I don't consider myself to be racist. I have friends of different ethnicity, friends of different religions and friends of different sexual orientation and I respect them for being who/what they are.
But to be perfectly honest I am getting sick of almost every news item being about black issues. We are all equal in my eyes, my life matters just as much as my friends lives, or indeed anyone else on the planet. Now I am seeing news reports of Trans Black Lives Matter, Lesbian Black Lives Matter etc, etc.
The final straw for me is that Mercedes F1 are now going to change the car livery to black to show their diversity!

I have a very sneaky suspicion who is behind this and it is like the baby, rattle, pram syndrome all over again. It is becoming comparable to when the do -gooders stopped parents chastising their children and we are still reaping what was sown by those actions. What are we going to be reaping in another 20 years when every other protest over anything taking place these days has run it's course?
