    But pepsi, if those definitions are accurate, then by my reading it’s possible, to be the target of racist abuse and also to be racist yourself.

    Only possible mind. . . .

    Absolutely !

    Good morning !

    Not wishing to be pedantic but i thought important to stress meaning of the word racism as defined by a dictionary or two .

    Racism
    noun
    1.
    a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one’s own race is superior and has the right to rule others.

    2.
    a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.

    3.
    hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.

    World English Dictionary
    racism or racialism (ˈreɪsɪzəm, ˈreɪʃəˌlɪzəm)

    — n
    1. the belief that races have distinctive cultural characteristics determined by hereditary factors and that this endows some races with an intrinsic superiority over others

    2. abusive or aggressive behaviour towards members of another race on the basis of such a belief

    Just something to ponder about maybe ?

    My best friend gave me the best advice
    He said each day’s a gift and not a given right
    Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
    And try to take the path less traveled by
    That first step you take is the longest stride

    If today was your last day
    And tomorrow was too late
    Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
    Would you live each moment like your last?
    Leave old pictures in the past
    Donate every dime you have?
    If today was your last day

    Against the grain should be a way of life
    What’s worth the prize is always worth the fight
    Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try
    So live like you’ll never live it twice
    Don’t take the free ride in your own life

    If today was your last day
    And tomorrow was too late
    Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
    Would you live each moment like your last?
    Leave old pictures in the past
    Donate every dime you have?
    Would you call old friends you never see?
    Reminisce old memories
    Would you forgive your enemies?
    Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
    Swear up and down to God above
    That you finally fall in love
    If today was your last day

    If today was your last day
    Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
    You know it’s never too late to shoot for the stars
    Regardless of who you are
    So do whatever it takes
    ‘Cause you can’t rewind a moment in this life
    Let nothin’ stand in your way
    Cause the hands of time are never on your side

    If today was your last day
    And tomorrow was too late
    Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

    Would you live each moment like your last?
    Leave old pictures in the past
    Donate every dime you have?
    Would you call old friends you never see?
    Reminisce old memories
    Would you forgive your enemies?
    Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
    Swear up and down to God above
    That you finally fall in love
    If today was your last day

    Another if song ….. :D

    Ah ! The beloved deux chevaux …

    “…in 1948 Citroën’s chief designer Pierre Boulanger decreed that their new car (the 2CV) should be able to carry a French farmer and his wife plus 50kg of potatoes and a small barrel of wine along bumpy country roads and that it should be able to cross a ploughed field with a basket of eggs on board and not break a single one of them.”

    So funny!…….

    Btw if I can get Wordsy to dress as a French farmer…….

    :lol:
