I have to say that i totally agree with your opinion. I am so sick of these morons telling people what they can and cannot say to ensure that they don't 'offend' people.
The thing that angers me the most, is that when black singers have lyrics such as 'nigger' and that seems OK, yet if a white person says that, it's extremely racist.
Also the word 'Paki'. Clearly it is short for Pakistani, just as 'Brit' is short for British, now if someone called me a Brit i wouldn't be offended, yet Paki is highly offensive, can someone please explain this to me, because i must have missed something!!!?
Check this web link for a real laugh, politician John Denham was criticised by the police for using the phrase 'nitty gritty' because of race regulation rules. Now i really am confused? How on earth is that racist?
However, on the same page you can also get this link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/462229.stm
This time a judge warns how political correctness can destroy relations between communities rather than help them. Too right as well, it's just a shame that nobody else has the bottle to stand up and agree.
I am so fed-up pf hearing this political correctness crap. To further infuriate me, most people of other cultures aren't even offended by what was originally said anyway.
There are far to many fancy goody goodies, who are offended by absolutely everything, making other peoples lives a misery.
It's about time they began concentrating on more important issues rather than phrases that have been in the English dictionary for centuries.
Whatever happened to freedom of speech?
