Some of the posts in here simply sicken me and show me the true merit of some people on DP it seems.
Look. I can't stand political correctness. I am against words being banned or topics not being able to be talked about. One can look to a post up top where I made comment of Obama's ears making him look like a monkey. This was not done in any way shape or form because of his race, though I was aware of possible racial connotations. And I addressed that and explained that while I understand the potential racist undertone, I would not let the PC-police keep me from making a legitimate point that had nothing to do with race simply because SOME could percieve it as racist.
That's PC.
If you're ACTUALLY saying something racist or bigoted...if you're ACTUALLY calling every black person a nigger, a mexican a spick, an italian a wop, a gay guy a faggot and you're doing so specifically to be derogatory that's not "Fighting against PC". That's just being a racist/bigotted jackass specifically out to attack people.
The "PC police" keep you from telling that joke about the redneck at the NASCAR track, or the jew joke concerning money. Things that are meant to simply be in good humor, or casual things, and not meant to be attacking or hurtful. The PC police try to keep you from saying things you could say about anyone else, about a particular group, because someone MIGHT be offended by it if they took it the wrong way. That is wrong.
The PC Police have nothing to do with it not being generally socially acceptable to go up to every white person and refer to them as a "Imbred Redneck who just happens to have their white sheets tucked away", or calling an Asian person a "rickshaw pulling slanteyed ********". What's keeping you from doing that is called common decency. Its called being a reasonable person. Its no different then refering to someone as a "cocksucking pedophiliac mother****er". You don't say that to people because its not "PC", you don't use it becuase it just strains common fucking courtesy you ***holes.
The rampant racist actions down here by some in the past day...not to prove a point, not in good humor, not in a joking manner, but simply for spite and attacking...saddens me and has made me realize how absolutely low some of the posters on this forum are.
