Historically there have been other societies that made up their minds of what was "politically correct" / offensive and folks ended up walking around with stars on their chests. I have been "offended" by some of the strings on this very forum, and I didn't whine and wring my hands looking for my mommy, or a moderator, to make it right, I just avoided those strings. Folks should say what they want, at their own risk, and if you don't like it avoid it. If they are too far out of hand they'll get banned, but thankfully from what I've seen that's unlikely. I'll take freedom over comfort any day.  |
Just so we're clear- I AM NOT OFFENDED- but seems others are or might be. My mother always said I was the peacemaker in the family. Just trying to express my opinion in 100 words or less. Just trying to help everyone get along and offering MY opinion.
