Recommended Posts

don't know if this has been posted, but this really is a very lame newstory, ok, it was a silly thing to do, but the train is stationary when she begins crossing, it wasn't exactly close... the seconds away she talks about is 10 seconds.

the kid in the later video - now THAT is a near miss!

Pram near miss

lol Near miss my ass. The reporter says "other people look on in horror"!! Yeah right.

Now the youth's ones were close! But most kids head down the train tracks for a game of chicken at some point. We used to take our guns down the tracks and stay all day (weren't passenger trains though) shooting cans and lumps of coal. Then maybe a game of chicken, but it weren't as hardcore as that kid on the video cos the drivers used to slow down most of the time and sometimes chase us. And I used to shout 'Chase me, chase me' in the gay voice. Great days Eddie, great days

It's getting to the point where I can't watch the news or read the papers any more. Everything is always blown completely out of proportion, bloody tabloids and 24 hour news channels trying to fill every column or second they can.

Arrrgh.

I presume they were outraged about the film white chicks also.

US website Jezebel branded the magazine's editor Carine Roitfeld and photographer Steven Klein as "culturally insensitive" for publishing the pictures.

lol

I like how no black people give a shit about trivial things like this, but these fucking liberals think it's *culturally insensitive*. That's an insult to my intelligence.

If they had stuffed some women in an afro, painted on big red lips and had her do a song and dance routine, I could understand complaints. They just applied some paint to a model for crying out loud.

Next time they paint someone blue, i'll write in and say it's insensitive to people with poor circulation.

Agreed a touch sensitive, but it makes you wonder, no-one complians of black\white people acting there opposite colours in movies and stuff, and what about the gays, why now!!

Indeed... although if someone wants to be incensed, they can always find something.

Like I mentioned before, the film white chicks has two black men pretending to be white women. I was incensed by that.... not because of the "whiting up", but because the Waylen brothers continue to be allowed to make films. They are a crime against acting!!!

Same here with Gandhi, not because they made a respectable white bloke to play that cretinious bold ****, but the fact that the acting was superb and made Gandhi look like quite a nice guy, although both me and Ben Kingsley would agree that they should have added scenes of Gandhi testing his sexual will power and fail miserably on his niece and his other young disciples, now that would be an oscar film worth watching!!!

The website said: "What Klein and Roitfeld should know is that painting white people black for the entertainment of other white people is offensive in ways that stand entirely apart from cultural context.

so, are they suggesting that only white people read vogue, that is way more 'culturally insensitive'.... in fact, it is cultutrally ignorant.
