It's fortunate that I'm not as easily offended as you claim to be.

And yet you fail to see that you're whole argument is one based on racism. You ARE a racist. You might not like to admit it. You might not even recognise it, but you can't write what you write unless you think like a racist.

Take a long hard look at yourself and accept it. But also accept that you're not representative of Palace fans (thank god)

Again with the insults.

If you think that merely noticing something, anything, makes you any kind of anything, you are a nut case.

Insult? Bless. Fool is simply a statement of fact. FOOL

I havent said that I'm offended by anything I've said that your comments are clearly offensive. I would ask you to run it past your diverse bunch of friends, but then nobody fairminded or open to people of other races would start such a ludicrous thread to begin with.

You've yet to even make a point. You've wriggled between being unclear over what specifically it was that unsettled you.. the demographics of the news or those on the news, to clarifying that it was the news coverage, to stating that it was specifically the news that night. So you're become so annoyed by the racial demographics of the news on one specific night because you think there's a liberal agenda to promote stories involving non white individuals? And that those tuning it may have thought they were watching a 'foreign channel'. Keep smoking the good stuff.

In fact "fool" has never been a statement of fact.

But don't let me stop you making a "fool" of yourself.

In the context of describing you, it so is.


I wonder if it bothers you that there is a disproportionate number of black players in the Palace team.?

I'm gonna stop now, because 'debating' with you is the equivalent of fisty-cuffs with a cripple. One sided bullying. So take your s*** to school where they might be impressed

You seem to have gone into some sort of meltdown.

I've made a simple observation about how some people in parts of the country other than London might react to the ITV news on one particular night. A statement that was coerced by you with a leading question. The thread was not even about that but a far wider topic about the media and politics.

Now, as you might have gathered, I can argue all day and night but I would prefer to let you have your melt down in peace.
No doubt you will make yourself feel better by having the last word, thinking that it will some how make you victorious.

Guess what? I don't care.

Of course if you had actually read the thread, if you are indeed capable, you would know the answer to that question.

But thank fo for not "bullying" me. I mean, I'm clearly out of my depth with an intellect like yourself.

So you were so disturbed by the racial demographics of the ITV news on one night that you felt the need to make an empassioned post about the over representation of non whites on it? What disingenuous nonsense. As I said, I took the time to watch the evening news and saw almost no non white faces. Am I to expect that I can find a past thread on here of you wetting yourself about the lack of minorities present on the news on one day or another? It doesn't exist does it. I wonder why... If you're going to lie, at least make it believable. You've made yourself look incredibly foolish. Have your hot chocolate and go to bed.

Thanks.

Nobody thinks that they're a racist. Everyone thinks that a racist is someone more racist than they are.

I don't think he is on that particular point Kermit.

My wife is always commenting on the fact that the BBC seems over represented with Asian/Black/Disabled/Gay presenters.

She is totally unpolitical and rarely expresses an opinion (I know I do more than enough for both of us)... but even she can spot political correctness in action and the BBC have obviously employed a positive discrimination in this regard it seems.

Not obviously. Demonstrably.

This, I suspect, is only the overt side of the story. Incidentally, it doesn't make one racist to point out the facts.

Er no.

You are nothing if not predictable.

I suppose you think that maybe wish I hadn't started this thread, or maybe that was your hope, but you'd be wrong.
It has highlighted exactly the sort of reaction the average person gets, even in post Brexit Britain, to making a simple observation about the country in 2016.

The French election are coming up soon.

He was refering to the racial make up on stories on the news. This is not the same issue.
