Here is the edited version of first post in this thread. I think keeping the subject to cover a broader area is probably better.
It seems that as time goes by people are saying or doing things that are offensive and more and more people are offended.
The most glaring example, of course, is the US Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott debacle.
Many people were offended, but one person interviewed on ABC said he didn't think "racism" was a bad word.
Being offended is a very personal thing, though when many feel the same way it can grow into a movement. But grandstanding at being offended to shore up a person or group's side of an argument is helpful to no one, if it is not fully truthful.
Your thoughts?
