Dear Mary:

My problem with PC is simple, it usually takes the form of censorship, plain and simple. Censorship of that kind should not be tolerated. PC does not want the truth to be told. The only way to fix problems is to put them up to light, not to bury them in some veneer. Many of those that profess PC would not like their views or underlying goals to be put out in the open. Besides, PC is amorphous and as such, changes depending on which group promulgates it.

Take the recent event, the bombing of the WTC. It is PC for those groups that like the event. I strong disagree with the methods and the results of that form of PC. Do you? Then why promulgate PC? Each form of PC is different. Why is any one better than another? Strip away the polite veneer of PC and call the underlying philosophy by what it really is. Then people can argue the merits and demerits of it. You may not like the forms it takes and most others would not, if called by a more descriptive name.

Pete
