I realise it's FB and therefore a silly problem but.

Jeremy Fuckface Clarkson posted a vile picture to his twitter today of his equally hateful Top Gear colleagues holding a sign saying 'Gay cunt' next to his ugly sleeping mush Hmm .

He promptly deleted the photo.

A relatively new FB friend (fellow mum on school run) has just shared it. With a smiley face.

I am livid and tempted to comment. The use of gay as a pejorative term is one of my major bugbears and is, imo, completely unacceptable.

She has form for making me Hmm . She referred to a little mixed race boy in our DDs class as a 'half boy' in a conversation we had and I was too Shock to even process let alone challenge what she said.

I have to see her every day. She seemed like a nice person.

WWYD?

Sorry, not read all thread, just had to rush on to say half boy ... What the actual f*!

How ignorant.

I think her mind was grasping for the term 'half-caste' but couldn't find it in time so it came out as 'half boy'.

Somebody will, of course, now pipe up and say I've just said it's okay to refer to someone as a half-caste.

Just wait and see. Wink
