Kamahl?

hello rainman it's a racist joke that is ment to be funny well some find
it funny. Kamahl is an is a singer in australia that happens to have
dark skin, yes we also have racists in this country that see no wrong
in making jokes like this still in 2009


but is would be okay to ask what is white, male and sings in the garden
with a reply of John Denver (or some idol idiot)?

Get over it folks. Trying not to be rascist by stridently not describing
non-white peoples skin is rascism. You are just showing that you still
categorise people by skin colour, rather than accept it as a natural
descriptor.

Anyway, technically his skin colour isn't black, but some where in that
brown to olive range.

To get back to the subject, I'm glad his bird is a Koel. Far better than
frigging black birds(bright yellow beak) who scratch up all your
seedlings. Are tennis ball guns illegal or not sold? My throwing arm is
no good anymore.

why not just a male that sings in the garden why the colour overtones and
don't be so naive you know exactly what was meant, but lets pretend its
nothing and then all act amazed when there are race riots smh or the nazis
are back with their racist propaganda and all sit round shaking our heads
saying how the hell did this happen.


Well said Abigail.
