      Quite right.

      And correct me if I'm wrong, but personally inflicting wanton physical violence to a helpless individual - wasn't that sort of thing beneath the One And Only Original Master?

        When all I'm doing is stating what I believe to be right. I've never thought of myself as right-wing, just realistic.
        I find that I am now scared of criticising any minority groups in case I'm labelled racist or right wing. I have a problem because a representative of Muslim women in my area have requested and been granted women only nights at my pool (previous thread). Now by criticising them, folk like SA immediately jump on the PC bandwagon hysterically accusing me or implying I'm anti-muslim or racist or something. It's nothing to do with their freakin religion. It's to do with the fact that I can't swim when I want because some minority group says so. If it was gays then I'd be criticising them... doesn't mean I'm homophobic. McCarthyism is alive and well!

            So, black is off-limits. What are black people called these days?
            Why don't you ask them?

            I'm sure they have names.

                You know what I mean, don't get pious.

                I refer to black people as black, or sometimes brown. White people as white. They are all happy with that. The technical word negro is off-limits now.

                      It was funny, that's all. Nothing personal Wendigo. Also a good point - though pedantic.
