Admittedly nah, didn't realise the cameras were hidden. And as I said I only saw 10 minutes (where matey was punched by bikers).

We all know many of these stnuc harbour racist opinions and do stupid things. I was just pointing out that it's a bit naive to walk up to them, or stand your ground as the guy did, and expect anything other than a chav-like response - white or otherwise. It's a depressing truth. You think I'm sticking up for them, or I like the state of society? Course not! My girlfriend's Indian and she's had her share of 'gyp' from ignorant people over the years.

And sorry about the bad spelling there firky. I somtimes judge people on their spelling too, although I'm not such a pedantic twat about it :P

The confrontation you saw was after the lads had already got to recognise his face and were routinely abusing him everytime he left his house (they hung out on the corner of the road that the couple lived on). They got their first abuse in the street the day they moved in and they didn't seem to invite it.

I know this kind of stuff happens and I agree that it's often not best to stand your ground, but it doesn't change the fact that it's shocking and needs to be stamped out. Allsorts of bad things happen routinely, that's no reason not to make the effort to stop them.

Agree 100%. Yeah, it is shocking and needs to be stamped out. I'm not sure why you feel the need to imply that I don't want to though? I challenge racists more than most, seriously! Just not ones who might punch me, lol.

ANYWAY! I don't wanna be arguing with fellow dubsteppers. Think from now on I'll stick to production and dubs and leave politics n shit for another forum!
