doesn't matter, he's equally pathetic whether he's just an attention whore, truly believes even half of what he writes, or any combination of these or any other factors
 
I can think for myself, unlike many of you who just follow the cosensus to fit in. I'm not here to make friends like some of you pathetic fools.

In fact, I'm actually trying to help you fools make up for your irrational throughts and poor upbringings, but you don't listen. Me posting on this board is charity work.
 
No fine and no punishment. So stupid, this PC **** now....now the Lakers are working with Glaad? Pathetic...
As usual, the vocal monority PC police must all thump their chests saying how horrible this is. Pppplease.

Wait. Whats your argument here? You anti-PC'ers always confuse me. Do you want to have the right to call black folks the N-word or gay people the F-word? You still have that right. You can say whatever it is that your little heart desires. But remember, just because you have freedom of speech does not mean you have freedom from consequence.

I think society is better off without some words in it's lexicon...you dont.

the bigger question here, imo, is whether or not we can change attitudes (albeit slowly) by changing our vocabulary....

the idealist in me likes to think that over time, if hateful words are removed from daily usage, it will have at least a small positive effect in attitudes...
the realist in me unfortunately thinks that's an unrealistic pipe dream...
but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try

the realist in me also realizes that there can be a backlash, and things can be taken to such an extreme that we end up in a situation that's even worse, which may happen if too many think that political correctness is being taken too far
 
I agree with everything you've written Moe. I dont have children but if I did, I would hope that my actions in life fell on the side of making things better in our society...at least for them.

Personal question for you, guy?

Is it because you're sterile (did I spell that right) or a virgin or the science > your opinion thing many suspect you of?
