Did your bike get stolen last night? (found charge mixer)

firstly, it wasn't that some of those comments could 'appear' racist in any way, it was that they were plain racist. never acceptable to use the word pikey, even if you're not talking about gypsies. the word has strongly racist connotations and you could have easily just said 'thieving twat'. the comment about 'white people steal too' was also racist. what exactly did you mean by that? i didn't see anyone make any reference to it just being non white people who steal, so why did you feel the need to clarify? perhaps it is just the way your posts came across and perhaps you are a rwally nice person, but i took objection and felt it necessary to voice my objection. i also feel it was wrong to give the thief £60 but hey, you're intentions may well have been good.
anyway, peace and love and all that.
