BT, I couldn't agree more, however, this is your Utopian world and sadly this is not the way of the real world. Why?
I don't know the answer, however, my theory is that there is always going to be one individual of whatever race, colour, religion, social standing etc. who will try to make political capital out of absolutely anything ---such is the way of the world.
History doesn't come into it because it is the here and now that matters and we live in very strange times, in fact, the instant communication should have helped in a lot of respects, however, it has exactly the opposite effect and enables these 'crusaders' to bring their troops together right across the world in order to engineer whatever they want.
