Jokes may make sensitive snowflakes burn in anger. But you're wanting to normalize and even go farther than that, to institutionalize this sensitivity to words. It would make the United States a pathetic society. We won this from the British when we decided that we wouldn't take it anymore. We didn't whine or cry, we got our guns and took the nation rightfully. But the snowflakes won't win. Most of the people here have disagreed with you, and in my humble opinion, sanity and reason has prevailed. |
Not too familiar with our own history are you. We whined for a ton of stuff long before guns got involved. Guess you forgot the night we dressed up as Native Americans and dumped tea into the Boston harbor. |
The Boston Tea Party is a horrible example because it's hardly any sort of weakness of spirit (which is the source or reason of whining in the first place) and doesn't really fit because they risked their lives or prison time if caught.
