Chinese couple walk past man singing Kung Fu Fighting, man arrested - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Natahster;29527588]Where is this place? [sp]England?[/sp] Great Britain[/QUOTE] It's a little island an island of the South coast sort of like Alcatraz except that people just don't want to go or leave there.

The fact that we differentiate between races is the reason racism exsists, if we called everyone a person rather than define them by their physical traits, the world would be a much better place.

You just have to get used to it. Racism will never go away.

Okinawa anyone?

[QUOTE=Smartguy5000;29529058]Isn't japan more widely known for martial arts than china anyway? Okinawa anyone?[/QUOTE] They are, but that doesn't mean all martial arts are Japanese.

Okay, as funny as this is, if the guy was doing it with intention to mock, he should be given a slap on the wrist at least.

[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;29526084]It's against the law to sing the 70's hit song 'Kung Fu Fighting' in the vicinity of an Asian person?[/QUOTE] I'm Asian. I like that song.

God damn it China, why can't you be normal. At least you're more normal than Japan. It sucks to be Chinese sometimes.

[QUOTE=petieng;29526194]That's crazy. Apparently the police who arrested him thought it was crazy but still had to take the allegation seriously. If there's nothing more to the story than what's reported nothing will come of this. There might even be backlash on the ones that accused him of racial abuse.[/QUOTE] They can be fined for wasting law enforcer's time, better than nothing I guess

It's not worth losing your job because some people got butthurt about a song.

[QUOTE=archangel125;29529691]Okay, as funny as this is, if the guy was doing it with intention to mock, he should be given a slap on the wrist at least.[/QUOTE] Not by any public official with power such as a cop or judge. People have a right to mock and show disapproval.

nothing will happen to him but i absolutely hate it when people start bagging on about political correctness

[QUOTE=Hiccuper;29526106]That'd be like me getting arrested for breaking out into "Baby" every time that kid that looks like justin bieber in my school walks by.[/QUOTE] Or me rapping near a black guy. Except that would be impossible because I can't rap.

people get mad for the sake or getting mad that or people are bitches who are easily offended

Wow. Political correctness gone too far... He was probably pissed. Its allowed

I'm Asian, can't wait to watch Kung Fu Panda 2 xD

[QUOTE=garychencool;29534665]I'm Asian, can't wait to watch Kung Fu Panda 2 xD[/QUOTE] Remove that XD now

[QUOTE=privatesmily;29533757]people get mad for the sake or getting mad that or people are bitches who are easily offended[/QUOTE] People will get offended at what they're allowed to, regardless of it's offensive or not.

The Chinese couple should be forced to watch every Bruce Lee movie ever made, then reflect on how he became a badass and they're whiny pissants.

[QUOTE=archangel125;29532322]Disapproval for someone's race? Playing devil's advocate here.[/QUOTE] People have full right to disapprove of any group of people for any reason, including race. This does not mean that people have the right to show their disapproval through any means possible, especially in scenarios where doing so infringes on the right's of others. WBB is fully entitled to do what they do, and we are fully entitled to show our disapproval of them.

Communi$m.

[QUOTE=captainHOE;29526510]Karate isn't Kung Fu. Kung Fu is Chinese, Karate is Japanese, and Kung Fu is much older.[/QUOTE] Doesn't really matter, long as it makes someone get their ass kicked.

In this case it looks like the Chinese couple were the racist ones, if that makes sense.
