    There are loads, Referring to black, sorry coloured people starting with N ending with R. Gay people. starting with Q, also ending with R. Mods will freak and close this probably, Maybe ban me for even raising the subject. But my whole gripe is with PC. I think its gone way over the top.You cannot say a word now but the self appointed politically correct police are down on you like a ton of bricks..Just my tuppence worth!!

    Of course you can still say them. Just, the consequences may not be too favourable.

    edit: and I was opening the thread thinking "I wonder what words he's talking about"... but "ni***r"??? ffs!

    Well the first is an awful example of excessive political correctness.

    The stupidity of the topic deserves a ban, but not for roundabout mentioning politically incorrect b*****k terms.

    How about a pictorial description?

    I could describe this picture vividly to the OP as the IMG tags aren't working for me - but there are reasons we don't call people those names :)

    Possibly as I've reported the thread - but I'm enjoying the reactions so far. Entertaining.

    With any luck, yes.

    Is this guy actuallt complaining because he doesn't get to call black people n*ggers?!? Oh dear.

    Once I hear "PC gone mad" from someone I'm already assuming that I'm dealing with a total idiot. They may change my mind of course - I'll hear them out. The OP has failed to change my first impression.

    Is there a point to this thread?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    If you want to be politically incorrect, do so. It'd be no fun if you didn't provoke someone.

    Yeah, me too. The nativity thing, the "ho ho ho" thing - THEY are examples of PC gone mad.
    And "coloured" is the term black people say they object to, not "black". Their reasoning being, why aren't white people referred to as "coloured"? White is a colour.
