Here we go again, the Brit knockers are out in force as usual! Let me tell you that while I totally agree that what was done was wrong, what most of the do gooders and bleeding hearts, along with the professional knockers forget, is that this was done 50+ years ago when we were not so aware of our human rights responsibilities.
You CANNOT apply today's rules to yesterday's misdemeanours, all this apologising for, or feeling guilty about the sins of our forefathers is bloody PC gone mad. It's not a social correction it's a full time growth industry!
Just because there were more of them is it any worse that Gitmo? No of course not, because now we are supposed to know better, but it doesn't work like that, all that works are the 'trigger' words that set the whingers and moaners off again!
