When my son was 4 he came home singing, "Baa baa rainbow sheep, " from school. True! We are not allowed to call a blackboard a blackboard any more. Does anyone actually believe that anyone really "felt offended" by hearing Baa baa black sheep or to look at the blackboard? What a load of PC twaddle!! Whenever you hear someone say, "You can't say this or that." it normally says far more about the person saying it......
The problem is not caused by ethnic minorities complaining but by "pale" people who "believe" that it might cause offence, showing how their ignorance is only eclipsed by their arrogance and how miss-informed they actually are.
No one has complained about the language in Fawlty Towers ever before, what is the point in cutting it now, 35 odd years later?
Now with the BBC slashing anything and everything that "might" cause offence to someone, somewhere and the BBFC bringing in it's new policy on sex and violence, (Demanded by the British public - All 35 of them, including the one who fell asleep and the few who had to be shown they were wrong!) expect more censorship and PC apologists whinging!
