Ask yourself this, lets say if Adam was Indian not afro whatever and he and Deana were called Baboons.....who would laugh and who would go running down to the nearest race relations board and employ a lawyer to see how much money they could get a the victim of a racial abuse.

Abuse is abuse when it causes hurt. Some of these PC guys act as judge and jury and poke their noses in making things worse and creating a problem where non existed. I am not racist and I have some really good Asian, sorry Indian friends, and one Japanese mate who incidently eats with chopsticks and dosent mind being called Asian. Some of these PC guys need to switch off here and watch in the night garden and poke holes in Iggle piggle and pepper pig, the sh.t thise guys get away with is of the scale.
you have some Indian friends and a Japanese friend?! Congratulations. Doesn't mean that people from the same ethnic groups must be wrong when they try to correct offensive statements you make. You repeatedly tell us you are married and have been for 40yrs, but I am confident a poll as to who here would hypothetically like to be your life partner would open your eyes to how unattractive, angry, narrow-minded, and bilious you are coming across. I suppose acknowledging some of the present concerns may force you to evaluate previous opinions, statements and actions and this may be too difficult to face up to.

By the way, some of your posts that have no sweeping generalisations, have been measured, funny and enjoyable. That is why I bother to whinge at you and don't even bother with the other guy who eggs you on.
