I see race has been shoehorned into another thread by Islay where it is entirely irrelevant. It is a weak argument and 'The Card' has been pulled out in an attempt to stifle debate because those that do object may (If I knew how to put 'may' in italics I would) feel the need to defend themselves against an unfounded and unfair allegation of racism.
As far as this chap is concerned, I see no problem with it.
