Politically Incorrect?

Ok, so I've been told repeatedly that I am Politically Incorrect. To this I will say
THANK YOU!
I do not have a problem with anyone of another, race, creed, height, religion, orientation or even mental condition. Until we stop treating each other as inferior and using such things as "political correctness" we will never see the value each has to offer.
I make random comments, jokes and statements regarding different groups, but never to be taken in a mean or harmful way.

So lets see who we can offend today!

One who knows me will know I frequently use the word 'tard. This is not meant as a reference to those actually being mentally handicapped. It is not meant to be hurtful towards that group in any way. In my opinion the mentally handicapped population are not to be pittied in any way. For the majority, I believe they are the luckiest people on earth. To see the world with such innocence and child like wonder is something the rest of us can only pray for.
So if you have a problem, with my use of the word 'tard or retarded, then I suggest you not give me a reason to say it to you!

I believe Political Correctness is a way to walk on eggshells and make one group feel more inferior than another. Its a way of stating one group cannot handle who they are, so lets treat them like they should be ashamed.

If you are not ashamed of who you are, you cannot be offended when someone makes a statement to that fact.
I have been called various things throughout my life. Some of them were correct.
I am not ashamed of who I am. I don't believe that anyone else should be ashamed of who they are either.
I know who I am, what I've done, where I've been and where I'm going.
I am a "predominantly" white woman, of less than average height. The typical slur for someone like myself is to be called a cracker.
I AM OK WITH THAT. Just keep in mind, that I am a Ritz Bitz, not to be confused with other crackers who may be HiHo's.

We should not be upset about our differences. We should celebrate them. I do not want to live in a monotonous world. I want to see colors, I want to see religions, I want to see people with everything on their heads from tiaras to towels. Everybody has a place and a reason in this world. Whether it is the ability to reach things off the top shelf, or not having to bend over to get in the cabinet. Whether its a gay man, who can decorate my living room or an Indian who can provide tech support.
Like I have previously stated, I am an equal opportunity bigot.

For someone to want us to all be the same, is well retarded!
