That Q is for questioning. In other words “I’m not homo yet but I’m thinking about it.” Mostly the young soon to be recruited.

Not being a politically-correct type, I don't follow any of their rules.

It's a free country with free speech.

Free for the kooks to say what they want and free for me to do the same.

Speaking of YouTube, is anyone else having trouble with it right now?

I was watching all morning, and now there’s no content unless I specifically search for something.

I asked a similar question here just the other day. As we are now told to refer to blacks and Latinos as ‘’people of color’’. So if I were to refer a black person as ‘’colored’’, would they be offended?

Maybe “whites” should identify as people of color. After all, who is actually pure white? I do see shades of cream, lol.

Yes, because of the times during which the phrase was common and the connotations of those times which the term arouses.

I’ll fight when some guy loses his job because he uses the good old word ‘niggardly’. But some fights are just founded in contrariness; and not worth fighting.

".... So if I were to refer a black person as ‘’colored’’, would they be offended?..."

My point is, who cares if they are offended?

There is no Constitutional right to NOT be offended.

Political correctness is just cultural Marxism.

More commie crap from the Left.

That’s a good guess. That’s bound to be an “offensive” word real soon now.

Ummm. Mexico? Russia? Iraq? These are all countries where police will not stop you for “safety” reasons. These are all countries where police or other assorted people with badges will not dare break down your door, shoot your dog, etc., these are all countries where the IRS is unarmed. These are places where you can travel domestically without having naked X-ray pictures taken of you and being strip-searched. Wake up.

You’re welcome to relocate yourself to Mexico, Russia, or Iraq.

They’ve claimed it as a badge of honor, and we moral lessers are therefore not allowed to use it.

It is an elitist approach to shutting down the competition.

Served there, thanks. Now, like any real patriot, I’m not so much into smarmy quips but read the Constitution and marvel at how we have defied it; how a nation much more enslaved than we were in 1774 call ourselves “free” in orgasmic flag-waving ceremonies whilst surrendering critical freedoms, every year, to “safety.”

And they're really not quite so "free" as you tried to make them out to be.

but read the Constitution and marvel at how we have defied it

"Defied" ... yes, I was using that very same word in an argument with another fellow (who seemed to not understand how Constitutional government is supposed to work) a few days ago ... I estimate that 80% - 90% of our government should be abolished on Constitutional grounds.

Actually sometimes there is a second Q for questioning. The first Q is queer. Check Bing. Check Google.

Ok I believe you but I really don’t want to delve into the many permutations of this. Queer would seem redundant though since it seems to refer to homosexuals in general which is already covered by the other letters.

Don’t ask me to explain, it’s just what I hear them say. Remember when they said.the word, queer was bad? Pftt... what’s next? Don’t answer that. :-)
