Does such ridiculous over-sensitive rulings such as this only go to create more divisions between the races?

It is as ridiculous as saying that sending someone to Coventry is offensive to the people of Coventry.

SP, no, it didn’t make me racist - but it made me angry. We’ve now reached a stage where little can be said or done without it being misconstrued by those who wish to appear to be politically correct. If anyone needs desensitising it’s those people because they create disharmony and conflict where there is none.

naomi24's answer which I have chosen as the best answer, hits the nail right on the head.

I am frequently called a racist, because I dare to raise such issues.

We constantly see such absurd political correctness, and un-level playing field issues, but if a person dares to address them, they are referred to as being racist.

If a person is unjustly called a racist without just cause, it should be classed as serious as any other known racist insult.

Is it any wonder you are called a racist when you express racist opinions such as
a white person born in Kingston Jamaica can not be a Jamaican. If that is not racist, what is it?
