I am constantly accused of being racist when I describe certain criminals of being 'savages', after they have committed certain vicious crimes. .

Well it would appear that the bit of gutter slime who has been charged with the shooting of the two British tourists in Florida, has himself had the words 'Young Savage' tattooed' on his chest.

So in the future will I be in order to use this word, now that it seems it is being used by the savages themselves?

/// Tyson, a school dropout who has the street nickname of “Young Savage” and a tattoo bearing the same words, had been arrested earlier this month after allegedly shooting at a car, but was released from a juvenile detention centre after witnesses failed to show up to give evidence at a court hearing. ///

I think I'll leave it here, I never suggested a direct correlation between 'the old blues' and gangsta rap. The evolution can be traced if you read your history, the same way that Lemurs became Primates.
The Blues influenced a lot of music but sorry i can't see it with gansta .

Pistol packin papa from 1933. Original american blues /gangster music.There were many such songs sung during the depression when bank robbers were seen as modern day cowboys stealing money from the banks who had robbed the common people , in their eyes , much like jesse james was seen as a hero in the wild west.I believe this song may be the first record to call a gun a silver mounted gat.
Question Author
I posted a link regarding the two innocent British tourists who were brutality murdered while on their holidays in Florida USA. and a 'young savage' who has been charged with their murder.

Well aright the word Savage obviously upset some so much so that they turned the fact of a killing into a load of 'mumbo-jumbo' about black music..

It is absolutely amazing that no one condemned this brutal murder and only seemed bothered about the word savage and black music.

It has made me wonder if this is a site for adult discussion on topic news items.

But wait a minute perhaps I am being too critical, I forgot the youngsters are out of school, so perhaps that is the reason for this infantile behaviour?
Why don't you grow up yourself 'old git and drop this obsession you seem to have with colour and race.
AOG - you posted this in an attempt to defend your use of the word savage when describing black males.

You point out that this individual has the word 'young savage' tattooed on himself and somehow equate this to: "it seems it is being used by the savages themselves?" note the plural.

It was questioned why since this one person calls himself a savage, why you equate this to lots of other people calling themselves savages, but (as usual with a question that you can't answer) you choose not to answer it.

You accuse Gromit of being childish and imply that you don't just use the word savage on black youth. It is proved that you do, but yet again you ignore this as it is not convenient to your argument.

You state: "I do not use the word savage to annoy anyone" but quite obviously you do - it has been pointed out to you how insensitive this word can be perceived but you choose to ignore it and continue to use it exclusively on non-white crimes.

You then go on to say: ", but if I do (annoy anyone that is) then it is their problem and not mine". Fine, I will no longer call you AOG, but Mr Bedwetter (as I presume that you are old and wee yourself). I don't mean to insult or annoy you, but it is a statistical fact that older people can be more incontinent than younger people. Of course, if it does annoy you, then it is your problem, not mine.

Finally you accuse others of being childish, but seem to ignore what other people ask you, choosing to say what you want, when you want and if you hear things that you don't like, you either ignore them or go off and cry. Reminds me of a 5 year old that I know......
actually, I apologise - I will not call you Mr Bedwetter as I have no way of knowing if this is true or not - so instead I will call you Mr Former Nazi Memorabilia Collector

Sarasota isn't even a rough town. Sorry about your countrymen. Savage has more indigenous connotations as far as I know.
That link is actually very interesting oneeyedvic, Ta
