Can you explain why?

There is nothing racist that I can see in the post you refer to.

Passion maybe.

It is one of those overused words people fling about as part of name-calling, as an insult, and as a tool to shut-up an opponent in debate, usually where the opponent’s arguments are unanswerable.

Thanks for the support Grizzly, I abhor racism and the hatred of someone because of the colour of their skin is about as dumb as it gets.

So to be called that myself, and then for that person to not have the decency or guts to explain himself is low as it gets.
I know enough about racism to realise that it should never be used as a weapon to counter an argument UNLESS actual racism is taking place.

This idiot is using the word to try and win a petty little battle that is in his own head.

According to Professor Stephen Oppenheimer of Oxford University most of us go back thousands of years:-

http://www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/2006/10/mythsofbritishancestry/

The genetic evidence shows that three quarters of our ancestors came to this corner of Europe as hunter-gatherers, between 15,000 and 7,500 years ago, after the melting of the ice caps but before the land broke away from the mainland and divided into islands. Our subsequent separation from Europe has preserved a genetic time capsule of southwestern Europe during the ice age, which we share most closely with the former ice-age refuge in the Basque country. The first settlers were unlikely to have spoken a Celtic language but possibly a tongue related to the unique Basque language.
Another wave of immigration arrived during the Neolithic period, when farming developed about 6,500 years ago. But the English still derive most of their current gene pool from the same early Basque source as the Irish, Welsh and Scots. These figures are at odds with the modern perceptions of Celtic and Anglo-Saxon ethnicity based on more recent invasions. There were many later invasions, as well as less violent immigrations, and each left a genetic signal, but no individual event contributed much more than 5 per cent to our modern genetic mix.

As Simon Schama pointed out in his TV series the Norman invasion was only a maximum of 250,000 and they had to use extreme violence to keep control. We let that amount in in a year nowadays!
