  That's the way to imply. In my country, we use the picture of a black sheep is among the white sheeps. Thanks for sharing, Mr. Josef :D

  I can say that a black sheep is causing trouble to Sweet Sandra and pushing her to take the decision of leaving English Club. A black sheep can be a trouble maker or a bully.

  Regards dear sir Joe

  @Rafal Very good point. And by the same token perhaps, the faults of democracy.

  @Nadiyah This is not really about racism, though it could be indirectly. Sheep are usually white in colour, and when we say "black sheep" we mean somebody who is not like the rest of a group or family. One common expression is "the black sheep of the family". The origin is the proverb, "There is a black sheep in every flock." (A "flock" is a group or herd.)
