Those Pesky Thais/Japanese/Chinese…

Under-fire private security firm G4S was at the centre of another embarrassing Olympics scandal today after an employee allegedly called a soldier a 'baby killer' as they worked at a Games venue.
The Asian civilian guard, who faces the sack, is said to have spat at the serviceman and made the abusive remark at the archery contest at Lord's Cricket Ground.
And what prompted this, I wonder?

Misplaced anger at the Hiroshima or Nagasaki Bombs? A festering resentment over failure to intervene in the Boxer Rebellion or the Fall of Saigon?
The remark is believed to have been a reference to the soldier's service in Afghanistan.
Ah. Say no more. I suppose I should have known...

And as QM points out:
"There's that ubiquitous 'Asian' tag again, which is a gross insult to the vast majority of Asians who are polite, civilised and generally not Islamic in nature. You can pretty much accept that if the roles had been reversed the police would most likely have been called and an arrest made for a hate crime."
Well, indeed!

    And why, pray tell, did the squaddie not instantly render the ragheaded fuck? Even disciplined soldiers (and ours are very disciplined) are not expected to submit to gross physical insult, especially not when wearing the Queens uniform (because it is a direct affront to Her)

  2. Surprised said "asian" wasn't blubbing an apology whilst picking his teeth off the floor.

  3. I'm getting heartily sick of the use of the word 'asian' when what is really meant is 'Islamic savage'.

    If I was a Hindu, Sikh or anyone else Asian I'd be up in arms.

    If a certain section of Britain's Islamic community cannot keep their filthy antidemocratic ideology to themselves even whilst working alongside troops at the olympics then why do we tolerate them? Should they not be on the next boat out?

  4. " Even disciplined soldiers (and ours are very disciplined) are not expected to submit to gross physical insult..."

    I wondered that too...

    "If I was a Hindu, Sikh or anyone else Asian I'd be up in arms."

    Well, quite! It's pointless now too, since EVERYONE immediately knows what they really mean.
