Prince Harry of Racism Apologizes

Filed under: Icky Icky Poo > Royals Royce

harrrrysux.jpg

Prince Harry sent one of his minions out on Saturday to 'apologize' for the derogatory stuff (i.e. "Paki" and "raghead") he was captured saying in a video released by the News of the World at the beginning of the weekend.

The royal mouthpiece said, "Prince Harry fully understands how offensive this term (Paki) can be, and is extremely sorry for any offence his words might cause. 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."

And, in re. the use of the word 'raghead', the flack said Ginger had used "raghead" to mean a Taliban or Iraqi insurgent.

Uh huh.

Must be nice to have 'people' to hide behind, Harry!

    Oh I love me some Prince Harry…I can't lie. I know he's got a potty mouth but…he's a ginger. I love me some ginger…=)

    What is wrong with that boy?! Everywhere I look now that boy is fucking up! In public! Don't they have to go through some kind of charm school? Why is his brother not lookin' out? Oh the questions…



  3. 103

    What about that time he dressed up as a nazi?
    He should really spend more time with William.

    At least he did not call them DUNE COONES.

    Prince Harry was so yummy in that footage, too. A cammie wearing ginger love and just swinging that machete around….gggrrrrr…

    Erm…This story has been blown way out of proportion. There is nothing offensive, let alone racist about calling someone who’s from the country Pakistan a Paki. Brits living in Australia don’t call for the racist card when they’re being called a Pom. Talk about overreacting! The guy in question never found it offensive, he never reported Harry to any authorities over this but as per usual, the media loves hyping shit like this up. My God, if people find this racist then we’re all racists; I call my American friends Yanks, they call me Dutchie, we call our Australian friends Aussies and our friends from New Zealand are kiwi’s..People need to lighten up. And to top that, the video was filmed amongst a bunch of army lads, guys who are all friends, who went through army training together and it is more then obvious in the video that they are just mucking about, like any bunch of army guys would!

    Pulease, he's not racist, he is a guy who is in the military and like most people in the military, they use words like that, vietnam the soldiers called people gooks an stuff, didn't mean anything by it, and who does not make fun of there job. People are too fucking sensitive, if you are not secure in your ethnic background that is on you. i'm hispanic and don't give a rats ass if someone calls me a wetback, cuz I know better. If he wasn't a prince noone would care. If you really look at him and his charity work you would see the good stuff he does, if you were really racist you would not dare touch a black kids hand or a different races hand at all. Just keep on instigating Perez, you fag, yeah I said it FAG! Now let's see if i'm all over the newspaper saying Fag.

    Who cares….they are ragheads….fuck them. Why are we so concerned about who it offends…..they could care less about eachother.

    Re: The Mancunian Candidate
    We Americans don't view pakis as "asians". Asians, to us, are Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, etc. and we don't have a problem with them. We DO have a problem with the pakis as they are muslims and have declared "death to the infidels".



  11. 111

    The real reason he's so stupid is because he said it on camera. Dumbass should've known there was a chance it could have gotten out. And a very strong chance, no, guarantee that people would get angry.



  12. 112

    These comments are beneath a royal, but no big deal otherwise. Stop being a bunch of thin-skinned PC fags. These are slang terms, not insults.

    I believe the statement. Harry is a decent bloke. Cut him some slack…his step-mum is a horse!



  14. 114

    OMG!! I used to love the Prince Harry (no more than Prince William, of course!!!) but this is really racist, disgusting and patetic! And is the second time he make some racist "mistake!": first, when he dressed like a nazi and now this…and then pretend to be nice with black people in Africa (surely hates black people too) He haven't excuses! he is not a little kid to make "jokes" and "mistakes"!!
    I'm really disappointed of him!
    Very different to his mother! :(



  15. 115

    it makes me laugh how oblivious most of the americans on this site are of the connotations that p*ki has, im sure you'd say we were all being stupid by being angry if one of your public figures filmed themseves calling a black man a n*gger



  16. 116

    Re: -V- – i think you”l find chinese, japanese etc. are east asian, you use that word to describe them becuase in your country they outnumber the south asian, however indians, pakistanis etc. from south asia outnumber east asians in the uk so when we say asian we mean south asian, if he was calling an east asian a p*ki it probably wouldnt be offensive as it does not make sense



  17. 117

    he a dumb ass. only reason he apologized is cuz his "people" told him. LIke her really cared i mean come on. by the way he is not sexy at all.



  18. 118

    none of the assholes that are squealing about this have ever had on a uniform



  19. 119

    GET OVER IT. GOD DAMN COLLOQUIAL PURISTS. HE'S A HOT WINGY POM!

    Aww finally I had to go back preety far to find this one, but I wanted to put in my two cents on this one.

    I didnt find his comments racisit at all. It was clearly dirty grunt talk. He is talking like any boy sent to war, the whole paki thing sounded to me like it was a pet name.

    Its a name not based on race but a joke about race.
