This kid or kids of this mindset are becoming more and more obvious in the UK, some of you seem to be unaware that this happened in Britain, we don't
have Ghetto's although many may disagree because of the way yobs have been allowed to take over certain areas, and we don't have people packing our
bags at supermarkets, unless it's a local cadet battery or scout group, or you answer yes when the cashier asks do we need help packing bags.
My Daughter once used the word N****** and she was instantly put right and taught it wasn't just a word or a joke, and she never used any kind of
comment like that again, we have a responsibility to our kids, and it includes teaching the rights and wrongs of the World, I don't agree with some
of the things my Daughter witnesses online, but I accept I was once a kid, and believe me a lot worse than most of the dickheads who roam the streets
late at night looking for trouble, I learnt hard lessons and learnt them quickly as did many kids back in the 70's.
There are several things I will not tolerate from my kids, number 1 being any kind of racism, prejudice, discrimination aimed at others, I remember a
South African Family who moved into our area when I was a kid, and I lived in a place called Toxteth, one of the districts which witnessed rioting in
the early 80's, at the time it was thought to be racist riots, which wasn't true, it was rioting against the way Policing was done in that area by
the then chief constable Kenneth Oxford, the same thing happened in several parts of different cities, anyhow these kids from South Africa went around
using the South African equivalent of what this kid said c*****, they did it once or twice then paid the price for it from the local residents, mostly
White, the naivety of those kids back then believing nobody would understand what the meaning was, I remember their Mother being shocked at the
peoples reaction to her sons, because she came from a place before Mandella was released from Prison, and saw it as a normal way of life.
It has to remain the responsibility of the parents to make sure their kids are aware that this is not the normal way of life, but a minority of
ignorant people, with not much in the way of consideration, or the facts of Nature for that matter, meaning the colour of a persons skin is only down
to chemicals produced by the body to allow it to survive in different climates, amongst other Biological necessities, Melatonin.
melatonin noun /mel.əˈtəʊ.nɪn/US pronunciation symbol/-ˈtoʊ-/ n [U] specialized a hormone in the body which produces changes in skin colour
and is involved in continuing biorhythms such as our daily sleep pattern
It's not about race, I don't consider myself to be of the British race, and I doubt many consider themselves members of the American race?
Melatonin is the only difference between Mandella and myself, maybe it's down to lack of education, if any of us had the answer it wouldn't be a
topic.
I am not even saying it is down to this kids Parents, but the fact remains they should have had more of a grip on this kid, and I am not letting the
kid off the hook, he has to pay the consequence's for his stupid actions, or maybe we should teach Biology in a deeper form than we are currently.
It's sad very sad that this kind of ignorance is not about to go away any time soon, I am all for freedom of speech, but not at the expense of
another innocent persons rights to live without fear, no matter how much we think we have a right too, and every one of us has something we would not
want someone screaming in the places we visit, no matter how liberated we are.
