    You hit on a pet hate of mine. I've grown up a lot. I'm a very different person but I'm still fiery <laugh>

    A lot of good folk here have said "I'm not racist" or "I don't even see colour in people I meet" and - things like "Let's all be nice to each other then all this will go away" - well, good I'm glad you feel that way.

    Nobody is obliged to consider any of this in my opinion and if you do not, fine. I also strongly disagree with some BLMers saying if you do not join the good fight you must be a racist and whilst that might really annoy some people, with justification, I am not going to defend that view at all.
    X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X

    Maybe the solution goes something like this;
    1. I accept that my upbringing has left me with an unconcious bias towards certain groups of people
    2. I accept that this may result in the formation of negative stereotypes towards groups or types of people
    3. I want to listen to the voices of people who may have been treated unfairly as a consequence of negative stereotyping
    4. I am open minded and willing to have my views altered

    Can't answer any of the questions he's been asked on other threads ...

    ... so runs off to start the entire lecture on another thread.

    With the risk of a ban I have to say the Mods need to get a grip before people start abandoning this place. It's becoming a political megaphone for people desperately trying to put forward their biased entrenched opinions and little to do with football or having a chat and a laugh.

    The OP seems to have little interest in SAFC, football, other threads or even this site ....

    ... it's just a handy platform for radical views and the opportunity to insult people.

    I'll leave the thread now and allow the OP to continue endlessly repeating exactly the same thing.

    Threads about race started by Smug: 2
    Threads about race started by Shameless: NONE WHATSOVER

    Shame this original post @#284 will now be buried too

    In the absence of much ado about SAFC footy this seems to be the most popular topic atm

    Yep, that's quality evidence for a ban <ok>

    Shame that this thread got merged ...someone seriously embarrassed themselves in the first 3 pages here. It might have been better not to draw further attention to it

    You've provided plenty of evidence for a ban, 'Shameless' so you've earned one . . . . well done :azn:

    We mods have discussed it and many are sick of the constant disruption, so you've succeeded in your aim to see how far you can push us, which is to this point :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Some of your contribution had value, but the vast majority of your posts were obviously intent on causing trouble, so you've earned this.

    It's weird. He's been around for years and have never remembered any previous issues. Maybe this subject touched a nerve. Maybe just what you said.
