(In response to j0nz’s comment to my earlier post):

It seems to me that we should stop all this nonsense (like New Zealand). It’s not as if we’re telling people that they cannot wear a skirt as many Islamic countries tell their tourists (not that I’d want to!) We should be free in all senses of the word, not just in doing what the PC lobby thinks the so-called ethnic minorities want.

None of the ‘ethnic minorities’ I know see any benefit in annoying people and find no offense in calling lights dangled on trees during December “Christmas lights”….

The problem is with do-gooders who think they know what offends.

I was out one evening while I was at university with a group which included two people who, I noticed afterwards, were not white (I didn’t notice before because it makes no odds). At some point discussion came to the point where one girl (white do-gooder) claimed that one or two things were offensive to ‘ethnic minorities’ and she didn’t back down even when the two who fitted the apparently offended demographic shouted at her that there was no offense… She went on to say that she found it offensive even if they didn’t… I ask you.
