Some people need educating on what racism really is because the world has gone pathetically soft. Being forced to apologize for things that happened 200 years ago etc. Frig off and grow some balls. Jesus, some folk would have heart attacks if they heard the kind of stuff we called each other at work. Its called banter, some folk should try it, either that or wear a t-shirt that says 'i am offended by everything' so normal folk can automatically ignore you from the off.

Neither of them are races.

Eh

Someone said that the law of the country is "innocent until proven guilty". Well that only applies to the law, not to people like me and you. I can take the view that he is guilty regardless of what the law says. Likewise, I can also take the view that he is not guilty even if he is deemed so by the law.

Non white people do not need white people telling them what is offensive and what isn't.

As for the "forced apologies" for actions done 200 years ago, what actions do you mean? Colonisation, Slavery?

I would say an apology is getting off lightly. When a country still benefits from those actions centuries ago and the ones who suffered are still suffering centuries later I would say damn right there should be an apology. An apology isn't saying people today are to blame but what it should mean is those that did take part in such things are no longer revered or celebrated.

Repirations would be the correct action nevermind an apology.

Yet you are outraged by other’s opinions, do you need a t shirt?

As a descendant of Catholic Irish immigrants, forced to leave their homes due to the potatoe famine, can I put a claim in for reparations too? The effects of that mass immigration into Liverpool still impacts the area today.
