Yeah, like the other day I was at a burlesque show, and May was dancing around the pole, celebrating a friends birthday, when all of a sudden the cops came in and raided the joint. And I thought to myself, that was PC; Pretty Crummy.

Thumbs down Groundhog day is OUT!

It’s interesting that people criticize some holidays and not others and use the justification that it’s politically incorrect without adding “in my opinion” to their comments. More people then not don’t even understand some of the “original” thoughts behind the some of the holidays.

Civilization has moved out of the “dark ages” and into the period of enlightenment, well for some anyway. I simply have no problem with anything that a person wants to celebrate even if they have a gram cracker holiday, it’s their business not mine. I have a problem with groundhog day however. lol IMHO

Being Politically incorrect shows prejudices, discrimination, intolerance, and narrow-mindedness.

I don't agree with all opinions that are considered politically incorrect. But it's worth saying that political correctness shows a desire to judge and punish others for thinking differently.
