Sigh... some Pakistanis got jealous of the fact that black people had the word 'nigger'. So they decided they could use 'paki' like black people use the word 'nigger'.
I still find it offensive, and I'm definitely not the only one, given that the only time I hear it is when someone is trying to insult me.
I can't say for sure since I haven't met all Pakistanis who are OK with the word paki, but all the ones I know who are OK with it are the ones who haven't suffered at the hands of that word. I on the other had still see it rear it's ugly head on a regular basis.
Sorry I realise I've been talking about this for some time now, I'll shut up.
on the contrary, preach brother preach..!

How can other people learn if one decided to end a discussion? I find it useful to see other people's perceptive.

Is it a coincidence that the 'Jade Goody Memorial Issue' was number 666?

I'm more sad about Jade Goody than I was with Diana (I simply didn't understand that at all TBH), I think she endeared herself to people because she seemed to always be herself and never put on a facade, even if she made a right prat of herself. If you ignore the whole racism case - which in my opinion was overblown media fluff anyway - you can tell she was a pretty harmless, well-meaning person... and yes it is pretty sad when someone like that dies without deserving it - especially when they have kids and still in their twenties.
Comparisons to Diana will probably be made as both of them had so much media coverage - people develop this strange sort of bond as if they know them in person.

Michael Parkinson was not a great fan of Jade Goody, and what she stood for.

Jade Goody = ignorant and puerile.
Very honest assessment IMO.
Really? So you don't read www.ynwa.co.uk??
Oh yeah, you're not a proper kopite ;-)
