Venantius, As far as I am concerned, the attacks *in the main* are not racist. I have said so in the past on GoaNet.
Though I have experienced real racism in the East End of London (Kent, to be precise) at the hands of skinheads, I carry no chip on my shoulder. A smile goes a long way in "breaking the ice".
