Do we take Political Correctness too far?

Political correctness is a restriction on freedom of speech. It's really that simple and indefensible. No, I can shout "Fire!" in a crowded theater, but there is scant little that I should be forbidden to say. Of course, I must be prepared to accept responsibility for whatever I say, but that is the price of all freedoms, isn't it? If you're not ready to accept responsibility, you're not ready to exercise individual liberty.

I believe we do! However! Somethings should be said with TACT and Class! Its not what you say its how you say it!

There is no place in America for political correctness. It is what has turned this nation from a place where differences can be openly discussed to a nation where honest discourse has been replaced by hate mongering. I am not saying that every viewpoint is right, or even valid, but I would rather the ignorant racist bastards be out in the open rather than hiding in secrecy. Additionally this political correctness keeps people divided, divided people are easier to control. I don't think that the American People were born onto this earth to be controlled. We were born to live free in a land that everyone on RP took an oath to defend so that we could maintain that freedom.
