Offended? I am..

I'm white and was christened as a baby. So far this week I have received Christmas cards from members of my staff at work who are neither, but I haven't given out any.

This is not because I fear offending them (quite the opposite in fact - I have to reign in their enthusiasm for decorations, presents and parties at times) but because I'm a typical bloke who always leaves such things to the last minute. I have posted (quite tongue in cheek I may add) a few 'Bah Humbug' posts in December's past and am not the biggest fan of the season but when the day comes I enjoy it for what it provides....some time off from the treadmill of work and the opportunity to spend quality time with friends and family. The Hindu ladies I work with do exactly the same thing - the only people bothered by this are sad Guardian reading PC muppets and jumped up facist idiots. As someone has already so rightly pointed out, let's ship 'em out to a deserted island and let them sort it out between them and let the rest of us normal citizens get on with living our lives.

I'm not your "pal" nor would I seek to be...and I'll say what I want thanks. If you think I'm wrong then try and debate your way out of it. The fact is that you're views seems consistenly anti any kind of minority and you leave the impression that a good night out for you would be a pint down "The Bigot" where you can bemoan the introduction of non-Anglo Saxons to these shores in 1790 and discuss how you'd "make 'em all swim back." I may have you completely wrong but this is how you come across on here. Not everyone on this site is necessarily white and/or christian (so what?) and as it's a football site it depresses me to come on here and find the same tired old racist nonsense being trotted out time and time again.....

The only person who started to bring "Minorities" into this conversation was Trueblue..

"PC" Firms ban xmas
Read my whole post, numb-nuts. I said that there are NO preventative measures being taken to prevent the British from celebrating Christmas on a personal level. Companies have been doing so for years so I don't know why the right-wing neo-fascists have started to jump on the bandwagon ...

You just hate being wrong.. this has gone so far off topic due to the idiots who try and look to deep for something that isn't there at all.. you all misjudge and misunderstand,
i have not once related to any ethnic group at all and you all assume it has something to with minorities.. glad you took the time to read them though eh mike?
But hey ho.. i hope everyone has a good christmas, especially my Friend who is an Iraqi Muslim and i will be spending time with this new years eve
