Not only thin skinned but ignorant.
Niggardly is a perfectly acceptable word yet they fire someone who uses it. Tar-and-feather refers to King George's tax collectors in New England. Southern blacks were not tarred-and-feathered. Little Black Sambo refers to a boy in India, not in Africa. The list of this nonsense is endless.
If ignorant people kept their mouths shut we wouldn't know how ignorant they are.
No, NAACP certainly does not like freedom of speech. They reveal their desire for a dictatorship along the lines of the old USSR.
I was thinking about that very comparison. When does so called sensitivity become fanaticism?
