It's only a discussion, not an agenda. I don't care if you and the Micks
want to slaughter each other over who gets to speak for "God". Your
business.

I'll bet they've learned to pass. :-)

Seriously, though, I've never witnessed any discrimination against black
people at first-hand, yet I believe it's widespread. Maybe my lack of
direct knowledge is a result of my own discrimination in terms of the
people I hang with. I daresay you wouldn't want to be around people who
trash the Irish or any other group.
