Back tracking now. Typically cowardly response from you. Are you ashamed you called Danny Welbeck a coon?
Edit, it was actually Raheem Sterling he called a coon.
Incorrect.

Racism is hard wired into the brain
White people have less empathy for brown people.

The human brain fires differently when dealing with people outside of one’s own race, according to new research out of the University of Toronto Scarborough.
This research, conducted by social neuroscientists at U of T Scarborough, explored the sensitivity of the “mirror-neuron-system” to race and ethnicity. The researchers had study participants view a series of videos while hooked up to electroencephalogram (EEG) machines. The participants – all white – watched simple videos in which men of different races picked up a glass and took a sip of water. They watched white, black, South Asian and East Asian men perform the task.
Typically, when people observe others perform a simple task, their motor cortex region fires similarly to when they are performing the task themselves. However, the UofT research team, led by PhD student Jennifer Gutsell and Assistant Professor Dr. Michael Inzlicht, found that participants’ motor cortex was significantly less likely to fire when they watched the visible minority men perform the simple task. In some cases when participants watched the non-white men performing the task, their brains actually registered as little activity as when they watched a blank screen.
“Previous research shows people are less likely to feel connected to people outside their own ethnic groups, and we wanted to know why,” says Gutsell. “What we found is that there is a basic difference in the way peoples’ brains react to those from other ethnic backgrounds. Observing someone of a different race produced significantly less motor-cortex activity than observing a person of one’s own race. In other words, people were less likely to mentally simulate the actions of other-race than same-race people”
The trend was even more pronounced for participants who scored high on a test measuring subtle racism, says Gutsell.
“The so-called mirror-neuron-system is thought to be an important building block for empathy by allowing people to ‘mirror’ other people’s actions and emotions; our research indicates that this basic building block is less reactive to people who belong to a different race than you,” says Inzlicht.
However, the team says cognitive perspective taking exercises, for example, can increase empathy and understanding, thereby offering hope to reduce prejudice. Gutsell and Inzlicht are now investigating if this form of perspective-taking can have measurable effects in the brain.
The team’s findings are published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology.[/I]

they all look the same to you i suppose, racist wanker
I presume this is about Ray Rice? Black on black violence doesn’t count.
I don’t like the french
No, I just got the two of them mixed up. But the point stands. You proud of yourself for calling him a coon?
It’s all part of the rap strategy to sell records
[QUOTE=“Nick Rivers, post: 1013877, member: 2763”]Disliking somebody solely because of their racial background is just ridiculous and this type of mentality is stone-age stupid. That being said, I’m somewhat mystified by the great PC quest to control language. Language is dynamic, uncontrollable and unpredictable.
The attempt to control language is sport is just laughable. Sport is where everyone lets loose and anything goes. During my time playing sport of various codes I’ve regularly being called a bastard, a faggot, a prick, a dickhead, ect. When I had a shaved head I was called a baldy fucker and when I had a smeg I was called a fanny-faced fucker. If I was short I’d probably be called a short-arse fucker and if I was very tall I’d be called a lanky fucker. I never got worked up by anything I was ever called and if I was black it would just stand to reason that I’d probably be called a black fucker. I can’t see how one type of on-field insult is any worse than another and I think the efforts to ‘stamp out racism’ are even more futile than the ‘war on drugs’ malarkey. The only end result of decades of ‘give racism the red card’, and so forth, is to turn words like nigger, coon and chink into superwords that are bound to stick around because everyone is paying so much attention to them. If nobody had paid much attention to racist chants and racist language I’m pretty sure that the whole thing would have become boring.[/QUOTE]
You have a point actually the way lanky people and fellas with smigs were sold into slavery and denied their human rights for hundreds of years is a stain on history.

[QUOTE=“artfoley, post: 1013882, member: 179”]You peddling this nonsense again? For the record and your 4 inch thick skull, he was never convicted of anything. A FA Disciplinary body does not a court of law or conviction make, nor did the police press charges which may have resulted in a conviction.
If you want to experience real racism then look no further than your own doorstep in clare with racist attacks, arson etc[/QUOTE]
I suppose because he was never convicted of biting that didn’t happen either, did it?
I worked on it during the 2009-2012 period and saved it in my ‘potential threads relating to racism’ folder.
When Paul McGrath was asked about playing under big bad racist Ron Atkinson he said that Ron used to play practice matches featuring blacks against whites. He’d usually say something like ‘you coons against us lot’ and everyone would laugh. Ron played more black players than most other managers in the 90s.
Ever notice that there are so few black managers in English football? Now that is racism although you can be sure that all club chairmen and club owners use nice PC words.
WTF? 
your some filthy cunt “got the 2 of them mixed up”…
anyway, i said that Sterling reminded me of a central figure from a popular British movie from the 70’s, maybe i should have put it in the lookalikes thread
what’s your point?
