Ranting on Political Correctness

What are we doing in America, why is everyone so politically correct? What is the point and purpose of all of this? From racial issues of what is appropriate to gender issues and religious issues. We have to be so careful about everything that we say now in hopes that we do not offend anyone, but what about all of those people who seem to be offended all of the time, and what happened to our right to free speech. Political correctness happened! We are all so consumed with this idea of trying not to hurt anyone, and trying to include everyone of every race and every ethnicity into everything that we have forgotten that LIFE DOES NOT EQUAL FAIRNESS TO ALL! So we are trying to create equality in a world full of inequality.
