I am having a problem understanding the way the question is phrased, Jim. I am sure it must be me. Anyway, to make it quite clear, I do not like people who use social status, culture, creed or colour to generate hate toward other peoples. It certainly annoys me but I am not sure what you mean by 'doesn't it offend you'. I am not sure if I do, or ever have, 'hated' anyone for any reason but if there was a reason it would be their actions, not how they look or think.

Which is why I do not like people who perpetrated this attrocity. I do not like the politicians, on all sides, who have used it as an excuse to engender hatred of any either our own society or Islam and I do not like the way you, and others, have used it as a reason to continue your own personal vendettas.

I don't know how many times I have to say this but I will continue until it gets through. I thoroughly condemn the perpetrators and those who incited them while I have no issue at all with the vast majority of Moslems. I am sure most Moslems would say the same about our leaders and ourselves. I am sure that everyone on this thread feels the same - something which you cannot seem to accept in the face of overwhelming evidence.

Hope this now clarifies my position.

Cheers
