I was listening to the radio today and they dicussed being politically correct, i found some of the things hard to believe for e.g a 10 year old child came home in tears because he had been sent to the headmaster because he referred to the chalkboard as a blackboard and was called a racist, also there are other things i have noticed such as it is a sackable offence to teach or say the nursery ryhme ba ba black sheep, it should now be ba ba wooly sheep this as well as many other things is really doing my nut my black friends dont mind it, so how did it come to this ? please share your views

You're assuming that your African-American friends are representative of all African-Americans. Maybe some African-Americans do take offence to such things, maybe some African-Americans don't want their African-American children being racially insulted because of nursery rhymes.

Im sorry but if they gonna kick up a fuss just cuz a nursery rhyme mentions the colour of their skin then fuck em.

Im gonna ring in and ask that every Christmas they stop playing the song "Im dreamin of a white Christman" cuz I find that offensive. You see what Im getting at.

And this is doing nothing but causing more racial wars. Because some stupid whites will hear about how a Crucifix was taken from some place as not to cause offence to Muslims, and they will go round vandilising mosques, and beating up Muslims thinking its their faults. Not even Muslims want this shit to happen. Its just some idiot politicians who think he will make himself look like a fucking saviour of racial discrimination or some shit. They only making it worse. There is even a school in England where whites are not allowed!!

If things are offensive when they actually exist like your examples there ARE Blackboards there ARE Black Sheep they shouldnt be banned or punished for being used. When people say it more as a statement or phrase its different depending on what is being said. To a certain degree things need to be open and political correctness should be used. At the end of the day people should just use theyre common sense on these things and think.

I disagree with that, racism comes in many different forms, not just straight out fuck you "whatever"..

Go ahead and call a chalkboard blackboard, it's not offensive. Go ahead and say Ba Ba black sheep (unless it has roots like pick a tiger by it's toe).

I agree with being politically correct because somebody who vandalizes your car isn't a "faggot." A faggot stems from fagot which is a bundle of sticks, more specifically the bundles of sticks used to burn witches and homosexuals in the late 1800s, so calling somebody a faggot means that you think they should burn because of their sexual orientation Mr. Right-wing ass hole.

I think it is out of hand. The way to overcome racism is not to shelter people from the issue of race by trying to dodge it through political correctness. The result will be a society where people are affraid to even admit that there is such a thing as race. I think rather than trying to create a neutral outlook on race we should instead promote race for the unique thing that it is and teach kids to have enough common sense to distinguish it from those derogatory sayings. After all, it's not 'black' or 'white' anything that is the problem but this mentality that they are offensive. Teach people that race isnt about offense but something special to be, I dunno, enjoyed - then we'd be getting somewhere.

How the fuck is ba ba black sheep an insult to anyone? Its a nursery rhyme about a black sheep. A sheep! News flash, there are black sheep. What is next? Outlaw black sheep because it might make some African Amerians upset? Why stop there? Lets just outlaw the color black full stop.

One thing that really pisses me off nowadays is that people cant say Merry Christmas, its Happy Holidays, incase it offends non Christians. Ermmm news flash, Christmas is a christian holiday, if you're not christian and find it offensive dont celebrate it, but dont try to wash over it with this Happy Holiday shit.

Yes, this pisses me off too, when someone says something around me thats against my religion, I dont give a shit, not hurting me any... and it seems everyone around me has the same attitude, so who are the pussies actually offended by this?

but "holy day" can incorporate a lot more then christmas. Jews and Muslims have holy days, or holidays also.

And Rukas, why does it piss you off that they say Happy Holidays instead? What does it bother you any?

Maybe EVERYONE should say happy channuka instead of merry christmas. That would be better. Why not, you know?

Happy Holidays incorporates EVERYONE. People need to understand that, its not fucking attacking punk ass whiney christians, its not supporting other religions. ITS JUST INCORPORATING EVERYONE.

so who are the pussies actually offended by this?
Who are the pussies offended by saying "Happy Holidays" instead?

And PuffNScruff, shut the fuck up about blaming democrats dude.

Thats just stupid dude.

Oh and to back up what the other dude said, I do KNOW black people that are offended by bah bah black sheep.

"one for my master, and one for my dame" - thats the part that find it offensive I think. Because the BLACK sheep is giving its wool to a "master". In a sense, although I think its stretched, that is what people find offensive.

People arnt pissed that its talking about a black sheep necisarrily, but oh well, take it for what you will.
