WestVirginiaRebel Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Breitbart: Political correctness is one of the biggest arguments in favor of–and against–the presidential candidacy of Donald Trump. How do Americans feel about it? A new Rasmussen poll shows a clear majority opposed. From Rasmussen Reports: Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump during the first pre-primary debate reiterated a point he’s made throughout his campaign that “the big problem this country has is being politically correct.” Most Americans strongly agree with that sentiment. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 71% of American Adults think political correctness is a problem in America today, while only 18% disagree. Ten percent (10%) are undecided. ________ PC runs its course, at least as far as public opinion is concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me there are 2 groups of people who are concerned about this. One group (the perpetually offended) use this to keep people separated into different groups, so they can use it to get/keep political power, and to give meaning to their lives (I recommend they get a life/laid) The other group goes out of there way to aggravate the perpetually offended. And more often than not for the same reasons (the same recommendation applies). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
