as an Arab myself, I've done a fair bit of ship stripping and this may be a great idea. I may have enough tools in my backyard to strip a container ship and so does my neighbour Abdul Mohamed.

Ah yes, the solution isn't to consult experts, but to step back and expect racist stereotypes to solve the problem!

Brilliant!

I can understand your reaction, but the commenter might not have been thinking about racism that way. It's not crazy to think that poor people near a waterway might know a thing or two about strip salvaging. It was just phrased poorly, I think.

You are a total imbecile, Sir.
