To be honest, I don't get it! I mean, whats in a name. As a kid I was called all sorts of things. Didn't bother me really. I could give as good as I got back then.

Now though.... Wtf!

Not so long back my adult daughter was prosecuted and found guilty of racism.... Why?, because she called a taxi driver a name!

She wouldn't normally, but she had been out drinking and he refused to bring her home.... Don't no why... But anyway, she called him a name. Now she has a criminal record for racism.

It's pathetic in my opinion, that calling a person a name can be classed as racism.

No violence just verble communication!

What ever happend to that old saying... Sticks and stone may break my bones but names will never hurt me!

Grrr... Well, my blood has reached a rather warm simmer now so I'm off to jump in the pool.
