Good article on the left and their "I'm offended!" tyranny.

RE :”Has society really become quite thin-skinned, or is acting “offended” a new tactic that is being used to shut down legitimate political debate? Progressives are increasingly claiming to be offended whenever those on the right disagree with their left-wing positions. It doesn't matter what the issue is; the left will divert a legitimate political debate into an accusation that the right disagrees with them because they are full of hate towards them. This puts the right on the defensive, and removes the real debate from discussion. It then becomes difficult for the right to ever prevail with their position, because to do so would mean “hate” had won”

I have experienced this personally here in Maryland discussing voting and voting regulations.

I got : “I am offended...” and got a lecture about voting in the South in the 1960s before he was even born.

The phony offensive ploys must stop. We are not a nation of crybaby fourth graders.

Ummmmm...yes we are.

I was in a “discussion” with a lib a while back and, after I made a point, he replied with, “I am offended by what you just said.”

When I responded with, “You’ll get over it,” and smiled, I thought his head was going to explode. Several people who were listeniing just started laughing.

It was sweet.
