Political correctness dissolves in the face of free speech. Therefore free expression must be eliminated. The tool for eliminating it is taking offense.

I was facing my former business partner with lawyers on both sides. I’d just finished reading off all the things he’d lied about. Leaning forward menacingly...he was very big..., he growled, “I take offense to that.” I said, “Fine. Take as much offense as you like.” That took the wind out of his sails. My lawyer had a big laugh about it later.

If “No Offence” was published in Rhode Island, Sheldon Whitehouse would've already sent the publishers to the gas chamber under the RICO laws.
