We can't say illegal immigrants because it might offend them even though that is what they are.
We avoid using the term radical islam or terrorist in reporting news of terror. There was a hesitation to even call the recent attack an act of terrorism until the evidence made it impossible not to.
We can't say "all lives matter" because it somehow diminishes "black lives matter".
It's offensive to say Merry Christmas or have Christmas trees.
There are many, many more examples daily and it's like people LOOK for things to be offended by.
When will this crap end? How much is enough?
This is why Trump has so much momentum, because he touched a nerve by standing up to this and I think most Americans are beyond fed up with it.
I think the whole "PC" nonsense is just as silly as the nonexistent "war on Christmas".
Conservatives are just soooo persecuted.
By political correctness do you mean 'intelligent with a modicum of social and political awareness'?
By the way, I put up my Christmas Tree today and no one persecuted me.
When will we stop this political correctness nonsense?
Whenever you decide to.
I don't change my speech patterns because of it. I don't need to. I'm not running for political office. What anyone else does is their thing, not mine.
Actually, some democrats and independent will vote for Trump. My sister is a liberal and has always voted for Democrats and she gets excited about Trump as president. My husband is an independent, anti guy kind of guy and he also likes Trump. So I think there are a lot out there.
This current administration has failed for almost everybody big time. This is why I'm not surprised of the surge in the poll for Trump.

No, I see it as a passive-aggressive method of controlling and dictating public speech and thought, often taken to a ridiculous extreme and often hypocritical in it's application.
In other words. Grow up, get over it and move on! Stop being so easily offended and thin skinned.

We know Bush oh I mean Jeb supporters are closer to democrat policies than conservative policies.
Especially rich ones who relish crony capitalism.
Meanwhile, Jeb! has the audacity to call Trump "a liberal". :roll eyes:
But back to the question: when will the PC nonsense end? On January 20, 2017, when President Donald Trump moves into the White House.
