I mention that, yes, people do spend time being offended. You may not be, but I am. Your comment about the "English-Irish-Welsh were all raped and pillaged by the Moors..." really angered me. For your information, the Moors were never in Britain. Get your history straight - you are way off. I am first generation Welsh in this country and I do resent your comment. You should be ashamed of yourself. As for your comment about the Vikings and the Irish - for your information the Vikings never made the west coast of Britain - they plundered the east coast. I think you have said enough.

If we all spent more time trying to accomplish things, and stop the serious problems, no one would have the time to be offended. Boy could I have fun. I'm German, Irish, Welsh, English, Cherokee, possibly Jewish, and if I look at where my ancestors came from, wow. Germany (as mixed as America), Ireland (the Vikings raped and pillaged there, thus the name (variations) Doyle-black Irish, because of the terrible things they did (my maiden name), England-Ireland-Wales were all raped and pillaged by the Moor's (not sure on spelling)(a very dark race). I say "down with political correctness", lets all like who we are. It is really sad things like has been mentioned has to be stopped, because some persons don't have enough to keep themselves busy. Lets not let them do these things to us. End of subject for me. God Bless our Freedom.
Really now. Point proven. Please pay attention to what you read. Who raped and pillaged is unimportant. The fact that too many waste time finding things to be offended by is the point. I am impressed by your knowledge of history, sorry I don't have time to be offended. That's all. God Bless us and our freedom's.
