I had an answer that was quite long...am I Politically correct or Politically wrong?

If it is correct for you but not for me...that is just two opinions don't you see?

Now if it is wrong for you and I don't agree...how can you say the problem's me?

So I say red and you say blue...and I think I'm right and you do too...

If we were kids Mom would say...knock it off ...go outside and play.

That term has lost all relevance and the PC crowd needs to stretch their brains in thinking of a new pigeon-hole term to try to force their agenda on the 'silent majority'.

Being politically correct is horrid, you have to constantly focus on the differences, rather that enjoy people for who they are...It is a form of prejudice and then you talk as if you are not...It is so coo coo.

I do consider that we both are polite and sensitve people.  A

Of course. 

However, the question that really needs to be asked is where was everybody when the social re-engineering systems were put in place in our public education systems? 

It is insincere to complain about the harvest when the time of planting was ignored. Do you know what the reading material contains that is being forced on the young people of the USA?

This 'educational' crowd has been at work for 30 years, where have you been?

POLITICALLY CORRECT IS AN OXYMORON.  There is  nothing correct about arbitrary redefinition, or altering the foundation of our society.  The bedrock of this society is recognition of the INALIENABLE RIGHTS THAT WE HAVE RECEIVED FROM OUR CREATOR (not from Congress, not from the Courts, not from some referendum , and certainly not from a President nor some self-appointed activist with an environmental, political, or social agenda.

An alien comes into our land with more rights than those who serve/served in our military, pay the taxes, create jobs, and those who faithfully adhere to our laws. 

Politically correct?  What an insult to our liberties_our intellect, and our founding fathers!  Freedom of religion, assembly, and the press.. The right to protect self, family, property, the helpless, and the right to vote should be honored by all toward all.  We have the right to disagree, and to say so.  Right?

 

Beyond that, I guess I have nothing to say.

Somewhat so. It is not my nature but to be in real estate you have to be neutral in many ways and that means keeping opinions to yourself and trying not to offend people.

NO!!  Quite frankly, I don't think many Americans feel they are.  It's a term/idea that has been created by the media to try and focus our attention and tell us how we should or shouldn't think or feel.  Take "The Donald" for example.  Sure, the guy can be obnoxious, but at least he says how he feels and is true to himself.  He says murderers and rapist come to this country illegally, which is true, and that turns into....he hates Mexicans.  I may not support his views or vote for him, etc.  but I like that he is willing to say what's on his mind and not worry about being "PC" for the media.  It's a breath of fresh air in politics and that is why he is leading the poles.  America is sick of the PC police!

Political correctness is exactly whats wrong in this country. Its made everyone walk on egg shells fearing if they are going to offend someone. I think its easier to just be polite, respectful, and do and say the right thing for others. Much easier in life.

We'll never be politically uniform as a nation, which is nice.

I do think though that there is a way to be "for" a political idealogy without being personally disrespectful to those who think differently.
