I actually asked my friends ..."how should I describe you, black, coloured, mixed race, Asian etc ?" I get my answer and I stick to it. God forbid I have to ever utter that phrase "but some of my best friends are..." I think some of the tabloids exaggerate the anti-Christian happenings as it plays to our insecurities...but hey, what do I know? I talk as someone who made a conscious decision to stop reading them 15yrs ago.<br />Batsby's, "it's not racist if it's simply true" is a prime example of what I have been trying to get over to my boys. (He just said it more succinctly than myself, I shall deal with him at a later date)<br />Anyhows 'tis late.<br />Thanks for this thought provoking blog postie wotsit.<br />CxClareyhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08087534228747428173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495971764170848323.post-83942101797298458122012-05-09T22:38:18.964+01:002012-05-09T22:38:18.964+01:00I really believe we are going to see a lot of civi...I really believe we are going to see a lot of civil unrest due to the unrestricted spread of un-English ideas throughout the land and the out-breeding (it's not racist if it's simply true) of our indigenous peoples.Batsbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06426643733506493701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495971764170848323.post-21620320544848873192012-05-09T22:35:08.098+01:002012-05-09T22:35:08.098+01:00Clare - sometimes I don't even know how to des...Clare - sometimes I don't even know how to describe people without fear of being non pc. The world has gone start raving mad! The BBC pissed me off last year when they kept referring to Good Friday as HOLIDAY Friday. In case Good Friday was offensive to some people. Well It was offensive to me! A Church of England person living in , I think I am right in stating a Church of England country? Oh my stars - does that make me racist?????<br />PS Bryan . I know.

So, trying to reduce our budget deficit is suddenly "extreme right wing, jack-boot persecution of the masses" and trying to maintain decent, normal,civilised British standards of behaviour is "racist".Batsbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06426643733506493701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495971764170848323.post-52065454613702664222012-05-09T15:25:18.382+01:002012-05-09T15:25:18.382+01:00Well said, reading this brings to mind how concern...Well said, reading this brings to mind how concerned we should be for the next generation and how they are being taught to define racism, many times I have sat my boys down to explain varying aspects of what is and what isn't racism; the over-reactive crowd of the P.C. have made our children terrified of even describing the ethnicity of their own friends, unless we address this we are storing up a whole heap of confusion and misinformation, which I fear will end in a wider gulf between us all. I'm not going to mention religion suffice to say that's a whole different can of worms, besides my head might explode.Clareyhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08087534228747428173noreply@blogger.com
