I am not really surprised at the hatred and bigotry described in this article. Interesting how America's closest cultural and political allies can be so incredibly hateful. I have experienced reactions nearly as extreme in my own discussions with very sophisticated, bright, educated people. It's completely disarming. In fact, at first I always think the offender is attempting to play a bad joke.
Just proves once again that elite education, profession and culture often produce the most bigoted, hateful and sometimes violent human beings. Education, success, status and money are no substitute for intelligence, integrity and morality. Ever.
The really surprising aspect of this story is the incredible lack of common courtesy, professionalism and self-awareness on the part of the hateful bigot. Usually they are sophisticated enough to pretend to be more humane than that.
