"PC dominates the schools"

Not half!!! in our school if anything happens the teachers are scared to tell the asian kids off. I have a friend that had a fight with an asian lad last year, the other lad approached him from behind and hit him in full view of everyone asked to speak to the head teacher. But still my mate was excluded for a week, told to come back in and see if they change it to permenant (he'd never stepped out of line before but they said it was a racist attack, B*ll*cks they just didnt like each other- talk about jumping to conclusions), he also had to attend anger management sessions.
Whilst the other kid got off scott free, because in the teachers mind it goes "if i tell him off i would be seen as racist"

 

Excellent.

But zero cnance of getting the message through to those responsible.

By the way they weren't Asian riots, they were Pakistani riots and there's plenty more where that came from.

 

And your answer is what?

It's all a fallacy.

The term "Political Correctness" is one used by the media to portray a negative image of what should actually be a positive thing.
The true nature of "Political Correctness" is one which promotes equality, understanding and tolerence but the media latch onto only things that are way off the mark and then claim that these are "Political Correctness", the good aspects of "Political Correctness" are not even recognised as being part of it.

Get rid of the &quot;trendy wendys&quot; littering up our Town Halls. That would be a decent start.</p>

Send them to retrain on a gruelling &quot;sense and sensibility&quot; programme or sack the lot and start again.</p>

The main problem is not always the people and groups affected. It's largely our own 60s and 70s educated eternal do-good meddlers who have lost the plot.</p>

It's ironic.

You're spending too long in the States mate.

 

RE: It's ironic.

Is that why it was originally hijacked as a term by the Americans?

Or are you going for the other fallacy that "Americans don't get irony"?

 

RE: It's ironic.

"Originally hijacked"

Heh heh.

 

No answers then ?

Just as Leicester has fallen we will!! Just like the Alamo, we stand alone! </p>

That should get the bees buzzin!</p>

 

It's not worth the worry Windy.

Don't give it another thought.

 

No answers then?

 

Fack orf!

(Or in't that &quot;PC?&quot; )

 

Eh?

Talking out of your arse!

Dodworth Road to be overrun?! Turning one building into a prayer meeting place I believe

Houses that can't sell except to you know who?! Because the bigots won't buy from the bigots who are selling up cause they believe the right wing bile spewed out.
Think I might take advantage and get myself a cheaper house - or perhaps they can't sell because they are asking too much for a house that fronts right onto such a busy road!

 

RE: Eh?

Yeah spot on not, go on bury your head in the sand.

Amos are u a do gooder? or just a fool?
