Grrrr

They are boards, and they are black! Therefore, they are bloody blackboards!!!

Does this mean we cannot call a "whiteboard" a whiteboard?

Of, of course we can.

Because we only have to make special allowances for Minorities  [smiley=angry.gif]

I think you will find that many schools now have 'whitboards'
Your are right, why is 'whiteboard' not racist?
Getting way over the top, IMHO

Nope, all are 'Constables'.  Depending on the force concerned, could vary from Division to Division and Officer number.  When you change division you get a new number.  Round my way the number you are issued with stays with you for the time you are in the job and no Divisional prefixes.....

And, nor would we expect them to. It is the liberal left in this country who have taken us down this route. Started with womens lib and has ended up at this. The majority of Muslims don't care, but there are people who are paid a lot of money to come up with this rubbish.

Total madness! Just ignore it though and it will go away. We do down here in the deep south and there is far less PC'ness than other parts of the country.

Having said that, there is far less of everything down here.  :-/
