  I went to a local flower shop that was very small and posh.
  
  I stayed inside for 20 minutes and the three shop assistants would not look at me.

  The shop was empty.
  
  Yikes.
  
  They were 3 white women and I am black.

  I boarded a train at 4am heading to an airport a few weeks ago. In my carriage there were at least 100 people.
  
  I was sitting in 1st Class at the very rear of the train.
  
  The ticket inspector walked past every one in the carriage and asked me for my ticket. I paid the upgrade fee of a few pounds.
  
  I figured he was starting from the rear of the train and working forwards. Wrong.
  
  He took my money and did not check anyone elses tickets.
  
  I don't for a second believe he is a racist as that is quite rear. But my ticket was checked because I am black.

  Have any of you faced Racial DiscrimiNation?

  JWs have had many secret letters and policies released on this website.
  
  Do JW leaders have a right to the privacy they desire?

  The one thing I hate about British justice is being fined for careless driving resulting in someone dying. Never understood that!

  Strong sentences for strong crimes. Totally agree.
  
  But having looked at some prison documentaries recently the American Prison system is excessive, archaic and does little to help these people rehabilitate.
  
  Just an opinion.
