A Welshman has been found guilty of the racially aggravated assault of man who "over-celebrated" an England rugby victory in a pub.

If I was hit by a Welshman over the same sort of behaviour I would not describe it as racism. Nationalism maybe but not racism. :roll:

I don't think he's racist. I think he's a thug and a prick.

Yeah, but "racist Attack" makes for a better headline than "some prick hit somebody". ;)

I'd expect this kind of crap from the Daily Fail. :roll:

When interviewed, Lloyd admitted he may called Mr Whitehouse an English p---- but denied assaulting him.

So at the very least he was racially harassing him.

Oh ffs.

The guy is English, so he basically called him a p----. That is not racism.

Calling a Welshman a Welsh sheep shagger, or a Scotsman a Scottish skinflint is racial stereotyping. How is naming someone's nationality, prior to issuing the insult, racist?

Bulls!t. Namby-pamby nanny state, bullsh!t.
