You know very well that it does not. All I am saying is we need to be consistent. We are not.
Those items that are deemed to be "offensive" are selected by the 'left' and are very selectively enforced (usually with pressure exerted by 'leftist' organizations. Usually such actions are taken against Christian White Males and others deemed to be 'politically incorrect'.
We cannot deem the action taken against the kid who raised his fist in a defiant salute, to be protected, while simultaneously prosecuting selected individuals for other similar offenses.
As for myself I belive there to be one set of rules and they should be enforced with equality. I am certain that you agree on that point as well.
