Get over yourself. She used an historically denigrating term in a strange context and it's done. Move on. Personally, I don't spend much time worrying about what Black people are offended by. I spend even less time worrying about what dopey, holier than thou, white people are offended by on other people's behalf. YOU offend anyone with an ounce of civility and compassion for their fellow man. Trust me.

It's so dumb that you think it must be satire.

Wow, some people just never let you down, there you are the HOLs very own Nigel Farage, frothing at the mouth, telling people off for being concerned about a politician being racist....heavens above, dont they know those bloody refugees need shooting?! Do you even know where that expression originates from, you racist throwback?!! It refers to slaves hiding in wood piles , in their efforts to escape in the US. Its wrong on so many levels, that anyone would use it, let alone a politician that its pointless even trying to explain to you and your ilk why. I bet you love telling people "I'm not racist, BUT...." Closet racism is still racism, but there's none so blind as those that wont see.
To be honest, I couldn't care less what you think. You carry on wasting your energy getting all offended by words and see where it gets you.

That seems a reasonable summary of the way (based on your posts) you perceive things,Judge .....and speaks for itself. Edited by legaleagle (26 Jul 2017 9.30am)

The simple fact is that the seriousness of offending people seems to be determined by who the offended is.

No,not intended as an insult. I thought you summed up your perceptions in a very honest way that speaks for itself.I still think so. I did think it was appalling,but that's just my personal perception.You clearly have a different way of coming at things. So be it.

As I have said, I thought it was remarkable in its strangeness and impropriety from a woman in her position but it was just a word and the world has moved on, spinning quite happily as ever.

You may have misunderstood me. I was referring to your post which I had quoted from earlier when saying I found it appalling. But,each to their own.

Right, so the implication is that you think I should be unusually preoccupied with what 4% of the population think about words that offend some of them and yet happily tolerate some of the very undesirable things that immigration has brought with it because the government and other self interested groups tell me it's all good?

Your lack of self awareness would be funny if it wasnt so frightening. My 'point of view' is live and let live, about as far from your own as possible. If you are referring to my religius beliefs they are that, mine, I dont seek to force them on anyone, nor do they allow me to judge anyone else. You see you racist bigot, my offence at you and your ilk isnt motivated in anyway by my faith, its motivated by my humanity, something you are obviously lacking in. Anyway youll be glad to hear Im off again. Kermit, Cukcing and many others its been fun, I couldnt resist coming back aftera few years away, but wasting energy on people like this moron exhausts me. Its so pointless and so appallingly corrosive. See you all in another life.
