Political correctness forbids us from having a frank discussion about the issues involved here. You aren’t allowed to say that black on black violence, minority youth gang violence, etc. happens more frequently than such violence among whites. We have to be politically correct.

The left is outraged about this, not because of the facts of the situation, but because saying such things violates politically correct theology. The left does this all the time. The left is “offended” and “outraged” by certain comments, but do not address the content of said comments. We’re supposed to be silenced because the left gets offended.

I wish all that could fit into a tagline, because I would steal it...

The slamming of Paula Deen is an update to keep the white folks in line. We must look at ourselves as RACISTS!

Tell me about it. Heck, we cannot even have a frank discussion about the Paula Deen story let alone have a discussion on this one. On Facebook, I got into it with many others (1) including my high school social studies teacher and another who pulled the "I was just a poor, black kid" Race Card, he graduated ten years after me. I did have a few supporters though. I see myself generally as a libertarian and as such I try to see people as individuals and for the most part I do unless the person is so far gone into groupism, they become a lost cause. It's a sad fact, but true, with some exceptions, many minorities favor the group over the individual and use it as weapon on society to get their ways. I know Barry Goldwater voted against Civil Rights Act of 1964 because I think he foresaw it as weapon for groups to use to get their way against individuals, other groups and society at large. It paved the way for the group to be more important than the individual or property/business owner. I think all of that started with the sit in's in the 1950's where if the owner of a business refused to serve someone of a different race. Yes, it is not a good thing to do to another person or people plus it generally cuts into the pool of dollars that business owner could tap into under our free market system, but being a property and/or business owner does have it's perks.

Like I said above, we cannot have a frank discussion on something as minor as Paula Deen let alone Travon Martin/George Zimmerman case, if we can't do that, we cannot address these issues either.

(1) - OK, spare the "I told you so's" about Facebook debates, I asked myself in retrospect, when will I ever learn? Still there are times you can't let things go unanswered.

We ARE silenced by it- just look at the gop in congress- everytime a leftie fakes outrage, the gop tuck tail and cower behind the nearest upright structure

I have noticed some of the WIDEAWAKES EXODUS bunch who have crawled back

Like to use the word OFFENDED and call folks bigot and anti Semite and racist

Makes them feel superior and compensates for endemic lack of experience in minority environs

Political Correctness, ie, Cultural Marxism as it was originally named,

is solely about suppressing the telling of truths that thwart the advance of Marxism.

Just go to any city website and look at their most wanted mugshots for brutal violent crimes...LA, Dallas, Chicago, NY whatever...

The images could not be any clearer.
