Cheer up, sad person reading the Internets. Because British babies are racist:
More than a quarter million British children have been accused of racism since the country passed its Race Relations Act in 2000, the Daily Mail reports.
Munira Mirza, a senior adviser to London Mayor Boris Johnson, says teachers are being forced to report children as young as 3 years old to the authorities for using alleged "racist" language.
"Teachers are now required to report incidents of racist abuse among children as young as three to local authorities, resulting in a massive increase of cases and reinforcing the perception that we need an army of experts to manage race relations from cradle to grave," she wrote in Prospect magazine.
If you don't count their remarks about the Irish race, it drops from 250,000 incidents to 37.
So <i>not</i> passing laws against race relations will prevent racism? Wait till Newt hears about this!
