Does anyone Moderate this Site?
Some of the Racist Comments are a Disgrace!
One of the things I'm proud of being an Irish Supporter in travelling the world is being treated with respect and showing respect towards other nations.
To refer to the French as Frogs and Onion Breath (to quote only a few) is pure Racism!
If we were referred to with similar names, how many topics on this Forum would be raised?
sl*g off as many nations as you want, but don't go down the Racist Route, please!

While the aim may not have been to racially abuse people, the term refers to race and is generally considered a racist term, and the context of its use was utterly bizarre.

Inbreds is not a racist term. I would suggest that half-caste which is certainly a racist term is a much more similar comparison.

Half-breed is a term, now considered derogatory, used to describe anyone who is of mixed race, though it usually refers to people that are half Native American and half European or white.[1] Half-breed is the English version of the French word "métis".

If I called any someone of mixed race in England a 'half breed' they'd probably wonder a) why I was in the 1970s and b) punch myface in. IIt's clearly a racist term.

i got in a scuffle once a fortnight for this when I first moved there. Being called a Paddy by some thick Cockney with Chelsea/wet spam / Millwall tattoos drove me nuts. I have to say when I mobed on to using vocabulary they struggled to understand was a far more satisfying experienc .
As for the term half breed, have generally only come across it regarding US politics or as an implication that someone in your family had been impregnated by an animal
