Default political correctness

Now this has prob bin touched on before but are we taking the issue of offending others to far? I know this issue has been influencing our lives for a number of years but my opinion is that its really not necesary.

Ok an example that really got on my nerves lately was that a man was asked to take an england flag off his car by a police officer because it would appear racist to immigrants. Now i have nothing against sharing this country with immigrants (i'm now opening a whole new tin of worms) but we are all living in ENGLAND and should be proud to do so. I take no offence to seeing a turkish flag hanging from a window so why should this be deemed as racist? I'm not sure about you but i will not be singing baa baa rainbow sheep anytime soon! views on this?
