2. Even if I had been, are you saying that as an "officer" I have to be as professional and respectful as possible, whilst receiving abuse and having to accept it? We are not talking, calling someone a **** here. We are talking racism.
Had it been used in reverse, what do you suppose the outcome would be? Double standards perhaps?
You're an ex teacher. Would you have accepted a Black pupil calling you "cracker/honkey/ snowy/ vanilla" etc?
Would it be right for you have relied, "yes Sooty"?
So not it doesn't go with the territory does it. We/I could go on all night with reverse racism examples from the prison service- to political parties.

Racism is racism. There are equality laws in this country that a few on both sides of the fence, refuse to accept applies to them.
I guess from that response, you don't agree with that and believe that being a non person of colour, I should just stop complaining about it and accept my subjection then.
