In some places? Where are these mysterious places you speak of? That's not info, that's just you saying things... at the best of times.

I've never once encountered anything "PC gone mad!" in this country ever. Never have I known anyone been made to take down an England flag, to change the name of Christmas, to avoid the word 'black'. Literally never.

The only place we hear of these things are in the media and there is a reason for this.

By calling me names and saying i'm part of the bnp just shows that some have a mob mindset without being grown up about the subject, not ever have i made this into a race topic, that is comming from others. If i question political correctness does that make me a racist? If i disagree with a council calling christmas lights "winter lights" a racist? Lets all walk on egg shells due to the PC MOB.
Sorry if Ive offended you in anyway (you being such a sensitive soul n all who wouldnt dream of doing such things) Its just that you dont think about anything you say or have any serious evidence to back it up and what you say is spreading ignorance and fear which is dangerous. I was particularly annoyed about a comment you made about people with mental health problems commiting crimes as you clearly have no idea what you are talking about!

Political correctness is real of course it is. Its intentions are good and if people go a bit far with it on rare occasions there is no real harm done. It is the papers and hate mongerers who twist things to make it sound like political correctness has gone mad when it really hasnt at all. THERE IS NOWHERE THAT HAS CHANGED THE NAME OF THE XMAS TREE TO WINTER TREE! Sorry for capitals but that point has not been recognised! I didnt say you are part of the BNP that was a joke about you being on the mailing list, because its people like them and The Daily "hate" Mail that come out with this crap and you dont seem to be able to provide us with the links to your stories!

Is it just me, or is anyone else sick of the term "political correctness"? People use this every three seconds. It's overplayed and getting annoying!
