Racism

I try to be very tolerant of other peoples views, particularly if I know them well.

I had a friend who was kind, considerate, highly intelligent, a little shy and all in all a lovely chap. I'd known him for 10 years.

We were watching a BBC news report about a hospital fire abroad. Apparently the staff abandoned the patients and fled, and many were killed. No problem, he said. That's 89 less. Rate they breed, they'll soon replace them, he said. There's too many of them anyway, he said.

I wasn't shocked. Heard all that crap before. I've explained quietly and firmly I will not tolerate racism in any way, shape or form. I didn't want, nor will I accept an explanation or excuse. He's gone. End of.
