Anyways what's controversial about wanting equality and a level playing field? All these groups whining and wailing "look at us we're different" ain't doing themselves any favours. Quite the opposite,in fact.

I do a love a bitter. What yeast are you using?

I completely agree with equality of opportunity. There's a difference between, 'Look at us we're different' and celebrating it, and 'Look at us we're different, give us stuff because we are' and another difference between 'Look at them over there, lets give them less stuff than everyone else because their different'

I think we're all pretty much saying the same thing, any discrimination is bad.

The problem as I see it is the people who say its ok to discriminate as long as you discriminate against the people we think you should discriminate against.
