Theero you got trololol'd too badly... I would like to point out that racism is not a crime by itself,
BUT all discrimination based on one's gender, origin, age, languague, religion, beliefs, health, opinion, disablement or other personal quality is considered as a crime. You can be racist all by yourself if you want, but you cannot do anything about it, because you are not allowed to act and discriminate anyone. It's still stupid to be a racist, but it is not illegal as long as you don't discriminate, bully, batter or threaten anyone based on those beliefs. We cannot make stupidness (or thoughts) illegal can't we?
Maybe that bullying part is the most relevant when it comes to this community. However I see it as non issue on this talk about Turks. As I described in my earlier post, it is not racist it just happens to be that some clans are mainly Turkish players and those comments on chat are going to be there no matter what the clan is. Some people just want to be "funny" when they say some clan is the blame when they lost the multiplier. Then again the discussion could go on and on to the words we cannot say or should not be allowed to say. The "N"-word for example. I have seen that it is ok to say if you are African American yourself, but no go if you are white. How can we know the skin colour of a player behind the screen and if it is ok? We can't, and therefore it is not a good word to use in the internet at all... But I would suggest just to deal with it. It is nothing personal and it only shows that the person using the "N"- word is immature as hell, so the comments he/she makes are irrelevant after that moment, m'kay? Also just ignore every asshole who tries to make you feel bad because of your qualities, whether it is nationality, skin colour, religion or whatever. They know nothing about you and they are idiots using stereotypes to mock you. Their arguments are invalid and every grown up person knows that.
Apparently there is bad words existing even if I think that a word can never be bad all by itself. I think it all depends on the context, but there is also people who think the other way, so I really don't use some words even if my context is not harmful at all. I just don't want to confuse people in some subjects because I am not a racist and I don't want people to think I am. I talk shit and can be rude sometimes but there is one thing I don't want to mess with and it is racism.
Also you should read more about populism and "true Finns"- party before you accuse them of racism. Political goals and plans are most of the time completely something else than the media wants you to believe. Their goal is not to "keep Finland white", but rather keep Finland helping the people who genuinely need a safer place to live and the ones who want to get a job here and not only live with our tax money for the rest of their days. I don't see any racist thoughts on those goals. They just don't like RL leeching ;)

Catch'd! Chill.
I know some of you don't share my opinion and I know that all I wrote here most likely doesn't solve anything. I respect your opinions, but this is mine and I think I said everything I want at this point. I hope this thread would just...
