The problem is some people are hyper-sensitive over words, and some people say truly offensive ***and then mock you for being PC if you call them out on it, and like 80% of us are stuck in the middle dealing with both sets of ***.

But it's not properly expressing the entire picture.

Some people say racist/bigoted/misogynistic ***and should be called out for it.

That's not the PC police. That's people calling them out on their ***.

Now, when you start talking "safe spaces" and "needing their affirmative places" or "a comfortable area where I can grip my crystal and chant," well. Now we've gone too far the other direction.

No Trump is not Hitler. Read about Erdogan a bit if you want Hitler analogies.
Neither Erdogan nor Hitler ever bragged about the size on their manhood on national media.

I have been trying to convince them, by mental telepathy, to take a vacation in the Netherlands. It doesn't seem to have been working.

And Niky still hasn't perfected his mind control device darnit.

Slate is particapating in an unprecedented vote projecting project.

They have a pretty good idea just how many voters for Hilldawg and the wig that roared have shown up to vote in the seven states they are covering. They have no idea about the voters who have yet to show.

http://www.slate.com/votecastr_election_day_turnout_tracker.html

So far things do not look good for the cheeto colored bandito.



Check this one out....

Trump may not exactly be Hitler, but a lot of things Trump would like to ram through are similar to what Hitler did. Patrol neighborhoods based on the residents' race and religion? Hitler did the same with the Jews.

I can do this too!

THIS JUST IN: HILLARY IS THE SAME SPECIES AS HITLER

I think one of them is stoned, the other one is drunk, and the admin on duty is high on paint fumes.

You being offended by stuff doesn't give you an excuse to censor other people...

Where did I suggest anyone be censored?

But here's the thing. The right to free speech doesn't protect you from...*gasp*...others' free speech.

If you say something racist, and someone calls you on it, that's two sides of the same coin at play.

Even if you say something that isn't racist, but someone thinks it is and says something to you to that extent, that's still free speech.

TL;DR: You have the right to be a piece of ***, you don't have the right to be a piece of ***without societal repercussions that are well within the law.
