Looks like you are the odd man out again, Aussie.

Not unusual for you when it comes to moral judgements.

Adelcrow was the most noxious poster on this site, its a wonder he wasnt banned earlier but telling in those that stick up for him. The left love an abuser but scream like girls if it gets directed back at them, as evidenced by the old screeched Aussie.

He's not permanently banned.

He received suspension for gratuitous racism, he will receive further suspensions for reoccurrence.
As will anybody else.

The choice is his.

As for the argument that suspension decisions should not be decided on based on the post but who bans them.... Well we can just leave that to be as ridiculous as it reads.

I'm sorry but anyone who can't see this post for what it is, needs to look a little harder.
Impossible to defend.

Continually bringing Arab ethnicity into any argument.
It's just gratuitous racism and wrong.

Really? I hate racism and have often scalded you for yours, but get real.
Is Adel having a gov at Joe? Yea
Is he taking the piss? Yea
Is he even going to the extent that half the loony right do every day to take the piss? Yea.
Let's break it down, is Joes real name Hokeidonian? Yep fact.
Is he of Palistinian decent? Yep fact.
Is he of Arab heritage?yep fact.
Is he an ignorant git in charge of Australia's gov finances? Yep fact.
So what did he do wrong?
Ban him for swearing,fair enough, but the rest of your argument is bull.

Adelcrow was being a racist. End of story.

You should be berating him for exposing the shallowness of the left...or is it not racism, and just joking when 'the left' does it?

You should take the advice instead of deflecting for a change. It might do yo good considering you are nearly as abusive as Adel.

It's a shame the leftys feel that they are able to be abusive with impunity. I think it says more about this site, the previous moderators and who awarded them that position that an even handed mod gets blasted by the extreme leftys for reining in one of their own. It's like a shock to their system.

He's bored Skippy. He's run out of lefties to abuse on PA - so has come over here to cause trouble. He'll lose it by the end of the day and be gone again.

Yes, his grandparents came from Armenia. His father was an Armenian born in Bethlehem and his mother was Australian. He was born in  North Sydney and was educated at St Aloysius' College, Milson's Point and the University of Sydney.

I don't even know where the "Arab" snipe came from.

Hockey's paternal grandmother was Palestinian.  How that by itself justifies calling him an Arab is beyond me....

Maybe it's the same as calling someone aboriginal or Irish if their paternal grandparent was. Roll Eyes

It looks as though it all comes down to how you phrase it. If Adelcrow had said Joe is a descendant of the Arabic Palestinians who are fighting for their freedom from a cruel Jewish colonisation - then his comments would have been perfectly acceptable.

As long as you are politically correct - then it doesn't matter what you say. Adelcrow will no doubt be more careful next time.

This is on the rules page:

Racism

Discussion of racism and race related political issues is encouraged. However, politically correct language should be used when making criticism of racial policies or groups. Racism will be judged in a similar way to pornography – that is, is the criticism necessary to get a point of view across, or is it a gratuitous attack on a racial group? Note that race is treated differently from religion, which is a matter of choice and is open to the same criticism as political ideology.


From the limited investigationing I did, I agree with Andrei. You are welcome to repost the offending comments here for the purpose of discussion.
