I don't like some foreign cultures and I am sure I would be prepared to argue about them, but I could not harm them. The only time I would consider that is if they were harming an innocent human being.
I think Ian Grillot showed great courage.
Nor do I.

I don't think that comment is ridiculous - the guy is unhinged!

I also agree that the likes of Farage and Trump are very much to blame in no insignificant way for their part in not only legitimising racism but inciting it. These people and people like them are scum - they have no role and no place in the future of humanity, only the destruction of it.

Thank Azz.

Since Farage in the UK, and Trump in the US, have been strutting their stuff, racism appears to be much more to the fore these days.

As the UK is one of the most humane countries in the world .
That is one reason people still want to come here to live .
Other countries are so brutal even to their own citizens of the same creed and colour there is no comparison .
Women are mistreated in their own countries not because of their creed or colour but because they are second class citizens and judged differently simply because of their gender .
Racism is practised on people because of their colour all over the east in many cases it's degrees of colour .
The caste system although technically illegal is still practised In The sub continent and what more racist than the caste system ?
People of all colours and creeds are treated much better in the Uk than in their own lands.

Blacks seem to be targeted more than whites by the police in that country.

Re: Wish there were more Heroes like Ian Grillot

Probaby it's pretty grim to be black in the USA unless you are the President of course !
On the other hand it's pretty grim to be black ( or white)in Mugabes Zimbabwe or any amount of other countries in Africa .

Slightly off topic .
To be born albino in Africa is quite literally a death sentence as the limbs of albinos are considered tribal medicine albino children are frequently hacked to death.
