Is Political Correctness destroying us?
MY COMMENT...
In the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Salena Zito warns us to wake up:
"The political correctness of not saying or doing anything when slandered, or while watching extremists organize violent reactions, has enveloped London's culture. Even London police allowed two men at last year's cartoon protest, dressed in lifelike suicide-bomber gear, to go unchallenged, for fear of offending the Muslim community.
If this attitude is happening in London, will it head soon to America's shores?
'It is already here,' said Beck. 'We won't say evil is evil anymore. We condone and tolerate and stomach and in many ways celebrate what, a generation ago, we would have said was evil.'
'Things are not good in the cities,' said Joe Mulvaney, a Welshman visiting in London with his wife. 'Our culture has been hijacked, imams are preaching hate and death in the streets, and what do we do? Nothing.'
Yet it is no different now from how it was on the eve of World War II, Mulvaney added. 'I should know -- I was right here.'"
