I have been reading the past couple of threads with great interest.
Instead of dwelling in the past over a post for which an apology was issued, irrespective of the timing of the authors request to have the post removed, why exactly have the posts of recent weeks not offended you? They have been blatantly worse than the "offensive" post you are referring to. I have not seen any apologies, nor requests for removal by the post's authors.
You do have many "why's" to answer Tom. An inescapable fact.
