Paul Gascoigne investigated for joke

[Gandalf]

It is weird how that can potentially get you a criminal record. It was unlikely to have been malicious on Gascoigne's part. Should I call the police everytime someone points out that I don't have a flat nose or have white skin? Why is race the big thing? People need to lighten up. 'That's racist!'. My word.....

Pathetic that a joke can be seen to be the same as real racial crimes.
