I like to go by that saying 'Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me'. I don't do whatever I desire, only say. People who are offeneded by words are silly and need to take themselfs less seriously. |
Yes, it is an excuse. I could not care less whether people should be offended or not, I simply care about other people. It is undeniable that people are offended by words. Saying things that will knowingly offend people is not tolerant simply because you believe people should not be offended by words. It is the antithesis of tolerance.
