Gorilla and monkey chants in general are widely used as cheap forms of racism, particularly in sport where we've seen if for years.

The imagery of a donkey or ass would be a lot more appropriate if McKenzie was directing it at a perceived lack of intellect in Barkley.

McKenzie knew what he was doing and is being rightly called out on it.

Gorillas are thought of as a highly intelligent animal.

Strange choice of animal to try and insinuate a lack of intelligence, unless you know the author that is
 
Oh that would be a hard fight for me to pick a side.

Is it possible they all can lose?

I do laugh at this weird notion that there are not drug dealers in pretty much every area where people are throughout the world and it just happens here.
Yes i know there is but were not talking about another city are we.
 
Cant believe it hasnt already been done

I would like to think because its merely a token gesture.

I get the hatred for the sun I really do, I hated it before the whole Hillsborough stuff because its a rubbish newspaper read by morons, however the majority of those responsible for that bile work elsewhere now and of course the bigger figures from back then are knee deep in the likes of Sky, Talksport etc etc. It just feels to me that the hatred is being taken out on an inanimate object, a few sheets of paper with rubbish news on, rather than the people actually responsible.

We should ban it just for the hell of it but then it looks worse if that makes any sense?
 

Nobody but the bloke himself will know if he purposely did it or not. Everyone is going on about checking wikipedia for his background or that people should know he is mixed race, it was a personal tweet wasn't it? I very much doubt any thought or attention was put into it.

No. It was a full article for the rag.

I think we are getting our wires crossed here, I agree with you.

What I mean is it annoys/baffles me how people put down Liverpool for having drug dealers whilst ignoring the fact that every other major population area has them, like we are the only ones.
