There is real trouble brewing I think.


Careful Bonesie, there are some Black activists trying to ban the use of the word "thugs", huh? well apparently during the 2015 Baltimore riots the perpetrators were regularly referred to as thugs. I even read one woman saying that people might as well use the N-word !! Perhaps we should ban the word rioters as well? The world's gone, or at least going, mad.

My wife is Black (French, born in Guadeloupe of a Guadeloupian mother and father of Indian ancestry. She's lived in the UK for 27 years.) she doesn't like being referred to as "a person of colour" or BAME. She is vehemently against the violence and tearing down of statues. This morning we were talking about Churchill and she said that he probably would have been considered racist today but in those bygone years he was considered patriotic, and he did so much good for the country. There is undoubtedly still quite a lot of racism in our world but pulling down statues isn't going to change that.
