        This PC stuff is a bunch of BS! Why do people object to 'Founding Fathers", they were all men after all. I can't beleive that people whant to ban To Kill a Mockingbird too, it ticks me off. you can't even say "that sucks" or "thats gay" either.

          Well, you shouldn't say "that's gay", but why is "that sucks" banned?

            That sucks is a term from oral sex, and well, you know how puritanical the US is.

              yea, i got yelled at by a teacher for telling a girl she sucked, the (female) teacher went off on me for about 20 minutes about what i was implicating.

                  the teacher or the girl student?

                  I find that many women suck, but I fail to see how that is a bad thing.

                    I stabbed a girl with a pencil in 4th grade.

                      isn't that attempted murder?

                      If you did that now days that is what they would charge you with.

                        There was an article yesterday in the National Post (My new housemate likes the paper, which I cannot stand), on this topic.

                        They had one section describing how you cannot tell stories about mountain climbers because this is discriminatory to people who live in Kansas!

                        Unbelievable. Who's to blame for this?

                        According to the article, evil leftists.

                          They're not evil lefties. They're "ungood persons with politically-oriented liberalism."

                              actually I heard some conservative supported this for some reason, so I cannot blame all lefties for this.

                              but either way it is stupid.

                                There are terms that are offensive to certain groups of people, and those shouldn't be said, but free speech should still protect it. And then there is rewriting history, which is the most blasphemous thing I have ever heard. Not that I can speak of blasphemy, being as how I'm a hethen and all. But still, rewriting history makes me wanna hurl. Knowledge is power, for ****'s sake. You distort knowledge, you destroy our society. Ug, I'm being fatalistic. Stupid fascist liberals. I'm a liberal, but not like that. Gah. Bye.
