"Political Correctness"

Okay, I looked up the meaning of this "politically correct" thing. I found several definitions, but kind of liked this one the best:
A trend that wants to make everything fair, equal and just to all by suppressing thought, speech, and practice in order to achieve that goal.
Kind of scary when you really think about it. I'm okay with not wanting to offend any one person, group, religion, political party, etc. But suppressing thought, speech and practices, NO WAY! This is America, and we have freedom of speech! Forget Political Correctness! Be kind and thoughtful, but never be afraid to express your views, thoughts and beliefs. Be true to yourself, exercise your rights, and never compromise who you are!
