I think all political correctness should be considered politically incorrect. I don't think we need thought police. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2229719/Apology-over-'offensive'-puppy-police-advert-after-Muslim-complaints.html

I see that Political Correctness has actually HIJACKED your Politicians thinking process. What a shame. I see the same, but not quite that extreme, happening here in the USA. Political Correctness will destroy this World as we know it.

You just stepped over it buddy. lol.Rest assured that the line is well behind you.I'm not sure, but I think questioning political correctness is itself politically incorrect.

Get rid of it now! It is ridiculous and it's making everyone out to be wimps. Can't say this, can't do that, can't eat this, can't drive that. It's not about being civil, it's about insulting someone's intelligence. It's about watering down culture through "multiculturalism."Edit: Sometimes what you can say in a church, you can't say at school. "God is love."" Gasp! You traitor! Go to the office and how dare you make such a hateful bigoted statement like that. I'm calling your parents and police!"

A population that has less than .2% of the mass population. Chances of them ever hearing me aren't in their favor so I don't think about it.

We should get rid of it entirely. Someone will always be offended and groups use it to shut off any debate or disagreement. Peace

articles like that, are only strawman arguments to attack political correctness.People create these strawman arguments, even including other stupidity as political correctness, in order to gain support against a practice that support multiculturalism.What is out of control, is people who don't actually know what political correctness is.90% of the stuff right-wingers attribute to political correctness isn't even what political correctness is.But this situation here is a valid response to an ugly situation, because most things like racism, if not caught early will be a part of that person when they are older. Most characteristics of individual behavior are learned at early ages.If you wouldn't say it in church, why would you suport saying it anywhere in public.Why does right-wing thought conflict with itself time and time again?

I don't know but everytime I think it hits bottom a story like this comes along to prove me wrong.Now the government is going to tell me what I should like or not like as far as food or I am a racist.PC is out of control pure and simple.
