<p>I might suggest you consider posting on the “Dr.” thread as well, and apologize to the posters there too who were offended. Regardless of one’s background, and whether or not one believes that one nationality is or is not any more sensitive or touchy than others, one must abide by a forum’s terms of service, which expects a courteous discourse. There may be sites where verbal free-for-alls are permitted. For those who enjoy that, those are great places to go. Some of us at times take the “clown in the bullring” role, and find ourselves the target of the bull’s attack. Lets hope there will be less need to take on that role in the future.</p>
