You must be drunk, I didn't insult the haka at all, in fact I asked if it should be protected from cultural appropriation by the New Zealand national team.
You then started being racist and didn't like it when you were called a bad name.
When did I say my comment was anything to do with you?
Honest question - when was I being racist?
Where does the tag "gammon" come from. Genuine question
Dickens coined it in Nicholas Nickleby
Here's the quote:
The time had been, when this burst of enthusiasm would have been cheered to the very echo; but now, the deputation received it with chilling coldness. The general impression seemed to be, that as an explanation of Mr. Gregsbury’s political conduct, it did not enter quite enough into detail; and one gentleman in the rear did not scruple to remark aloud, that, for his purpose, it savoured rather too much of a 'gammon' tendency.
The meaning of that term—gammon,' said Mr. Gregsbury, 'is unknown to me. If it means that I grow a little too fervid, or perhaps even hyperbolical, in extolling my native land, I admit the full justice of the remark. I am proud of this free and happy country. My form dilates, my eye glistens, my breast heaves, my heart swells, my bosom burns, when I call to mind her greatness and her glory.
Language evolves, just because a word was once not offensive does not mean it stays that way forever.
Okay, well, why does it offend you?
I think any term/insult referring to skin colour in wrong, doesn't matter if the victim is black/white/asian etc, same standards should apply to everyone.
So why does it offend you?
Do you have a problem with reading? Would it be ok if I called a black man a malteser, or an asian a banana?
Are you black, a malteser, an asian or a banana?
No, I'm white being called gammon, what's the difference between any of the examples? Nothing, you were being racist.
There's a pretty big difference between a white man calling a black man a maltesar and a white man calling another white man gammon. If you can't see that then... whelp.
But I have no idea of your skin colour, do i? Also, if you recall many deemed it racist when Ashley Cole (I think) called another black-man a choc ice, so whilst it might not be as bad, it's certainly not OK!
As some, like me, who lives as a minority, I would expect a little more sensitivity, sadly you seem lacking in that area, assuming the gender of an entire forum and racially sensitive language.
Funny your racial sensitivity doesn't extend to people who aren't white. Oh well.
But it does, which is why I've pulled people up for unacceptable comments.

No no no, the one that says taking the piss out of someone's skin colour is offensive and racist, even if it's the same as your own.
Stop the world I want to get off...Come into my workplace see what people call each other, some of you pansies wouldn't last 5 minutes....Ooops sorry didn't mean to offend any flowers reading in.

Let's not also get into the sociological discussion on whether you even can be racist to a white person.

They were actually referring to the cha cha slide as a traditional american dance, so you've either deliberately trolling or proper thick.
A version of the Haka was first performed before a New Zealand "Native" game on 3 October 1888, fifty years after Charles Dickens used the word "gammon" in Nicholas Nickleby.
And the "All Blacks" performed it on their first tour of Great Britain in 1905 which started three months before Charlton Athletic's first-ever game.
