Nice to see people raising the standards rather than lowering them.

The whole interview, and his other mentions of the subject, make interesting viewing; I agree with the overwhelming majority of what he has to say on this matter. He is a man who has made a success of life in acting and business and philanthropy, and successfully argues his corner, on the basis of his being a very talented, thoughtful, intelligent, articulate and determined man. Not on the basis of his being a very talented, thoughtful, intelligent, articulate and determined black man. I like and respect him for it.

I agree, I have watched a few of his interviews, one comment I particularly like is where he likens colour to religion "it is a good excuse for not getting there"

If truth be told about the Black lives matter Campaign, I seriously wonder if the whole thing isn’t actually making Blacks, Whites, Browns, and Redskins, in fact ALL of us more racist!
All for the sake of changing one word; BLACK into ALL!
OR adding the word TOO at the end of it.
I am getting utterly sick of it!

It absolutely has, it's took race relations back decades. The thing is, they've turned people that were on their side against them but that is probably what the ringleaders want. I'm sick of all that kneeling before sporting events and they are so lucky the grounds are empty or they would get an idea what the majority think of it all. Suppose that makes me a racist in their eyes.

I have to say the taking the knee genuflecting is becoming an insult!
I’ve gone right of the likes of Lewis Hamilton now!
It was bad enough him being a vegan And in a sport that is just about the most un-evironmentally friendly there is.
Then the little twerp stirs the whole race issue up again by kneeling!
Bloody idiot needs to grow up!
Don't get me started on that hypocrite, I'm not a big F1 fan but I always want the British drivers to do well but if it's on now I want him to do badly.

If and when the crowds get back into footie matches, I can see them turning their backs, en mass, on the knee bending crap.

Where does it end? Level war memorials, even Aushwitz etc and pretend none of it happened?

Horse people will know that there is no such things as a White horse. They are are all called grey.
I wonder if Lloyds bank will now need to change their logo?

Same with black horses, all called brown apparently
I think the campaign against racism in sport was starting to gain momentum until the clowns took over. Now the public is turning against them and if they are not careful all the gains will be lost.

Maybe .. to tell you'd have to know what the bildenberg set are up to or some such because this worldwide control has to come from very powerful people.
I don't blame individuals.
But I do blame those in power regardless of their colour.
Always remember "divide and conquer" .. whilst you are all treading lightly about your language others are making £Billions and laughing their socks off.

Ignorance or double standards?
