Political Correctness Gone Mad

They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."
How has PC affected you? (Please add your own tales - not five-year-old news stories cut-and-pasted from other websites)

Wow.
It's quite amazing how much ignorance can be crammed into one post.
You're assuming that - amongst other things -
a) All muslim are terrorists
b) Lesbians don't have kids.
One of my climbing buddies is Muslim: It's interesting to hear her set off on a rant about the terrorists who have "NO idea what being a muslim is about".
Twat.
EDIT: You didn't need "PC" to know that this was offensive and not funnny... you just need an IQ larger than your own shoe-size.
