Nobody should be discriminated against for their race, religion or sex.

Except for you honky-a$$ white-cracker Christian domestic terrorists.

At an earlier time in history, nutters like this would have been marginalized into that closet where they logically belong. Now, however, they are riding this wave of Ultra-hyper-sensitivity about anything that can threaten their comfort zone. Actually, that are reverting to age and throwing tantrums.

What is bad is that NO ONE is curbing their ‘enthusiasm’ but instead they find themselves making the news-cycle and finding encouragement from their peers and sympathizers. Academia is emasculated (LITERALLY) and replaced with rule-followers handed down by the Mommy State. I know that the pendulum will swing back but it will be ugly when it does!

Next they will be going after the millions of “Smiths” since that is short for “Blacksmith”.

Oh, and then there are the slaveholders Washington, Jefferson, Jackson—all those names must be abolished.

Maybe we will only avoiding offending the easily offending by calling everybody numbers—but of course the number 2 would have to be abolished as well because they signifies a monogamous relationship—bad, bad, bad. :-(

You should have contacted me. I have two therapy dogs. One's 85 lb., half black Lab and half American Staffordshire Terrier (aka Pit Bull) and the other's a 110 lb. Great Dane. They both like to lean on people. If you need a large therapy snake, contact Salamander.

It is not about speech, it is about control. Let them decide what is offensive once, and suddenly they crown themselves gatekeepers of speech.

OMG is Newsweek making a play for the millions and millions of people who are traditional Americans?

YES. I would cheerfully buy a magazine that reflected MY values and beliefs over those of liberal elite establishment types.

“...a generation that hates speech.” It’s also a generation that hates thought and thinking.

Of course-—there isn’t a decent tree left in the area.

This entire PC thing has gotten completely out of control.
