It's evident now that you aren't racist you're just mentally challenged. Does the person that looks after you apologise for you a lot?
Well there was no chance of that in the first place considering im not white dumbass… For what having an opinion and a view thats different to yours. Shut up u fool.

But it's pretty obvious when someone says coloured they're just seriously unaware. It is offensive though, as it's a term directly relating to overt racism and segregation such as 'no coloureds allowed' etc.. Also, it implies a white supremacy, in suggesting that there's a distinction between white people and everyone else, the coloured people, and I don't just mean African either.
Only asked where you're from as I genuinely haven't heard the term coloured in I don't know how many years and I'm from Birmingham. Can't even imagine where you'd get away with saying that as casually as you do. I can only assume nobody's challenged you before?
I appreciate that, but that doesn't make the word racist, it was just used in a racist sentence… But yeah I can see how some people would take offence… To be honest mate its not exactly a word I use often or say a lot, it was just that i was referring to both balotelli's bird and that towie chick who is Asian, so just seemed more fitting you get me.
