Those of us who've served in Commonwealth military OTHER than the U.S. are very familiar with the term, along with words like "tiddley" and "pusser". All having their genesis over a hundred years or more ago.

No kidding and I haven't addressed it because my thought is that even if you could prove there were a number of Asians there the next claim would be that Native Americans and Hispanics were excluded and I really don't wanna go there

So I'm not sure what you're trying to say, expect maybe that you have no clue what's going on...
Clearly you are the one who has not clue.
All of those black elements in the wedding had diddly about inclusion. They had to do with representing the brides background. If Harry were marrying an Asian then I am sure Asian things would have been represented in the wedding but he was marrying a half black women.

why don't you just stop trying to polute the situation with your pro Asian ideas.

How is a white family's wedding equal to the confederate flag again? I'm lost.

Just heed the warning. They're as bigoted as ever.
Britain has a White Monarchy and is traditionally a White nation. Just like Japan has a Japanese monarchy an is traditionally a Japanese nation. Do you go to weddings where a point is made about inviting guests so the pics looks like a Untied Colors of Benetton ad? No? Well, then why would anyone else need to accommodate you for the same?

Please don't make me read this entire thread. Why are people angry about an English prince and an American actress getting married? Cliffs' Notes version please.
