You’re quite a piece of politically correct work, sargon.

That assertion is simply not supported by the evidence. I've exhibited my politically incorrect credentials on many occasions.

There's a happy medium which exists between the extremes of political correctness and overt bigotry.

Please understand, I'm not accusing you specifically. I'm simply saying that I've seen examples of hateful prejudice on this forum, and when it appears it's wrong, it's divisive, and it's counterproductive.

There is such a thing as offering a rebuke in a Christian, loving manner, as opposed to indulging less tolerant impulses which tend to antagonize.

What amazes me is how even mildly suggesting that racial intolerance exists on both sides of the spectrum causes such hysterical overreactions. I must have hit a nerve.

It’s possible that you hit a nerve, but not the one you think. I think that many of us are just tired of having to watch as even relevant information which could affect the safety or lives of people, is being suppressed in the name of political correctness, or when those facts are stated, someone always feels obliged to immediately tack on some qualifier to mitigate those facts. I honestly don’t think white-on-black racism is as big a problem anymore, nor has been for years, as actual violence perpetrated upon non-blacks by blacks. The PC crowd is now having to dig up such farcical examples of “racism” as “white privilege” and “micro-aggressions”, while the media has been ignoring for years now, the epidemic of black-on-white violence, including an extremely disparate rape statistic.
