"After the attack in manhattan he said it and I agree, who else thinks pc have gone to far? " What does not calling people "fag" or "nigger" or "spas" have to do with with a terrorist attack, and why do you want to use those terms? | |||

Oh no, wait a minute, you just did. I don't think anyone really wants to use those terms these days. However telling little girls that it is racist to dress up as Moana or the same to David Walliams for dressing up as Kim Wrong Un is PC gone way too far. | |||

" Personally, I would use all those words, fact is I will use all the words in my vocabulary if and when they are appropriate. The fact that I can't think of a time when such words would be appropriate is to me the important thing, not that I would not use a word because of social pressure. I equate political correctness with with censorship by social pressure. And that is as wrong as the views that are being suppressed. In my opinion. | |||

I am more than capable of insulting anyone I feel deserves insulting, and have done so on many occasions in both private and public. However I am usually able to use more poetically colourful language rather than prosaic gutter talk. | |||

"I think Trump is correct, but not for the same reasons as him. (And here I have to ask Fabio, our female, TV, openly gay and lesbian forum members if my thinking is correct or not.) I believe that political correctness has forced racism, homophobia and misogyny into the closet and underground rather than removing the problem, and I for one would rather such problems be out in the open where they can be seen and addressed. What I do find overwhelmingly saddening about the whole affair is that a month to the day a gunman killed 58 and wounded 546 and the reaction from Trump was to say no gun control but within hours of this tragedy Trump was issuing orders to homeland security and being very proactive about these killings. I am afraid Fabio, that I have reached the conclusion that the land of your birth has a very serious addiction to firearms and is deeply racist. And that your president suffers from both afflictions." I would honestly have asked what has he said this time.....but unfortunately his tweets come up on my timeline.... the problem is that with stuff like this he jumps to conclusions quickly and wants action asap, but when it comes to vegas when people want action asap he says too early to tak to suit his narrative! anyway... were he has cocked up so far on this matter... a) wants extreme vetting.. which is fine, but with all the rules he wants to bring in it would not have stopped this person and its not on the list of banned affected countries... b) likes to blame it on overseas factors, when the NYPD and the FBI both confirmed he was radicalised domestically... c) then wants to blame Schumer for the initial legistlation brought in under bush 20 years ago, when it wasn't him, and then he was part of the "gang of 8" senator who tried to reform immigration that would have ended this program, only to the defeated by republicans.... d) then trump calls for the death penalty!! which means a laywer can perfectly well claim that he has tainted the jury pool and would not get a fair verdict... which means he is now more likely to get life with no parole instead! i just wish he would tweet less and govern more.... but since he has proved to be crap at the govern bit... this is what we have for the next 3 years ish! | |||

The IRA were NOT fighting bombing or killing for Catholicism. Nothing they did was in the name of Catholicism, they didn't shout Jesus is great before setting a bomb off and they didn't use suicide bombing as a means to get to heaven | |||

"Still no specific examples of how being less PC would stop terrorist attacks..." . Well it would help if we actually talked about what the problem was and why it's happening without treading on egg shells because 8% of our population are Muslim!. I don't think it's necessary to offend people who CHOOSE to practise the religion of Islam, however I think we should be able to point out some of the outdated and shit cultural practises that come along with it that really doesn't fit into 21st century European values..... In exactly the same way that were free to critique Catholicism and the Pope, were free to do West end musicals that poke fun at Jerry Springer being Jesus without being called Catholphobes every time we have a criticism of it | |||

"After the attack in manhattan he said it and I agree, who else thinks pc have gone to far? What does not calling people "fag" or "nigger" or "spas" have to do with with a terrorist attack, and why do you want to use those terms? Did the OP use those words? Oh no, wait a minute, you just did. I don't think anyone really wants to use those terms these days. However telling little girls that it is racist to dress up as Moana or the same to David Walliams for dressing up as Kim Wrong Un is PC gone way too far.That is right. I didnt say those words, for example, it is ok for anyone to mention that ira is a terrorist group and what is wrong with them , but mentioning is and islam you have to be political correct or there would be an outcry. It's ok to talk about the IRA, but it's not ok to say they represent all Christians, in exactly the same way that Islamic State don't represent all muslims.. That's simpleton talk. The IRA were NOT fighting bombing or killing for Catholicism. Nothing they did was in the name of Catholicism, they didn't shout Jesus is great before setting a bomb off and they didn't use suicide bombing as a means to get to heaven" Islamic state aren't fighting for Islam either. Want to know who the majority of their victims are? It's not British policemen or Ariana Grande fans, its other Muslims. Islamic state is a political organisation fighting for territory that it can exert it's political control over. No different from other terrorist organisations. | |||

"Still no specific examples of how being less PC would stop terrorist attacks.... Well it would help if we actually talked about what the problem was and why it's happening without treading on egg shells because 8% of our population are Muslim!. I don't think it's necessary to offend people who CHOOSE to practise the religion of Islam, however I think we should be able to point out some of the outdated and shit cultural practises that come along with it that really doesn't fit into 21st century European values..... In exactly the same way that were free to critique Catholicism and the Pope, were free to do West end musicals that poke fun at Jerry Springer being Jesus without being called Catholphobes every time we have a criticism of it But you are completely free to point out the specific aspects of Islam which are problematic. Who is stopping you? . Muslims, they keep actually killing or threatening to kill or worse still.... Claim there offended every time anybody says anything about Islam and especially Mohammed, whow betide anybody that thinks they can draw cartoons about that little rascal " To be fair a quite a few Christians got a bit annoyed when Monty Python did The Life of Brian. Could you imagine what would happen today if they did a remake set in 7th century Mecca? | |||

Firstly all Muslims are NOT evil. Thought I'd get that out of the way first, although the history doesn't quite back up the notion that it is a religion of peace either. What Islam does have is a huge problem within its own ranks that really needs addressing from within. How they can do that? I don't really know but the usual finger pointing blaming the Americans, the Jews, the West in General will never be the answer. Neither will western politicians and journalists, walking on eggshells and so carefully choosing their words (Islamic/Islamist Etc) so as not to offend or upset anyone, provide an answer.

"? Hard truths like "your religion has a problem" Sort it, or at least try to. Something you very rarely, if ever, hear from anyone in mainstream politics." Right. So we've gone past two examples of PC being a problem that aren't really actual examples, and we're back to blaming all Muslims for the extremism of a minority. This idea that if we're only harder on Muslims it will somehow automatically make things better is so simplistic. Moderate Muslims *are* trying to "sort" the problem. There are Muslim anti-terror groups. They just don't get any publicity because it doesn't fit what people are interested in. Last month there was another march, which again didn't get much coverage, obviously: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/muslims-march-london-protest-isis-terrorism-ashura-islam-peaceful-demonstrators-a7980476.html | |||

Sure you've not actually hacked people's heads off but you don't really think bad of people who do it for the "cause". The media used to use the word fundamentalist but they quietly dropped that for "extremists" or "radicalism". Pc culture means there now only good at tackling the symptoms like the EDL or neo Nazis, hate crime, we'll probably continue trying to tackle the symptoms because nobody wants to tackle the disease Another post with no specifics. What do you want to happen? Islam to be banned in the UK? All Muslims deported? . Not banned, turned into a wishy-washy load of shit that nobody takes seriously....a bit like the CofE . Your problem is your mistaken about extremism and only think it's about terrorism, if you find yourself having to go to the mosque church or synagogue five times a day, if you think the crackers your eating will turn into the body of Christ or the cow is the goddess of the earth, if you think you really need to throw a sheet over your wife or refuse to eat pigs coz there filthy, if you think the 7th century warlord murderer and child marrier is the perfect human created..... Your taking it to seriously. They need adverts on the mosques, when the fun stops, stop My problem actually is, apparently, expecting anti-PC people to have anything of substance to say, any actual specific suggestions on how being less PC will reduce terrorism. . Start with mandatory signs on the mosque door, if you've got more than six sheets in your house your taking this pastime to seriously, try crown green bowling instead" Signs dont stop stupid people.Ever put up a wet paint sign its like cat nip for the inquisitive. | |||

"Don't get me wrong I've never been killed by a Nazi either but I'm still against Nazism , I'm sure there was some good Nazis who committed no crimes and generally went about their day but I wouldn't feel bad about offending them by saying Nazism is a pretty shit ideology So no ways to combat terrorism, other than you want to be able to say that all Muslims are evil? . Obviously ALL Muslims aren't evil, just some of them. However they are ALL following a medieval, evil ideology which is where the main elements of the killing comes from like beheading and setting on fire and suchlike...I mean who beheads these days Don't American Christians kill humans they think are bad ? . Your hate of America shines through like an Isis member, personally I think your a nice guy living with a shit ideology based on bullshit.... No different than any other religious idiot" Apart from it does not ? I'm no fan of any human who randomly kills another for almost any cause I generally defend all humans from a judgmental mindset thus to suggest I whole scale hate any large group based upon something as meaningless as location me birth , skin colour , accent , hair colour or indeed religion is wrong and defamatory I await your sincere apology for projecting a falsehood x I do not like any group who promote hate or superiority between other humans and I disagree with philosophies , ideologies or parts of religions which promote , homophobia sexism or conflict Tsk | |||

Like it or not some hard truths need to be told and political correctness is the sworn enemy of that truth. Hard truths like what? Why is it so hard for people to speak specifically? Hard truths like "your religion has a problem" Sort it, or at least try to. Something you very rarely, if ever, hear from anyone in mainstream politics. Did we say that to Catholics during the IRA? . I must have missed that bit where Mick ran in shouting Jesus is great before blowing himself up in a desperate attempt to get to heaven because his life's been a Catholic failure How many protestants were members of the IRA? How many Hindus, or Jews, or Muslims were in the IRA? No one with more than 2 brain cells denies there was a religious element to 'the troubles'" . There was plenty of protestants who wanted independence and plenty of Catholics who didn't, that's still the case | |||

" How many protestants were members of the IRA? How many Hindus, or Jews, or Muslims were in the IRA? No one with more than 2 brain cells denies there was a religious element to 'the troubles'" In answer to your first question, there was a few. Hindus, Jews and Muslims were rare as hens teeth in Northern Ireland. Religion was an excuse not a cause. I would have see more as an ethno-nationalist issue But to address the original proposal. The US constitution has proven to be sufficient so far. This is just political opportunism on the part of Mr Trump. Anybody remember the Birmingham 6 or the Guildford 4? | |||

No it's for the betterment of the individual who acts how they think their religion wants them to and basically There's alot of stuff in the Quran and hadiths that would make them think that way!. | |||

" People are very good at justifying their thoughts and actions to themselves...we're benevolent and malevolent. There's no cure for humanity. The disease keeps the politics forum filled with new threads on ideas as old as our existence and new people suffer for these old ideas. We're doomed. At least we have swinging! | |||
