Political Correctness Gone Too Far! or Not Far Enough?

Political Correctness defines a war between Free Speech and Hate Speech Political Correctness: The avoidance, often considered as taken to extremes, of forms of expression or action that are perceived to exclude, marginalize, or insult groups of people who are socially disadvantaged or discriminated against. Where there is freedom and power there should also be empathy, respect, responsibility, understanding and discipline because freedom and power without empathy, respect, responsibility, understanding and discipline is nothing but hate filled dog eat dog, lord of the files anarchy. Subjugation of the many by the few. Society must create rules that allows it to coexist peacefully towards a common goal or else society will turn on itself, cannibalize itself and implode. My granny use to say, if you do not have anything good to say then better not say anything, sometimes that is the best course of action.

Religious beliefs varies depended on the religion, the person and on their own interpretations. For a person like me it gets a bit claustrophobic, as they invade my mental space. I would like to think I am a person who respect other people and that I am open and objective. We will all never agree on everything but that is OK, we do not have agree on anything except to be humane, respectful and polite.
