Anti English racist attack in Aberdeen

Its a bit like the Paddies in the 'North' going on about 'Black Bastards' (got a lot of this from irps in Belfast) Bit of a joke.
british white people i was with thought it was racist, I did conject them.
 
One wonders if he would have been brave enough to take the same violence to an English man.

If what I've been told is to be believed the person may have hit anyone who looked at him funny, male or female.

Aberdeen has a few violent areas, when you mix galivanting folk with money with homeless and possible junkies(not the homeless but there are a few junkies in that area) there is often going to be aggression :(

I'm not 100% convinced she only got hit for being english, or if she did that fact may have played a small part in the violence. There are violent arseholes everywhere.
 
Is racist quite the right word here? I'm Welsh, but have only a very slight Welsh accent and may sound to some like a southern Englishman. Years ago, I was in Hull visiting a mate there, and as we were walking down a particular street, my mate told me to keep my gob shut for a bit as a southerner was liable to be punched. Was this anti-southerner racism?

I don't think so. I think the two situations are similar and that it is nasty, narrow-minded bigotry. But I don't think it is helpful to call it racist.
