and then it's alright to generalise and make 
such a (in my opinion) racist remark? 
I'm sorry again..but I can't buy that.
If you lower yourself to that level, you're even 
worse!

My best friend is Belgian and one of the most 
modest, articulate and civilised people I know. 
It was really insulting to me to read that 
remark, even though it only seemed to be 
directed to Anna. There must be other ways to 
let her know her choice of words was appalling 
and offensive, in stead of using the same 
methods and be offensive yourself. That's just 
hypocritical. 

I'm sorry if this is getting out of hand, and I 
usually do not bother with these kind of flame 
wars, because it is so easy to take cheap shots 
at anyone on an anonymous board, but this 
Belgian remark really raised my ire!
