Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Takes Aim at Racist Twitter Attackers

[happyman]

I don't get why racism towards whites isn't taken as seriously as racist remarks towards others. Racism is terrible all around the spectrum.

Racial?

GTFOH.

Fury is a Caucasoid 100%. He's being targeted by Caucasoids.

Yes, using social networking sites to slander people anonymously because they were born a certain color/ethnicity or any other trivial difference is disgusting. Specially when mainstream media says it isn't right to defend yourself. They want you to just take the hatred they spew at you. It's a cowardice move that I find repulsive. Too many people have suffered at the hands of this vile ignorance for it to just be swept under the rug and pretend like it never happened.

I commend Tyson Fury it takes courage to say you're not taking it anymore.

Ok I get it, you're trolling

Romani gypsies are an ethnic group but Irish people living in caravans in Manchester, not so much.

Since when have travellers been a race?

I actually looked this up the other day.

Apparently Irish Travelers were given distinct ethnic classification on the grounds that their genes show a seperation from the mass Irish population around a thousand years ago. It also said that lots of families would have become Travelers much later (many during the great famine), but generally they are considered a distinct group within Ireland and other countries like the UK.

Understandable if it came from anyone else, but Fury is always on Twitter..being ****phobic, slagging off people from certain areas.
He should stop it himself if he doesn't want it back in return.

It was only a couple of weeks ago when Fury twitted "Heil Hitler" on his twitter, now he's complaining about racism? GTFOH

Except, Irish +/or gypsy isn't really a race is it? He isn't a Romany gypsy by the way.

Thanks for enlightening me on that fact. Racism has become too complex for me to comprehend nowadays. Here I was thinking racism was all about the colour of a persons skin but I guess I need to do more reading.
