I tell this story without wanting to offend....
A mate of mine is a trade teacher at Granville TAFE. He loves the story about 2 close mates in his class once and when my mate asked the class to get out insulated pliers etc one of the boys asked his mate a bit loud what the teacher wanted them to get. His mate replies with an ooooffff...get these out you dumb Arab.
Both were Lebanese, good mates and none of them was offended.....it was normal. But one kid in the class reported that my mate was racist because he didnn't say Oi cant say that it's offensive.
The Head Teacher chucked the complaint because he had students like that and was sensible.
Mods please delete if offensive
