People who are "offended"....

....it seems to me that there is always someone offended by something these days. In the news or whatever, theirs always a group or religion that get offended. Whether it be a video game, movie, tv show, national flag, christmas. someone is always getting offended by something. Is anyone else sick of hearing these stories?

indeed

I visisted America this summer ( New York, Washington and Miami)...I noticed that they get offended by pretty much everything.MilkyStream

It always amazes me liberalism (of which I am probably a partaker to acertain extent)...

Most of it is great stuff...a good critique of exploitation and exposing wrongdoings of the world and proposing a advancement to an equitable and civilised place where most of us would want to be.

What worries me is theextreme where we all have to be so ideologically correct that the extreme would be a totalitarian conformity where nobody can think, express or do anything original without sanction.

Maybe a good critique of what is wrong with the world, but as I said total liberalism would lead to a totalitatian world...no character or difference, just an ideoligical clone...best off not reproducing humans and let the cyboids do the job as they would be ideally suited lol

To be honest, I'd bet my PC that most of them do it for the money and publicity. No one in their right mind can actually be offended by something as trivial as their tomato sauce not being runny enough.gingefails

Yea, considering that fact that pretty much nothing offends me.

Yes its so annoying! Speak truth about any group in the US: white, black, yellow, tan, green, even freakin sky blue, and your a racist! I hate liberalism here, it seeks to stifle any constructive criticism or speech, which is why (despite the evils for the past 8 years) I am more republican than democrat. At least I can say what I want to say

Can't say I've ever been offended. annoyed over the dumb comments some folk make about some of the things I do, yes but I don't count that as being offended. fastesttruck

People are too serious now a days, which begs the question: Why So Serious?woonsa

I am offended that you say people are easily offended!

You can start here with these forums. Say one little thing and bam, you are moderated.

I'm offended by the way the White Sox played this year. The Bears are number 2 on my list in being offended by

If someone does something that doesn't harm me or anyone else, then I'm not offended. I don't see why people care so much about stupid things.

Yeah, but I kind of understand it. I'm pretty sure that the internet and most forms of media has desensitized everyone on this forum where as people who grew up exposed to less bad stuff would have different tolerances to what they find offensive. I'm sure everyone has the potential to get offended.

your opinion offends me. i doubt that you've been in enough American cities to base your opinion on. sure some of the areas inside of these American cities could arguably be annoying, but calling all cities in America annoying is just flaming.

annoying in what way??

Ya, like people being offended by people wishing them a merry christmas.

Yeah, it's irritating and I'll never really understand it. I guess I'm just not easily offended...and if I happen to be offended, I usually keep quiet about it.t3hrubikscube

I'm honestly annoyed by those who want to limit word usage because they are offended by it. I mean, they're just words. You give far too much power to them. I also don't understand why I don't get to chastise people for words I find offensive; like axk or other bad grammar.Vandalvideo
