Sorry - Call to important stuff (breakfast) made me let the post go without preef rooding. Apologies for the mis-spellings. I did notice one other thing on a re-read.

Jim says

Which side are YOU on boy

I am sure it was intended to get an angry reaction. It didn't. Calling a 60 year old man 'boy' is vaguely humorous but it also shows the respect the writer has to his fellow man. And no amount of whining about the rights of minorities will alter the fact that they are happy to treat someone as their inferior.

Now, once again Jim, were the perpetrators mad or not?

Cheers
