Margaret Thatcher pointed this out often that, tragically, feelings have become more important than ideas. FAME has become more important than ACTION. Social media has only worsened this phenomena.

I like it. I’m sorry someone chooses to be offended ... however; that is ‘on them’, they can stay away.

The Constitution offers no protection from being offended. It does, however, place a secure armor around the right to speak one’s mind. And that right includes the right to choose the words one uses to express an opinion.

The left’s been using this for years between men and women too.

“My feelings are more important than your logic.”

Been like that forever.

That gal looks famous. Who is she?

That gal looks famous. Who is she?

I have no clue. Nor any interest in finding out. You sure it's a 'gal'?

If you are one of the professionally offended, then paint a bulls eye on your forehead now, because I will make it my life's goal to personally break you down and make you cry.

I don’t know her name but I think she won the smelly hair award a few months back. That’s why they’re called “dread locks” ;- )

[goat granny]

those that get offended so easily were raised to have thin skin....I cannot remember any time I was offended...its giving other people the strings to push your emotions...stupid beyond belief... As a child I was told...don’t be so thin skinned, the world is a tough place.

[Secret Agent Man]

Yeah, most people don’t see it as being able to be manipulated by others, giving power over yourself to others, weakeness. I think if they did it might change a lot of their behavior.

[dalereed]

People who base anything on feelings are total idiots!!!

[Arm_Bears]

Funny, isn’t it, how being offended isn’t a two-way street?

If a liberal is offended, the offending activity must be halted immediately.

On the other hand, if a conservative is offended, they’re just a racist/sexist/bigot/homophobe who is attempting to suppress free expression.

I get “offended” when I see politicians and businessmen fold like a card table and apologize every time one of these POPS* complain about some action or statement.

I have yet had to use this, but am patiently waiting for one of them to tell me I offend them.

My response will be along this line: “What actually happens when you are “offended”? Do you break out in a rash, grow warts or a second head? Please explain in detail how you are physically affected, etc.”

* POPS - Professionally/Perpetually Offended People.

I never could understand why someone would want their hair to look like the underside of an old dustmop.
