It comes to something, dunnit, when simple good manners, consideration for others and trying to see the other person's point of view get rebranded from trying to be a reasonably decent human being to "PC gone mad" and cause for those who espouse such matters to "burn in hell" ...

Seems to me there's a lot of very selfish people out there, who go around castigating anything they don't like the sound of as "PC" as a handy cover for doing and saying what the hell they want and sod the consequences. I guess it's the end result of thirty years of Thatcherism in all its various forms and the ascendency "no such thing as society" me-me-me crew.

I think it's a shame that some people think the right to offend is a basic human right. Whatever happened to compromise, rubbing along and trying to make the best of things?

Seems to me that the school and the Morris Side were more adult about this than some of the people on this thread.
