"We can express any view we like, but must not pass judgement on each other. I intend to keep to Max's rule."
"The rule is that members can say what they like on any issue, but not pass judgement on each other."

In other words - anybody can give forth with a racist diatribe (and there can be no argument to the fact that this is exactly what Bluesman's contributions are), yet we mustn't describe it as such.
This is hiding behind a non-existant rule-book to allow a racist to use this forum as a platform
I realise there are pracical problems in preventing Bluesman and his ilk using Mudcat in such a manner, but this does not mean we can't tell it for what it is - you seem to believe that we should sit on our hands.
