I AM a 47-year-old father of three grown-up children and I have many friends of different races.

During my childhood the now older generation of Asians, who had sought refuge or a better life here in Britain, were often unfortunate victims of ignorant, racist people.

However, as time has passed, the second generation of these immigrants now seem intent upon revenge and respond by hitting out at any white person.

The police today are treading on egg shells! They are running scared of racism, and have to be seen as upholders of ethnic minority rights. I am not a racist but I do object to the constant use of race as a shield against prosecution. These people are as British as I am!

The National Front are ignorant bigots but so too are those youths of Asian descent who resort to violence.
