Political correctness run amok!

[Zombie]

PC has to be eliminated!! Why is it even happening anyway? A few thing that are PC that I have noticed lately are...
1- The 3 Musketeers. One white, one black, one hispanic. Now, I dont know how many blacks and hispanics were in 14th century France, but I can pretty much garuntee that they were never musketeers. (If you can document and black or hispanic musketeers, you will win a prize!)

2- The Pillsbury doughboy. He has been darkened. Look at an old picture and look at a new one. I have learned that this has happened because some groups have sais that the Pillsbury Doughboy was "Too white". WTF?!?!

3- Comics. Will someone tell me, when and at what point, did the Green Lantern become a large black man? Spawn was originally writtenas a black charactor, but not the Green Lantern.Will Spawn change now?

Thse are just a few examples. Point out as many as you can find in everyday life.

I can completely guarentee that there wasn't any black or hispanic Musketeers in 14th century France. This is most likely because the musket wasn't invented until the 15th century.

Guarentee and most likely? x^2 and x^3 don't add up.

Hal Jordan retired from being Green Lantern in the mid-70s. There have been a few since then.

Maybe, they were trying to represent the candy bar.
Chocolate-Black
Carmel-Hispanic
Nuget(sp?)-white
Together, they are one sweet fighting force.
The three musketeers was written by a black guy.

You forget about the Crisis on Infinite Earths and how they started over. Hal Jordan went berserk shortly after the Death Of Superman saga. During the Reign of the Supermen comic lines, where you had Steel, The Eradicator, The Cyborg and Superboy, Mongul or Darkseid, I believe it was Darkseid, but I have a track record of mixing these two up, anyway, Earth was supposed to be turned into another War World and Hal Jordan's hometown was the first target. Every living thing, people and all, were killed as the first of the engines went into place. After the defeat of the bad guy, Hal Jordan stayed as Green Lantern for a bit, but he eventually lost his mind, he went completely nutso. He stole all the rings of the Green Lantern's, even the elders, and he killed them, I believe. He tried to resurrect Coast City. (I think that's the name, I'm sorry if it's not, I'm doing this all from memory) He was eventually stopped and all the rings went to new people. There was another white Green Lantern, but I believe he was killed in action and that lead to the new Green Lantern, who is black. That happened, I think, around two or so years ago. That's why Green Lantern is now black. *whew*

Anyway, to stay on topic.....

1) Retard - this term is seen as derogatory unless used in a medical sense, to be PC, you must refer to them as Mentally Handicapped.

2) Janitor - Sadly enough, a term like this can be seen as derogatory (no shit) and hence anyone with this former title is now known as a Sanitary Engineer. I don't know what the hell they are Engineering, but yeah, don't say Janitor......

3) M & M's - Believe it or not, PC has hit M & M's. Happened a while back and no one said a thing....remember when it was just Red and Yellow? Both were viewed as being male, though they have no genitalia, so when Peanut Butter M & M's were introduced, the mascot of them was Green. Green has female looking eyelashes, still no genitalia, but Green is female. Aw, togetherness.

4) Westerns - Wild, Wild West. Will Smith took the leading role. The movie was a modeled after a show where the character played by Will Smith was a white man. I don't believe this should've changed simply to draw in a crowd.

Also, I believe politicall correctness is indirectly responsible for the September 11 2001 attacks. First, we didnt use racial or ethnic profiling on people who came from radical Islamic countries, The Clinton administration didnt shut down the Holyland Foundation, a group that has been exposed to channel funding to terrorists (and is now shut down). It wanst shut down because the Clinton administration said "We didnt want to look like Muslim bashers." Nonsense. There are a thousand little PC things I dont presently have time to today to rant about, but rest assured, Ill get around to them sooner or later.
Fight Political Correctness wherever you see it !

For your info terrorism is not just an Islamic monopoly. Money was provided for too long from Irish Americans to fund the terrorist practices of the IRA - a group which thinks little of killing children in its cause. I guess our "special relationship" only extended to fighting terrorist causes on American soil.

Have you heard the PC bull about people being upset about snow-men being called snow-men and they wanted the name changed to snow-person?

Yes I realise that terrorism isnt just all Islamic radicals, and the threat of terrorism spans all classes of race, ethnicity, age and idealology. My post was used simply as an example of how, in The Age of the Wimp, concen for how people feel got in the way of doing what was needed to protect innocent people. These people are more concerned about how people feel, not wanting anyone to be offended, then doing is neccesary to defend the general population. The indoctrination of schoolkids into liberalism, revisionist history, and political correctness has, and continues to, ruin society's backbone. These people "feel" insted of "think", when thinking is what is needed!

I have a question for anyone out there still going to school. Look in your history books for a chaper on the United States Constitution. See if the Second Amendment is there. See if its says, anywhere, after Life, Liberty, and The pursuit of Happiness, it says "Except for Slaves, which are property and therefore have no intrinsic rights." If you read the genuine article, you will see these. They were also in MY textbooks, way back in 1989. I have doubts about them being present now. Its Revisionist History and Politicall Correctness, trying again, to have no one being offended instead of what is the actual history. The way things are going, soon the world will be overrun by (and I coin a new term here-) "Mind Virgins". People who are so indoctrinated into PC, RH and liberalism, that a single independent thought of actual fact will not pass through their minds. People who question nothing. I have the unfortuneate displeasure of working with some of these mindless puppets everyday. They know absolutely NOTHING of real history that occoured only a few years ago!! There is also a colledge-educated girl who doesnt even know who the Governer or State Representitives were!! This simply sickens me to no end. now, I dont mean to sound like I have a masters, or even a doctorate, but if you are a colledge graduate and you dont even know who someone who is in the news almost everyday that works in government is, what the hell did you actually DO for the last 4 years??? Ive got to sign off for now. This is starting to sicken me further (if such a thing is possible).
