Again, you're arguing against the argument of substance. Name calling is for children on the playground, not for adults engaging in real discourse. What you call 'political correctness' is just a defense of unconscious behavior, of not saying anything at all. Nobody needs to get a thicker skin. You need to stop the name calling or get out of the conversation, because the world will not move forward in this way. Personally, I don't need to manipulate anyone to win an argument and if you thought about it, neither do you. My nose is too big and I'm wearing shoes that look funny to you. Get over it, because you will not be able to use this in any debate with me. I will only point out your ad hominem attack and the fact that you use it because you have nothing of substance to say. |

I am not condoning name calling..there is no reason for it.. But, to make it illegal or a crime to do so is absolutely ridiculous. PC goes beyond name calling..it is not just that.. PC is being forced down our throats to an extreme that causes more problems without solving or changing anything. It really is not even about name calling. It is about taking away our freedoms because it offends someone .... I am offended by things people say and do, but, ya know what? Too bad..Someone will always be offended. That is life. You accept the love you think you deserve~~~ Love cannot live where there is no trust~~~ Truth has no temperature~~~ Love like it's never gonna hurt~~~ Have no regrets~~~ |

User ID: 40124218  Colombia05/22/2013 11:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation |  “The living being had no need of eyes because there was nothing outside of him to be seen; nor of ears because there was nothing to be heard; and there was no surrounding atmosphere to be breathed; nor would there have been any use of organs by the help of which he might receive his food or get rid of what he had already digested, since there was nothing which went from him or came into him: for there was nothing beside him. Of design he created thus; his own waste providing his own food, and all that he did or suffered taking place in and by himself. For the Creator conceived that a being which was self-sufficient would be far more excellent than one which lacked anything; and, as he had no need to take anything or defend himself against any one, the Creator did not think it necessary to bestow upon him hands: nor had he any need of feet, nor of the whole apparatus of walking; but the movement suited to his spherical form which was designed by him, being of all the seven that which is most appropriate to mind and intelligence; and he was made to move in the same manner and on the same spot, within his own limits revolving in a circle. All the other six motions were taken away from him, and he was made not to partake of their deviations. And as this circular movement required no feet, the universe was created without legs and without feet.” -Plato |

Would you rather just ... say ... nothing? |
