I think I probably would have fallen in to this group had I not read those thread first. While I wouldn't use it as a stick to beat the less fortunate, it would probably have weighed on my mind.

I think it's best to educate the ignorant to allow people the opportunity to be better, rather than marginalising them - I think people are more likely to dig their heels in and feel the warm embrace of the far right if we do that.
