Daniel this is but one example. You can make a perfectly innocent statement and be called on the carpet for it if one group or another with oversensitivity dislikes it. It is stupid. |

Keep up, Daniel. The question was asked 'why are these types of statements coming out now'. I suggested it may be a result of repression by political correctness. And yes, there is some reason to believe his statement was just an attempt at humor. |

No, you were not following it at all. The discussion had widened from Imus alone to any number of incidents. |
