This is a war of words. Don't be a coward, bring it, no matter what your teacher told you.

Thanks Fuzzycatpotato for having the courage to debate, however it takes little to put your mindset into electrons on other folks screen, sometimes. By the way, I have a plethora of thoughts that would be definitely considered un-PC that I will withhold in respect to your indoctrination into the PC world. I will address your comments in order, as UN PC as I can, given my lack of training. Your words "Why Be PC? First, it detracts from the discussion. Consider calling black people "n!ggers", Jewish people "k!kes", Central American immigrants "w3tbacks", or gay people "f@ggots". Or consider even stupid names like "lieberals" or "c*ntservatives". All this does is make people angry without making the discussion any better. In order to talk about race or sexuality or *anything*, it very rarely helps anyone to start insulting people. In fact, insulting people makes them less likely to accept your viewpoint. Second, it's offensive. Why don't we go around calling people names? In addition to not solving anything, it makes people angry. This is the equivalent of honking your car horn when angry - it does nothing and makes other people angry. Making people angry is bad - it reduces their ability to think rationally, increases their liklihood of error, and slightly shortens their life. Don't do it. Third, it avoids overexposing underexposed persons to violent language. Why do parents avoid cussing in front of children? It adds cuss words to their vocabulary, allowing them to use them and making them think that they are acceptable. This will only lead to people using offensive words, other people getting offended, and nothing getting done.Why Be PC? First, it detracts from the discussion.

I say, first, You have referenced a bunch of racist terms in your argument, obviously as a lesson to myself, a "guinea wop", whatever the excrement that is, as if I don't understand racism, and as if I may insult someone out of pure self righteousness based on skin color, nation of origin, religion, sex or political creed. That is so PC, that if I was a UN hiring agent, I would hire you now. Unfortunately that is not the case, I will not hire anyone, as I am an individual, not a group thinker. Saying things that everyone likes to hear is self interest, not at all related to the facts. second, People need not not be offended so easily, and the law needs not nanny folks that are just "offended." That is just so teenage girly, that it ain't funny, but that is what PC creates in a state of law. third, overexposing the underexposed? what? This should truly be a nanny state then, and we are all babies of the PC gods? My point is don't let words hurt you, and teach others that words don't actually hurt them either, common sense in a nutshell, and not a PC way of thinking at all, I know. My freiends call me A-hole, no offense taken here. We continue to your next argument, and I realize this is an un-PC way of approaching a debate so losing is almost a guarantee, but it matters not at all. I will respond to each of your perceived observations of my self description in order. Fiscally conservative in my mind means, I do not take welfare, however much I have given to others, determined by a government that confiscates my earnings, based on their needs, which to me are, food, water, and shelter, after childhood. I WILL NOT TAKE WELFARE, or command other citizens to donate their earnings. Only cult's do such things. Morally liberal means that I will not disrespect another human based on actions that harm no other human directly, or for factors of life they cannot control, such as skin color or nation of origin. The most insulted in this nation are those that have, and they pay every day they work for those that have never paid a penny. How exactly is that fair? I am totally and wholly anti racist as I do not care what skin color you are, only your character matters. There are so many in this country that get special benefits because of their skint tone, never white, that I believe racism is still an issue, just now it is for revenge. Pay up whites! When was the civil war? Certainly before my ancestors became American, but still we must pay more for they? I am a doubter of the Ivory Towers of education, as they are the wealthy tyrants that make all the rules and control the general population, and the world is very little better for them no matter what they claim. The Ivory Tower is every bit as much evil as good, but if you haven't paid your dues to them, you are just cannon fodder. The most powerful tools of the Ivory Tower are Psychology, Economics, Political Science, and Pharmaceuticals. Tools of control for they, nothing more, but pure evil in my mind. Middle class birth is becoming a myth these days here. ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS break the law, which is mostly PC , the moment they step foot in this country. How much respect for the rule of law, which is PC based, do you think they will have once they get a free lawbreak the first time they breath our air? It is of course OK to break other countries laws according to the Politically Correct? I am totally INSULTING ILLEGAL ALIENS, un-PC I know, ef them, bunch of crooks. Thanks for your thoughts tater cat.
