Prince Harry Racist Video
Prince Harry issued a public apology on Saturday after a UK tabloid published video footage of the British royal using offensive and racist language toward Arabs.
The video, released this weekend, shows the 24-year-old, who is third in line from the throne, using phrases like “our little paki friend” and “raghead” to refer to military colleagues in 2006. He issued an apology, adding that he didn’t use the terms in malice.
“Prince Harry fully understands how offensive this term can be, and is extremely sorry for any offense his words might cause,” spokesman Patrick Harrison said in a statement.
“However, on this occasion three years ago, Prince Harry used the term without any malice and as a nickname about a highly popular member of his platoon. There is no question that Prince Harry was in any way seeking to insult his friend.”

What a sad sad place we live in!!! A young soldier (three years ago in a home video) used a nick name, as a term of endearment and now the bigots and closet racists are up in arms. Had he said “Taff” or “Jock” would it illicit the same response, I think Not. I sometimes feel that people (including the media) play on these none events blowing them out of all proportion in order to perpetuate racial tension by making ordinary people angry at the stupid remarks made by the PC brigade. The perceived loss of personal freedoms and perceived bias towards Black and Asian communities in this country is a real cause for concern not a bit of banter by a young soldier.
The people calling for HRH Prince Harry to be vilified or even subject to legal intervention should tread very carefully as their words and actions are driving a wedge between the diverse communities of this country.
Push hard enough and you will swell the ranks of parties such as the BNP!
Tolerance works both ways.

It doesn’t matter if it was a bit of ‘banter’, it was still a racist remark. There is not a bias towards Black and Asian communities in the UK – everyone is treated equally – until you find out a possible monarch (definitely Royal Family) uses racist remarks – it is worrying.
“Taxpayers fund his lavish lifestyle and he doesnt even have the common decency to behave in a civilised fashion.”
“Harry is an intellectually challenged product of a public school and has an influential family background.”
“The trouble with Harry is that he has the genes that got the Duke of Windsor exiled to the Caribbean during WWII to hide his pro-Hitler ideas.”
These are very good quotes from the Guardian Unlimited website and I think they are brilliant at explaining why Harry is such a F*@king c*Nt.
