It's not the same thing as laughing at him and calling him a cripple.

Liberals have tried to make it the same thing, and people are tired of it.
I see we're still playing dumb about what happened at the Trump campaign speech, where video clearly shows him mocking the reporter's behavior resulting from his physical impairment.

People who restrict freedom of speech maniacally are inconsiderate, and just plain stupid.

Bingo. Political Correctness, to them, means that THEY don't have to use any kind of filter. But, by God, YOU better use one.

It truly is bizzaro world. We're celebrating the supposed fact of 'we don't have to be polite anymore'?

People who support PC culture want to make it a punishable crime for people to say anything that is not PC.
What crime would that be? Punishable how? Last time I checked, no one has gone to jail for saying what they want.

Please respond. I really want to know.

I find that the people who typically complain the most about political correctness do so as a means to justify being uncivil bullies and bigots.

The Political Correctness folks have destroyed the word 'racist' by calling every man and his dog a 'racist' thereby devaluing the word.
Now most people would rather be called 'racist' than 'politically correct'.
That's the bizarro world that Obama encouraged.

Someone had to tackle the Political Correctness Liar Mob....no one has been as effective as Trump has been just speaking the truth in the face of the PC Mob.

Conservatives are to the point where they think calling someone a racist (which they do ALL the time) is worse than actually being a racist.

Can a coworker approach a women and tell her the truth in front of everybody: You are a fat black woman that was promoted only due AA.

Can a person on the street approach a religious Jew and tell him the truth as he believes: Your people killed our god.

Can a coworker approach another one and tell him the truth as he believes: You are an infidel and we should cut your head off.


Do you understand what I mean: In a highly armed society as we have in USA politeness is very important to avoid conflicts. It's not always necessary to tell the truth. Sometimes it's good to shut up.
