Nearly all my working life has been spent in the hospitality/entertainment business. As a result I have worked, lived and cooperated with many different kings of people including LBGTGQ community, just about every race and nationality. I have learned a lot from all groups; I have been welcomed by and enjoyed people from all groups. I have been mistreated and cheated by a few from most groups. They all were and are my colleagues and some are my friends. Professionally some were fantastic and some were terrible.
I am an old man and many of these correspondents may not have heard of a gentleman named Martin Luther King. He once said - and I am paraphrasing - we should judge people not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. Let us elaborate that so that we judge them not by the color of their skin, by their race, by their preferred sexual identity or their beliefs. The content of their character is what matters! King Arthur, I love your products and please do not remove me from your mailing list but please stay out of politics, wokeism or whatever it is called during business hours. In business I think you are great. In your private life, your beliefs are your own but keep them out of business.
