MODERATORS
I generally feel you shouldn't say anything about one race you wouldn't replace with another. Like, you wouldn't replace white with black.
Also you should insult people's behavior or choices, not intrinsic things they can't pick or change.
That said, if I understand the article, this was said to a cop and got for them to react like this is comically soft
I'm glad you've said this. For a harmonious society situations like this have to be treated reasonably equally.
But its such a silly thing to do for such a high profile personality like Kerr. Tje bastards will have a field day! If she actually said it of course, because she has registered her innocence, indicating she disagrees quite sharply with the cops interpretation of events.
