I have a question for you guys about political correctness. I think it's hogwash. I think minority groups are trying to have it both ways, not only controlling what they're called but also how words are used that used to relate to that minority group. I think if it's offensive to called a mentally handicapped person retarded, then it shouldn't be offensive to use the word retard as you please. The same goes for any other offensive word mentioned above. Thoughts?
