The Brits always lumped all brownskins from South Asia under the ubiquituous tag 'Asian' despite the ever-widening differences in every social and economic indicator between those of Indian orgin and those hailing from Pukeistan and Bong-ladesh.

What happened had to happen sometime. Not long ago, Black Christians from the Caribbean recently came down against Pakis on the streets protesting a rape. Expect the BBC to mourn the passing of intra-minority 'solidarity' et al. Nobody else, I suspect, would be surprised at this turn of events.

While I was visiting Cambridge University back in the 70s, I asked one of the fellows at Jesus College who was included, exactly, in the term "wog."

"Anyone south of the Channel," was his explanatory reply. So, take that, Frenchies!

British Sikhs have stepped up their attack on the UK's politically-correct policy of lumping Sikhs and Hindus with the omnibus tag 'Asian' instead of clearly identifying Muslims as the offenders when needed.

he attack on British political correctness comes nearly a fortnight after the high-profile sentencing in the Scottish city of Glasgow of three 'Asian' Muslim men who horrifically killed a young white man, Kriss Donald, in a racist attack that shocked Scotland and much of the world.

On Friday, UK Sikh leaders said the community believed that the attack on the Sikh teenager was "directly linked to (the) conviction in Scotland for the horrific killing of a young white man by four Muslims."

Yes, enough of calliing them "militants" or "freedom fighters" or "minorities" or "Asians" -- call the scum what they really are -- MUSLIMS. hindus and Sikhs are on our side, let's acknowledge that and NOT lump all brown people into the ASIAN camp.

Muslims want to live in a world part so should simply be described as such. Not as Asians. Chinese are the oldest and biggest Asian community in America so when I think Asian I think chop suey not chopped off heads

.....same as hispanics being called "whites" when reporting crime statistics...

Hair of Sikh cut in racist attack in UK



LONDON: In a case of racial assault, a group of white youths attacked a Sikh teenager and clipped his hair in a public park in the Scottish capital Edinburgh.

The 15-year-old, who has not been named, was attacked by four youths in Pilrig Park on Tuesday evening in what police have described as an unprovoked and sustained assault.

He was initially subjected to racist verbal abuse from the gang, police said, before being knocked to the ground. When the teenager's turban came off, the gang cut his hair - an act considered highly offensive to the Sikh community.

"At around 7.30pm on Tuesday evening, the 15-year-old victim entered Pilrig Park via Balfour Place, Edinburgh where he was initially subjected to verbal racial abuse from a group of four young white males who were standing near to Pilrig Primary School," a police spokesman said.

"The victim for no apparent reason was thereafter set upon by the group, who violently punched and kicked him to the ground. The young victim has clearly been terrorized by the actions of these males," the spokesman said.

"The persons responsible for this attack made off across Pilrig Park, exiting into Pilrig Street, where they then ran off in the direction of Leith Walk," the spokesman said.

Police said although the teenager did not need hospital treatment, he was left terrified by the attack. "This was an extremely distressing attack on a young member of our community, who has been left traumatised by this incident," the spokesman said.

The four suspects are thought to be around 16 years old.

"Black Christians from the Caribbean recently came down against Pakis on the streets protesting a rape."

Was it the Christians or the Pakis who were protesting a rape? I'm sorry. It's not clear in the sentence.

They left his head? Dern whiner. It could have been much worse.

Unfortunately, I doubt more 'education' about the differences between Muslims and Sikhs will help when we're dealing with the kind of people who would perpetrate this kind of thing (not that they should be attacking random Muslims either).

I think we're dealing with the same kind of intellects as those who attacked an Austrian tourist after England lost to Germany at football, or the mob graffitting the house of a paediatrician (they didn't realise that wasn't the same as paedophile..)

Unless the continent from which these people spring is called other than Asia, the label is accurate, tribal differences between individuals notwithstanding.

I have no patience for contrary opinion. Sorry.

Not really sorry, of course.
