Can i say that. Now that you have to be carefull about saying thing, how have you limited yourself. Can you still tell that joke,tell someone you dont like there perfume,or really speak your mind about how you feel about an issue. Do you just fine people that just talk, and think like you, so you can openly express yourself?

I speak/write as I always have.
Manners & respect for others is how I live.

I believe there's a way of expressing whatever it is you want to express with respect and kindness, if you choose to. Sometimes it's more difficult, but it can be done.

being pc is a crock....I am a free male who was born in the united states. I have the Constitution of the United States that allows Me to say what I think and write what I feel. No government official elected or appointed is going to tell Me what I can and can't say. People have allowed their skin to become to thin. noone wants to say what they think anymore.

I still tell it like it is. I never try to rude, unless prompted lol
I still have my freedom of speech and to be honest, you will just NEVER make everyone happy. You can NEVER be "pc" enough. There is always something you will say or do that may offend somebody so I don't bother anymore.
I try to be a good and understanding person and that's the best I can do.
There are just to many times people get offended over things that don't even concern them or they should just blow off. I am not on this earth to make everyone else happy and feel accepted, I will tell you that.

It seems as though the people of the United States ahve said, there has to be a line drawn somewhere when it comes to speaking your mind. Every group has there own area where they dont want you to go. As you have seen, public opinon has ranked higher than the constitution

You have to think about the risk of telling like it is. You may have to give up, or pay a price that might hurt others that you care about.

By no means do I cross certain lines. I recently moved to Colorado and was surprised by the number of people who stereotype all southerners as being racist. I am polite and nice to everyone. But that still doesn't stop Me from saying what is on My mind. Lord knows I've bitten My tongue a million times but still manage to find a way to say what I think. :smile:

AND HAPPY NEW YEARS to everyone.

Like I said, I never try to be rude. It's never my intention to hurt anyone. Sometimes however, the truth needs to be said. Reality smacks everyone in the face from time to time, including me, I've had my fair dose.
