Words as weapons

Another shocking case, but it really pisses me off when an entire institution gets branded as being Institutionally Racist.

In two little words all of the good work done by the vast majority of employees of that service is torn apart. You simply should not paint everyone with the same brush.

There seems to be a cycle in the media at the moment of going through all our major public services, and tearing them apart. No wonder morale suffers.

I have no qualms whatsoever with highlighting disturbing cases, we all need to learn from the mistakes of others. However those chairing enquiries, and those in the media, should learn that words themselves are as damaging as weapons, and should not be banded about lightly.
