Subject: Political Correctness
....
I've changed the subject line to remove the offending phrase, and I'm
interested in other's opinions on Political Correctness, and how it
should be handled on vpFREE.
Why don't we agree to let minor violations slide?
Some people just are not attuned/sensitive to what is politically correct
(PC) & will be stepping into the mire unintentionally.
The interpretation of words is not exact so what could be PC due to your
background may not be considering someone else's background or lack of one.
I'd like to suggest that if the intent of the post was not mean-spirited that
we forget it.
If it occurs again, then we educate.
If it is posted with malicious intent then the poster should be reprimanded.
