In the same way, the PC minority are vociferously campaigning against porn, brothels, certain films etc, and also campaigning to have innocuous words such as; 'Chairman' changed to 'Chairperson', the labeling of 'Boys' and Girls' toys abandoned by retailers, and even phrases such as 'White Christmas' changed to 'Snowy Christmas' and terms such as 'Blackout' banned.

It's all madness, but effective madness nonetheless, because such campaigning is being very successful.

It is also a steady erosion of personal freedom.

I genuinely don't watch porn films, or visit lap-dancing clubs, or pay to see Chubby Brown, but I have no desire to strip away anyone else's personal freedom to do so if he so wishes.

Isn't Sony's capitulation with 'The Interview' just yet another example of the minority forcing their will and denying the majority from having the freedom of choice of whether to see this film or not?
No it is not in my opinion.
The issue in discussion is the UKIP members indiscretion no other sociopolitical issues, my opinion on that is that he was wrong and deserved to be expected to stand down.
