13,000 complaints to date
Such a shame as, in my view, it is 'crying wolf' and demeans real issues of racism. People will be much more cynical when a victim shouts racism in future.
I see it as common or garden playground ganging up by 'kids' of limited life-experience and intellect. It's Jade Goody as 'leader' FFS! Was it 'racist' to develop her mixed race nose into a pig's snout on newspaper front pages when she was on last? No! Just nasty, childish and bulling... Just the same as what is going on now with a very slightly annoying 'princess' who should never be allowed in the kitchen! But I know who I'd rather have dinner and conversation with [as long as it wasnt medium-rare drumsticks
].
I might just vote for the first time on BB - IF any of the other 'adults' stand up for her a little and tell the kids to chill. Wimps!

Racist ? Shilpa asked Jermaine about when he was married
"Is she black" she asked
"Of course!" he replied.
That to me is far more racist than anything coming from any other housemate, like its ludicrous to think he'd marry anyone who wasn't black.
They don't like her, simple as that. Big mouth showed her and Jade rowing and Shilpa was just shouting "SHut Up" at the top of her voice and Jade was shouting back. 6 of one half the dozen of the other.
The only racist people are the people saying its racist. If 2 people don't like each other then thats life, just because one of them happens to be an ethnic minority doesn't make it a racist situation. Personally if you think its racist its you thats making her race and heritage an issue when they obviously aren't, so you are the racist one in my eyes.
Jodie Marsh last year was subjected to a lot more abuse from Marrybore and that bloke/woman thing but nobody said much as she's not really a popular figure. 2 blokes arguing with 1 girl, nobody called it sexism.
Shilpa just needs to get a spine. She's obviously lived a very sheltered life and has said she's not used to people not being nice to her. Tough world out there love not all of us can have yes men and servants as company day in day out.
Jade sat with her the other night and talked calmly telling here everything she thought was wrong. Shilpa just sat there crying and the next day was "She was throwing abuse at me" which was just bollocks.
In the end everybody who agree's to go on BB and especially celeb BB should realise it could be the best thing for their career or the worst. Shilpa seems to think everyone should love her and can't handle the fact she obviously isn't liked that much.
I agree Jade etc are being pretty horrible but every girl in the land bitches about every other girl, if 3 of 4 friends get together they will talk about the absent 4th. Its life get over it.

That's a fair point, and of course you are right. However, based upon what I have seen/heard her say, I don't think she is being racist.
And she is a pig whatever race she is.......

'Racism' is more defined by that Channe; 4 programme 'Undercover Mosque' the other night. Us whiteys are all racistly and disparagingly reffered to as kufr's or kaffirs, and it was openly recommended they blow us up, well in fact, any 'dirty' non-muslim... Buy the DVD!

Poor old terrorists you have to give them their human rights though, which usually means all the benefits under the sun and a council house.

It linked to a bodybuilders forum and this little spat, ooh, get them muscle men
"The point being his comment was RETARDED.
Also, you're fat. You're ugly. You have several chins, and you talk like you own this place. Don't call anyone "fcukwit" until you can hit girls who weigh less than you."

I once knew a girl, very much like Jade in fact, who got fired from her Saturday job in the wines and spirits section of Tescos. She was approached by a nice Indian gentleman who asked her if she'd recommend him a good Port.
"Dover", she replied!

LOL at the Dover joke. 
As usual its the new labour thought police at it again. This thing would have been laughed off ten years back but has to be investigated to show Labour stance on 'RACISM'. Even Janice street Porter has been arrested for shouting at her neighbour. Not sure if you can do anything now incase your viewed as racist.
Bring back Alf Garnet

Pontificating
We have news 24 on constantly in the office and already today I have seen them interviewing a gentlemen live from Delhi and now it's being debated live in the commons.
only 250 original complaints, which is enough, as soon as the media got a hold of it that figure has now risen to 13000 +
FFS have we not got more pressing problems to deal with in this country.

A bit off topic, but a good point nonetheless.
According to the "Grand Mufti" (muslim cleric) of Saudi Arabia, women are inferior to men and should only be allowed to leave the house if their hubby allows it, and girls can be beaten if they are not wearing hijab (?) by 10 yrs old and can be married at the same age. Oh, and Christians and Atheists do not deserve to be be treated with any respect !
Probably not the views of your typical British muslim, but these comments were from one of the top chaps !!

I dislike passing judgement on other people's religious beliefs, but his views are repulsive and I can't believe that a religion of any value would advoate such practices!

"The term racism is sometimes used to refer to preference for one's own ethnic group, fear of foreigners, views against interracial relationships, and/or generalizations about a specific group of people"
Taking the above definition I would say Jermaine has made most of the racist comments in the house. The one about his wife being black "of course" and in the begining he said he wasn`t comfortable until Shilpa entered the house because, until then he was the only person "of colour". Also the "white trash" comment. So what are the 13,000 complaints about exactly?...
