    Due to the recent long dry spell and hot weather Dublin baths are taking the drastic measure of closing lanes 7 and 8 of the swimming pool to help save water.

    Of the highest order? This truly is the professionally offended age isn't it? Racism in the highest order would be calling someone a black/white such and such would it not?

    No its stereotyping the people of the emerald isle.

    It SHOULD be deleted as it is highly offensive

    Or maybe it's just a light hearted look at the world.

    I am sure all the Irish are up in arms at this.

    I mentioned his ethnic background, in pretty much the same way as I would call myself English

    Firstly the term you used is universally recognised as a racist slur. Secondly why did you feel the need to mention their ethnicity/nationality? I doubt you'd have referred to Cryne or Dennis as an "asset stripping Englishman" so why would you call them "asset stripping lovely person**s" unless there's some racist intent?

    Its far more offensive than the post in which I referred to a persons ethnic origin

    And clearly in making a point

    You didn't refer to his ethnic origin, you used a derogatory term that refers to his ethnic origin. I wasn't offended by your post, nor do I think you meant it to be racist but you can't use terms we used in the 70s and then act all misunderstood when people challenge you but then take offence at a joke. That really is the height of hypocrisy.

    Stop stereotyping an island, its an island like any other, refering to it as emerald is the most bigoted thing i have seen today. DELETE IMMEDIATELY!!!

    I bet you have a poster Hitler on your wall, pathetic.
