not find it offensive. However she got offended when Rush Limbaugh called Sandra Fluke a slut, it shows that when it come to a black child that she and others like Jezebel who is writing an article on why the word cunt is okay are…

Like i said Gypsy and the word Paki, i saw a lot of people in America who did not think it was offensive because it is not as bad as the N word when it is. Also the term Gypped or Jipped is offensive because it used when someone has been ripped off, because Romani ( the correct term, they view Gypsy as a racial slur.)…

Did i say everyone, i said it "CAN" get you arrested. As a brown person living in the UK and have lived in America i found that Americans are way more racist towards me and British people are racist behind closed doors. But as someone who has also lived in Australia i found more racist than both of those countries. …

But here in the UK the connections with Cunt and a women is not really applied. Using the words pussy and bitch are because it viewed like they are insulting their masculinity. However in America using the term Gypsy is a racial slur but so many people use it because it does not have the same connotations . I find…

Question are you white by any chance, because a POC i love hate speech laws and i find that most people who are against it are mad that they can not be racist.

*CLAPS* This has to be the best comment in this section, and the fact with a lot of vocal white feminists there has been a lot of double standards, they attack Rush Limbaugh when he called Sandra Fluke a slut and now it is against a confident black child (which they label obnoxious and cocky, because that is what…

How is it the worst. I see no problem with and none of my friends do. There has been no outrage or marching the streets in the UK, so i guess the British public is okay with it. Are you British by any chance.

I agree and all the white feminist that are defending the onion is disgusting, and the amount of hate Quvenzhane Wallis gets for being confident is branded cocky and arrogant because heavens forbid a black child/women is confident, but no matter what they will be knocked down by society.

What racial terms i live in the UK and anyone that says a racial term can get arrested. I saw more racism in America because of freedom of speech, does not mean it is more racist just there is no consequences for being racist.

Fine the word Cunt in my eyes is okay, but saying it to 9 year old girl is disgusting. And what is equally disgusting is the white feminist over at xoxo Jane defended and did not anything wrong with it on her twitter, but got outraged when Rush Limbaugh called Sandra Fluke a slut.
