Political Correctness = B S
Political Correctness may get us all killed.
Thank God we’ve avoided another Sept. 11th. But can anyone honestly say that our PC airport security is the most effective it could be? We search 90 year old ladies in walkers as thoroughly as visitors from middle eastern countries known to harbor terrorists. We do this so we can bend over backwards to prove that we are not discriminating against any nationality or ethnicity. I wonder if Bin Laden and his boys are impressed at how sensitive we are.
And there are disputes about what to call the war on terror. We don’t want to say we’re at war with Islam, though sometimes it’s been said the enemy are Islamo-fascists. We have to listen to PC people say that there are terrorists of all religions, and how Timothy McVeigh was a Christian.
And the PC news media downplays the reports of those who behead Americans, and play up “torture” such as Abu Grahib(sp?).
And PC distorts social and human problems. We’re not supposed to be “judgemental” about children born out of wedlock, yet these children have some of the worst problems growing up. PC prevents us from even discussing certain problems as this.
