> How do you know that I'm not Muslim?
I don't.But if you feel offended by something that someone has posted... Then I'd just post something politely to that effect. Gives people a chance to think about what they have said... If we don't say anything... Then I suppose it is up to Dr Bob to think about whether anyone from the boards is *likely* to feel offended in response.
I imagine that would be a pretty hard thing to do...
I don't imagine I'd be terribly good at it...> Or for that matter, a r*dneck conservative Muslim? :-)
Hmm.
I suppose it is possible...
I think the issue of blonde jokes has come up before...
Some people find them funny
Some blondes even
But other people do not
And some of those other people aren't blonde evenI guess the trouble with 'humour' is that some people aren't going to be laughing and are likely to be offended by the stereotypes that are made fun of... i don't think anybody likes to feel laughed *at*.
