PC Madness!

Sadly these days Dave the race card is played when it has nothing at all to do with ones race. We do not know all the facts here, but it does sound as if the kid is just not that great at playing football and the reason he gets substituted

On another thread that was running on here a few years ago, I talked about how the teachers have to make reports about so called alleged racial abuse in schools. More often than not with was just normal fallouts between kids in the play ground, they soon made up afterwards, but putting a race label on it just made kids see colours where they did not then before.

The world has gone PC mad Dave; I now live in a country where you so often end up saying nothing as you are unsure if you are still allowed to say what you wanted too. Risk doing so and you run the further risk of someone sticking a label on you and saying you are this or that. It has meant you have to keep some of the opinions you hold to yourself, maybe only being brave enough to share them when you know you are only talking with family or close friends. So much for living in a free country that is meant to have free speech.

Can you create a climate change thread, dtg? Dropping your views on it in with other such gems as 'Jewish banking cartels' willy nilly gets a bit disconcerting at times. Come to think of it, 'PC Madness' is perhaps the best place for this barnpottery. Fat cat legal aid bleddy accountants, wibble ad nauseam.... Some might think you give out more than your fair share of crackpot free speech. Although I hear free speech is soon to go anyway, dtg. For as your preferred infowars website today suggests, 'if your gun rights are lost, you will soon lose free speech'. Whatever next - 'a secretive power elite is conspiring to rule the world via an authoritarian global government.' FFS

I think I am going to have to read this thread very carefully.

Not too sure as to what is wrong with schools having a zero tolerence policy on racism and as to having to write a report, surely that is part and parcel of investigating the issue fully and determining the root cause so the matter can be dealt with in an appropriate fashion and also have something on record if it is raised again at a later date such as when a complaint is made.

Edit: New proposals on racism from UEFA link

That would be good. I think we are in agreement that any response should be proportionate with a view to nipping this unacceptable behaviour in the bud.
