| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00  | We all know about how this world has become a politically correct mess. Almost every week an article comes out showing how we've just become more and more pussified as people. I figure this thread could be used as sort of a place to show such patheticness. This story comes from protestors against the new Arnold Schwarzengger movie, Colatteral Damage. Colombian activists Sunday said an action movie that was delayed after the Sept. 11 attacks is insulting to Colombians and firefighters. ``Collateral Damage'' stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as a firefighter whose wife and son are killed when a Colombian rebel leader sets off a bomb in Los Angeles. Schwarzenegger travels to Colombia to seek vengeance against the bomber. At a news conference Sunday, the film was criticized by the Rev. Brian Jordan, a Franciscan priest who ministers to workers at Ground Zero. ``It is discriminatory against Colombians,'' said Jordan. Jordan also said making the main character a firefighter who becomes a vigilante is an insult to the firefighters who became heroes after the terrorist attacks. Many of the protesters Sunday said they feared the movie will cement stereotypes that Colombians are drug traffickers and guerillas, rather than hardworking, educated people. This isn't the full article just some paragraphs from it.  "It appears my wee wee has been strucken with rigor mortis." I've purchased illegal substances once- i guess i caused the death of a baby- i wish i could have killed that fucker with my own hands This message was edited by IkeaBoy on 2-4-02 @ 2:52 AM | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | when is the term "political correctness" going to be scrapped? jesus, its usually just a bunch of uptight assholes who make a big deal over nothing. i believe colombians are educated, but that doesnt mean they arent also traffickers. shit, over 98% of Cubans have a high-school diploma and their physicians are renowned around the world, yet Castro is still in power, something doesnt add up... | ||||

Ever try to smuggle a ton of cocaine accross the Mexican border? I haven't but I imagine it takes a lot of hard work. Ever try to attack a military base like some of these geurilla groups do? You got to have some kind of education to pull that off.  Nobody fucks with Dice, Dice does the fuckin! | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | DIG actually makes a good point. people like to say that criminals are "stupid" but in all honesty, criminals (successful criminals) are probably some of the smartest people around. Let me quote Dr. No "The successful criminal brain is always superior. It has to be." now sure, 007 is probably not the best place to go to prove your arguement but all i'm saying is that criminals--successful major criminals--aren't given enough credit in their ability to organize and outwit.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Sep. 00 | The only way we can scrap Political corectness is if we restore the way the playing was. We need to kill off the weak so it will end the pussifying of the world. PC is letting the weak run rampant and weaken the strong.  As far as I'm concerned, humans have not yet come up with a belief that's worth believing. ~George Carlin, Napalm and Silly Putty [Email]Filzy_metz@hotmail.com[/Email] | ||||

| Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 02 | If it wasnt for criminals, we wouldnt need police and laws-which would place millions of law enforcement officials, as well as politicians- out of work, collapsing the economy, destroying the social structure, and utlimately giving the animals back the right to roam the earth, like in 12 Monkeys when Bruce Willis went to "the surface". Keep it Pablos of the world!!! | ||||

| Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | quote: I agree stick those kikes back in the oven and put the jigs back out in the fields.... it's a joke but to most PC people that would make me an idiot and racist Political Correctness is nothing more than a crutch and a platform for "Mustache Pete's" to keep their grubby old hands on the puppet strings. It is a sad replacement for common sense and good manners. It is a social convention by which people are excused from using their own brains, and limited in their self-expression. I could go off on the downfall of society and mind control agruments but we all heard them before. What I want to instill in you, is the possibility that you can, perhaps, make your own decisions regarding your speech and actions. That, possibly, just maybe, you can grab the reins of the social conscience horse and refer to someone or some group without the fear of recrimination from the peanut gallery. I make fun of jews and blacks but hey I know right from wrong. I know the point where it's a joke and when it's hate speaking. Like I said a million times aids is scary to me, pedophelia is disgusting to me but hey to each their own when it comes to humor. I say enough of these whiney slits and fags who bitch cause they don't get called homosexuals. Like Archie Bunker said "when did everyone become a race? When did americans become 'african-americans' or 'spanish-amercians'? We are all just americans, if you're a spic or a kike then that is your business." Stop fuckin crying and learn to take it for the joke it is. I understand that the sword is double edged and you don't want it to become overly acceptable to the point where you can just walk up to a black guy and call him a nigger in the streets. But that's where common sense comes in which is another facet of our society which has unfortunatly also become just another thing of the past. Don't limit yourself to 'safe' PC terms. Treat people with respect. Exercise some judgement, make some mistakes and offend some people. Apologize, explain yourself but don't excuse yourself.  I'm Deep Inside Your Children. They Will Betray You In MY Name. | ||||
