Strange getting all offended about the statement black peoples can’t swim, yet no one complains about “white men can’t dance” Funny old world
@AirCon Well ain’t you a strange person, on one hand you accepted my statement which tends to suggest you agreed with me. Then as the thread unfolds you accuse me of being a racist........
Who / where have I accused of anyone of being racists? At worst I've said the words in their post smell like it... It's rather like Porn.... It's hard to describe, but when I see it I know it. If the cap fits (based on whatever you posted), then wear it with pride.
My initial response wasn't strong enough. I made it clearer that I agree on cold water shock and not that "Africans can't float".
Because these people tragically drowned due to one, some or several reasons. I doubt the pool pump could have sucked under three people - perhaps a small child? Possible cold water shock? Possible panic by one, two or all? Possible inability to swim or swim well, especially not well enough to support one or two struggling panicked teenagers? The Guardia investigation may not be up to Scotland Yard level, but its also possible that this was an initial check to ascertain whether there was an obvious cause and that the process is on going. Given that by now there will be UK press all over the resort who are reporting every move, the pressure on all authorities in Espana from the UK Foriegn Office will also be considerable. Its unlikely that they will want to be shown to be imbeciles and I'd expect that the Guardia's finest will also be on the scene by now.
Will someone explain how it is racist to say that some people of a certain race of people can’t float or dance or anything else
