It's probably silly to think this, but hey....it is possible that this silliness over a duck hunter and an obscure magazine will do SOMETHING to eradicate this silly Political Correctness (which means NEVER saying anything that offends fringe groups) in this country.
For many years, on other sites, I have predicted (NOT "advocated", heavens NO) that this country will eventually have to split, physically. We can't continue as is. There is no longer any compromise on any issue. If I say "BLUE" really loud, the 'other side' yells "HE IS A RACIST/EVIL/HOMOPHOBE/MEAN". They say the same thing if I yell "PICKLE" or "TOOTHPICK". They don't care.
Truth is, "my" side doesn't either. They label every word out of a Liberal's mouth as trash. Truth is, they have some good ideas, but we never listen to any of them because some of them are SO stupid!!
So we are divided. Permanently. Divided among each other. Divided among our elected officials. Divided on every subject. Meanwhile, our system and culture is eroding and crumbling.
So it can't continue. That's my prediction. Bloodless, I'm betting. But inevitable. Now back to your regularly scheduled thread!!
Anyway, this episode just might force some of the idiocy of PC thought out into the open and cause folks to have to accept folks like Phil. They demand acceptance (which they mislabel as "Tolerance", but they really want full Acceptance), but won't accept Phil.
Or me.
So, we'll see.
