What is the debate then?
You just annoyed you can't go round shouting Paki any more without someone getting on your case?
Not at all
Why would I ?
I suggest you read the op again
The debate here is whether that comment was racist or banter
Same as when I get called baldy in this instance it called banter
The two just aren't comparable - if you honestly think that calling someone a 'Paki' so and so is the same as 'bald' so and so then you need to move into the modern world, as the guy in OP link needs to.
Just to make this clear, before I get branded as a racist Thatcherite, I would never call anyone a Paki.
I have Pakistani friends who call each other Paki and they laugh at us and our political correctness.
I wouldn't expect you to use the word Andy, and I believe you treat everyone equally regardless of their colour or race.
I have Pakistani and Indian friends who detest being called Paki - as it's often used as a derogatory term, prefaced or suffixed with bastard or not.
It's the same as black friends referring to each other as 'nigga', it's very different to calling someone a nigger.
When people are discriminated against because of the colour of their skin, or there is a long history of discrimination because of their race or colour, then using terms related to this discrimination is obviously far more than political correctness.
I don't know about too much discrimination against bald people as a group which has seen them being marginalised, discriminated against, physically abused or murdered. Which is why it isn't the same thing.
Gotta say that annoys me, they should be setting an example.

Bald and paki just can't be considered the same.
I get what you're trying to say, but you're wrong.
Oh, and shut up you Greek twat psaras.
Don't ya just love sibling rivalry
Siblings, hmm...
You two in your primes.
See how hes looking at my arse. Somethings never change.
When you wearing that vest again? For the Monte Carlo? Fetching...
I'll wear it if you can send it back to me mate. Can you clean it first though.

Would you agree to do a little turn on the catwalk?

It would be nice if Paki could be used here like the Aussies use it, but it can't for a while yet unfortunately.
This was one of my nicknames at school, I think it was a term of endearment though
