No, It shoud be "What do you call a knacker with no legs and no arms who has a watch?"

If he has legs/arms, youd be better off callin him by his God-given christian name:D

Racist : Prejudice based on race.
Prejudice : An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts.

Surly it's Racist to assume the whole community are hard working...

Most of the times I don't mind stuff like this thread, but now it's getting really out of hand.

Thievin' Gypsies

That IS offending, and it's not funny at all. Hence, it should be removed.

Who laughs when reading something like "Thievin Gypsies"??

Shut up you spastics. It's the mods job to enforce the rules, not yours.

You should remove the posts that are straight out racist. Gypsies ARE a race, and that makes those post racist!
Heck, I find those posts offending, and I'm not a gypsie ... or a knacker...

You are half Right. Gypsies came to Ireland in the 1600's or there about. Today’s' incarnation of the "gypsies" are a mangled breed of irish/spanish/english/themselves

[on this point I’m not joking, it’s a honour for one of the members of the travelling community to marry their cousin/brother/sister]

As for the racism of this thread...well I’ve a problem with people's definition of racism anyway. in my view racism goes both ways both positive and negative. yet people concentrate on the negative.

Speaking from personal experience I’ve yet to meet an honest hardworking "traveller" of my own age.

it seems that the old breed of tin smiths/knackers have died out. They were the ones who actually worked. With them I have no problem.

Today I believe the definition of knacker refers to groups of undesirable youths. pretty much in the same vein as blackguard! it does not specifically refer to a member of the travelling community.

bizmark

wouldn't it be rasict against the majority to blindly ignore those in the minority who (and lets be honest) are completely useless and only destory places where they "travel" to and break laws

Travelers are not a respectable part of our society and just because political correctness says so doesn't mean they are

Exit

This is a ****ing disgusting little thread here, isn't it?

bizmark

well yes its totaly out of place for the humour forum

Sarky

I don't get it.

what gets me is there has been 2 moderators mosting replies here. and i am yet to see a "thread closed" anywhere....

Racism is a major problem facing our society.
pointing out racism on travellers is the same as the racism on english,scottish,welsh or any foreign people in this country.

i wonder when an admin will notice this thread and step in with the powers that have been entrusted with them by the leading mods...

LOL @ the last god knows how many posts.

even irish tourism sites warn of knackers, as I have always posted in this thread: http://www.local.ie/content/41127.shtml/about_ireland/society/language


There is such thing as being overly-pc you know...

If you have such a problem withthe mod's of this forum why dont you just PM a more senior Mod like DeVore or Gandalf

Sorry if I offend you but I call a spade a spade. Tinkies are for the mostpart dirty thieves and although stating that isn't exactly funny it's still true.

On afunny note my granny used to say of them: "They'd rob the eye out of your head and then come back for the lash..."

So its ok for you to call people knackers and gypsie's but no one else? theifing Gypsies, Isn't that mutually inclusive. I mean you're not a gypsie unless your a theifing gypsie, in the same way your not a traveller unless your a scumbag breaking the law and estroying property. Travellers are asked to obay the same laws the rest of us are and you people call it racism. when the gardi go in you call it racism. How many times have the gardi stood back and watched knackers destroy land a property simply because they didn't want to be called racist. If you love knackers so much why don't you open up your own home to them.

muffen

Wow.. Skanger.. can you read at all?

So its ok for you to call people knackers and gypsie's but no one else?

Where did I say that?

I mean you're not a gypsie unless your a theifing gypsie, in the same way your not a traveller unless your a scumbag breaking the law and estroying property.

Every single Gypsie on this planet steals?
Every single traveller on the planet breaks laws and destroys things?

Travellers are asked to obay the same laws the rest of us are and you people call it racism.

Ehh... that statement is so dumb I'm having problems thinking of something to say. What I said was that I do not believe that a post, which says only something like "thievin Gypsies", belongs in a humor forum. Nowhere is anyone asking them to follow laws, people are simply bashing them with stupid statements. Again, this does NOT belong in a humor forum!!

How many times have the gardi stood back and watched knackers destroy land a property simply because they didn't want to be called racist

I don't have a clue, but you know what, I am 100% sure that you don't have any stats on that either!! So, even if that question was retorical, it wasn't a very good argument. Unless, of course, you are going to show me stats to support the claim that the gardi stands back when property is being destroyed infront of their nose, repeatedly!

If you love knackers so much why don't you open up your own home to them.

That's your conclusion? Because I think that some posts in this thread does not belong in a humor forum, I "love knackers"?????
You do know that there is a big thing inbetween love and hate, don't you? Just because you don't hate something doesn't mean that you love it.

Look, your entire post is, well, in lack of better words, insanely stupid. More than half the things you said were only because you wanted to argue with me, they weren't based on anything I had said in my post.
If you wanna argue, that's fine, but stick to facts...

My question to you, do you really believe a post that says Thievin Gypsies belong in a humor forum (regardless of what you think of Gypsies, does it belong in the HUMOR forum???).

Tinkies are for the mostpart dirty thieves and although stating that isn't exactly funny it's still true.

That may be as it is, but it doesn't belong in the humor forum. When I read the humor forum, I expect to laugh (or shake my head thinking the joke wasn't funny at all). After reading this thread, I didn't really feel like reading any jokes... and that's not how it should be in the humor forum.

the mods you speak of dont have any control over this forum? same with me...

personally threads like this dont bother me, its rare that i see a gypsy that isnt begging for money or grabbing onto someone, they use every filthy trick in the book which sometimes even involves cruelty to children just so they can make some money..

"they would rob your eyes and come back for your eyelashes" is what my dad used to tell me, was told to steer clear and he was right..

Ive never met an honest one yet in all the countries ive been to

am i racist? no far from it, i just done like their race because from what ive seen and believe they put in absoloutley no good to humanity in itself.

call me racist if you wish, i couldnt give a damn personally. I know my own feelings and am not scared to show them and ive known plenty of lovely people of different race, you earn my respect by showing some, gypsies show none therefore deserve none in return. (if that makes sense?)

silverside

I'm not particularly pro-traveller and can see why many people would object to certain things they do.

However I am amazed that this thread has been allowed to continue so long - if equivalent comments were being made against homosexuals or blacks I am sure this thread would have been deleted long ago.

Would any moderators care to comment?

Sarky

Isn't a major part of "Gypsie" philosophy or way of life that other people provide for them? It would be rather silly to think that this sort of thinking can live hand in hand with most any other society.

I do believe that you should be a little "flexible" when it comes to humor, and I really have no problem with that.

My complaint is the posts that say stuff like "Thievin Gypsies" (it's not funny so it doesn't belong in this forum!!).

Everything now is a debate, and it's far from funny, so regardless of anyones opinion about Gypsies, what is this thread doing in this forum?

Peace

Well we haven't recieved any complaints from the gypsies (theiving or not) so maybe you ladies a little over sensitive?

they might be able to steal a pc ect, but you can't possibly get the internet in a caravan.

muffen

but you can't possibly get the internet in a caravan.

Ofcourse you can. I've been in the middle of the desert and had Internet

Ro: maaan!

Surely by sayin' "Thievin Gypsies" it is in fact specifying gypsies that thieve. If the statement was "All gypsies", I can see how that could be considered racist.

Atreides

Being a traveller or being a gypsie is away of life not a race, and that way of life revolves around being theifing law breaking scum. Sorry but its ture. YOu ask me for stat's Do you really think the CSO would keep that type of thing, do you really think its something the gardi like to admitt to? No it isn't. Travellers occupy land that doesn't belong to them, fill it full of ****e and then move on after detroying the area. If you don't do that, then your just a bloke with a caravan, your not a traveller. You say that arguement is so dumb, wow well done super come back.

You must have loads of time on your hands to worry about a thread so much. If it's so unfunny to you then don't laugh. Whether this knacker chat belongs in here or not - bitching about it certainly isn't funny and by your own logic doesn't belong here either.

A crime fighter.

Gone wayyyyy off topic - time to shut it down

And by the way, if anyone has a problem with a thread or post, there is a link at the botton of each post marked "report". If you click that, I, Kharn and the admins get an email, and then we have a look at it. Unfortunately, with the best will in the world, I don't get to read every single post here, and boy am I glad:rolleyes:

I have just read this thread through, and I have the following to say - Knacker jokes can be considered racist when they are referring to members of the travelling community. If they refer to an obnoxious citizen as in "you little knacker" then it is not racist. Racism will not be tolerated in any shape or form on this board.

In light of this, please read below:

Tuts - the "no offence intended" can not be used as a get out of jail card - banned for a week

Slave1, KilOit, Skanger,G, Stormfox1020 and JabbaTheGut - banned for a week

Utility - any more remarks like that and you are banned for a month.
