@computernoises: that's why I said it isn't a race. There many countries in Europe. English is a race, Turkish is a race, Irish is a race, and etc. Unlike a skin tone like Caucasian they have history, traditions, unique celebration and so much more. A pale skin tone is just something these many European cultures share it has nothing to do race.I guess you can call it Caucasian skin tone. It is not race because you are more than just the skin on your body, you descended from a specific country. There's no country called Whiteland where the whitelandians do white things. There are for example Scottish folk with traditional garb like the kilt and their Highland games, and though they speak English nowadays they have their own phrases. That is what race is to me and not some organ covering your body that sheds it's dead cells daily.
@darthbluntsaber: I'm not blaming all white people because white isnt a race. If I have to blame someone I'll blame
English settlers. And I know what you mean but I will say it's the second largest societal problem after the top one percent. Racism is deep in our justice is system and somewhat the employment system. It's reason the fair skinned people are living under blanket term....well a good portion of you I know the Irish Americans haven't cast their culture aside to simply be called american. I would stop playing the race card but it hasn't stopped being a problem. For example I'm African American but i have no idea which African country I come from thanks to the idiot settlers/invaders of old.
@NeonicTrash: I would agree depending on the country, my country the US is racist and there are employers who hire in favor of white applicants even if the other applicants are more qualified
If he'll get anything out of this he'll learn to not do this again. Our white kids here in the US don't usually get this lesson because our system is prone to gentle slaps on the wrist or meager sentences even if it's a major crime. So they end up repeating their mistakes. It's like Jr goes out joy riding.....oops he gets caught and gets a warning. Then he does it again bit this time there's an accident. Had he had to atleast spend a night (maybe two) in a jail cell to give him a scare and a chance to think maybe he wouldn't have done it and wouldn't be sitting in a hospital. If the UK is anything like the US this will not put a dent in his chances of high paying job.
@Pyrosa: even if he were bullied and had as per gers it's not an excuse to commit a crime. We need judges like Topolski here in the US, our judges are soft on pale toned people even when they commit a major crime.
