No I don’t

But you used Churchill winning the war as a good enough reason to overlook his racism once you was given some proof of it.

To me that didn’t add up
Why?

Facts are, everyone in here, barring none, is a little bit racist.....

Correct, it's the polices job. All they have to do is force through thousands of others to get to them (police brutality :bandit:)

And yes, there have been at least two incidences of the trouble causers being handed over. Well done those people <applause>

I don't know if you've ever been in a demo or riot but It's more chaotic than that when it's happening. There's no big oversight of all the narratives and comments from observers about who's supposedly doing what.

People will have turned out for those protests either wanting to peacefully protest, or to stir up ****. Once the Police go in, it all goes out the window and those lines about why people are there are blurred in the chaos.

Why do the police go in?

Where's the line with this, is a little bit okay ?

I reckon Churchill saying he was strongly in favour of using poisoned gas against uncivilised tribes probably makes him more than a bit racist.

Good job there was no Corbyn grandad in charge at the time.. You'd still be stuck in London slum speaking German..

The line is drawn in history mate, i would like to feel we are much more enlightened today than we were back then.
I was born in 58 and didn't see a real black person until i was 8 years old (funny story i may tell one day).
I grew up using words that would get this site banned today but used them without any idea/feeling of what they meant. Now i am older and have learnt much. I would never use or want to use those words again even though they were said innocently as a kid. We are all learning all the time and things now are much better for all. Equal, no, but we are getting there slowly which is how most real progress is made.

Are you referring to the word Nigga?

Ok for blacks to use at the drop off a hat..But if a white man even thinks it, mayhem?
