temecula pd, eh? i hope you never get me

then that'd be the worst day of my life. I'm a good boy though, seriously. all i do is speed (the act, not the drug).

I think it's funny that this thread went unloved while the other one on spencer, which was started later, ended up locked...

As a white person I hesitate to think that I have a particularly unique perspective on the idiocy of political correctness. On one hand, I think enforcing such ridiculous norms is...well..ridiculous. On the other hand I think that our society as a whole has done a masterful job of showing a level of ignorance and disrespect that almost calls for this level of invasiveness into our language and culture just to get us to act with a modicum of respect towards our peers.

dbjb - Let me see if I have this right... I take umbrage at an inflammatory statement - (you can't deny that it wasn't)

That makes me pc in your eyes? I don't apologize for it.

Please enlighten me - what are the ramifications of someone like me objecting to speech of this nature?

How has *your* country been damaged from your viewpoint?

Call me pc if you like - I still object to what Spencer said. It is ironic that the Toyota truck that will be racing is just as American as every other truck in the series. It's just the name that will be different.

What if he had burned a cross? Where do you draw the line?

Do you share his feelings? If so - be a man about it and come out and say so instead of playing Rush Limbaugh by calling me "pc"

I realize this is a sensitive topic...and justifiably so...but tread this line carefully...
