Deerey, I’m very aware it’s not what you said and I don’t need to read it again to know that, “my friend”. But only a fool would ignore the underlying sentiment behind such a comment. It’s always the same with left wing, self-righteous “I’m a better person than you are” bigots. So, let me tell you very clearly in seven simple words: you are not better, morally or otherwise.
Siderite: “She is 83 and of sound mind, so can handle criticism.”
Hussey might have been of sound mind, but her life will almost certainly have been shattered by this; and no doubt a number of people on here will be quite happy about that given her background.
As for Fulani being hounded by racists regardless, I completely agree, and that is appalling. The saddest thing is that here was the perfect opportunity for Fulani to take a stance against these racists in a way that would have left them completely isolated. Instead, she’s just provided them with a great deal of ammunition; and whether you or anyone else agrees that this should be the case, the fact remains that it is the case.
As Deerey says, some — in fact, many, including at least some black people — will say that Fulani brought this on herself. Indeed, here doth lieth the problem because that is exactly what people are saying; and, whether you or I agree with them or not, given what we now know about Fulani it’s very difficult to argue against such a point.
