'Hypersensitivity' is also a consideration when dealing with 'Racial Insult' (particularly when there may be a little difficulty in understanding pronunciation) a classic example of which follows;_

A 'Jewish Gentleman' was standing at a bus stop waiting for the next bus,

A 'West Indian Youth' bounded up beside him and smilingly asked the 'Gent' :-

"Hey!, what time is the next bus DUE Man ?"

The 'Gentleman' replied :- "I don't know you 'Black Bastard !".



'C'est la vie' :wink:

Just read this on a blog...

Free speech is like pregnancy - you can't be a little bit pregnant you either are or you are not.
