It's actually one of the reasons I chose to leave the US, Useless. That movement has been groiwn steadily for years. I remember one Christmas season at Lucent, where we were told we could not use certain colors (they might offend), we could not have any angels as decorations, nor coule we even have a group tree. The list was totally ridiculous. We wanted to incorporate something from each of our cultures but was told no - someone would get offended. My gosh.. we might have learned something about Hannukah or Kwanza!! We just might.. have enjoyed it!! Since when did it become bad to be different? Or have a different viewpoint? I don't have to agree with you to respect you but I guess these days, I am no longer allowed to do that.

People do make mistakes, and hopefully they grow from them. Liam Neeson is extremely brave for saying anything, and has my respect as someone who made a mistake and grew from it.
