Political Correctness is a by-product of the 60s mentality. Socialism, love....blah, blah, blah. I remember when I was a kid the rhyme "sticks and stones will break my bones but names will never harm me." Somehow when the psychologists and socialists got hold of the younger generation, this rhyme went out the window. If the psychological profession would get a bit more realism and out of the feeling realm, we might see it break up.

It is those very 60's kids(myself excluded)who are running the universities, and public schools now. I really believe we need to dismantle the public school system as they have become nothing more than "brainwashing institutions" for the left.

Case in point coach of the Denver Nuggets Dan Issel. He was a member of the Denver organization for 26 years. Well respected and loved in the community. A single UNPC incident costs him his job and more than $112,000 in fines. An agonizing public apology didn't help him either. His crime? After being taunted and heckled by a fan while leaving the court after a hard fought loss to the Charlotte Hornets he said, "Go drink another beer, you Mexican ......., adding an expletive! By the way NO ONE would dare say what the fan said to Dan Issel for 2 hours plus.

I have been called much, much worse in my lifetime, no one ever lost there JOB because they called me a WOP or a DAGO or a guinea.
