it's racist and bigotted to lump a whole group of people together.

I don't think lumping you and Fidget together qualifies as being big enough to form a 'group'.

lumping large groups of people together is racist and bigotted. dave told us that.lets leave it just now. i'll keep that in my back pocket.it'll come in handy.
it has already but dave in his tabloid fashion chooses to ignore it.
i wonder if he took tips on the notw reporter in writing when he whored himself to them.

Alright, I've let this go on long enough; tell us where I am alleged to have committed this heinous crime. Let's see a quote, tell us the thread, chapter and verse.

Still waiting.

Given the dramatically declining standards of literacy across the land, I don't think English teachers are in any position to be blowing any trumpet of "we're right cause we're English teachers".

This title of this thread is "Iran". Considering there is widespread confusion about Iran and other neighbouring countries, it was reasonable to point out that Iran is not an Arab country, and it was also reasonable to point out that it is wrong to lump all Arabs, or all Muslims, together, when there are in fact so many differences between them. But "landg" decided to make it personal

So, first of all "landg" accuses Holebender of "ignorance" and "bigotry"; then, when Holebender challenges him, he says "leave it just now"   -   but without withdrawing the accusation. Either provide a quote to prove the accusation made against Holebender, or withdraw the accusation.

Spoken like a man of the people without an education.

Gotta be proud.

Sorry..... missed something there.

What does he represent?

Falling standards in education in Scotland, France or both?

Or is he merely a commentary of what he sees as failed individuals?

Seriously I can't comprehend what you refer to.

No no, I think we'd all like to know.  You make a statement on a public forum, then you should be able to explain it.

As Shagpile commented 'failed individuals' whose current goal is to disrupt debate and win posting one-upmanship points.

Thrilling stuff.

It happened in my school days (skooldaze), to my shame  I was part of it......

I'm better now, learned a bit of French, German (I also understand Dutch/Flemish) and I also know much more than those who don't..... go figure!
