Vendee, stop being such a bl00dy pedant! Regardless of whether the view was genuinely held or not, it's still ignorant at best!
Just because you don't agree with what he said, doesn't make his post ignorant. I'm sure others hold his view but perhaps don't feel they can express it in this forum with its largely right wing over 50's demographic for fear of the aforementioned group calling for posts to be deleted and posters banned.
I'm all in favour of differing views if it promotes a good debate although I do admit the person who made the post in question has been keeping his head down since.
