Political Correctness Gone MadFreddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. 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)

You want real, realio trulio racism?Long story short, I left the UK because I was finally exhausted by the traffic, the litter, the tax and the space-cadets in Westminster.
Lucky me, I landed in the enlightened multicultural utopia that is Kuwait...
Forget your low-grade smouldering European racism; this is high octane, brains boiled by the desert heat god given right to rule the universe craziness.
I give for your delectation the 'Kuwait Crime' section of www.arabtimesonline.com/arabtimes/
This week's favourite, Kuwaiti man given two years probation for beating someone to death with an iron bar (it's a slow news week). I don't think you can view the archives, which is a shame, because I like the regular stories of philipino maids hanging themselves (ideally after breaking the bones of their sponsors' babies), prostitutes 'falling off balconies' (seriously, you get one of these most weeks) and labourers being deported for (gasp) going on strike having not been paid for 5 months (at 100GBP per month).
Oh, and there was the gang rape at knife point where the (asian) woman was left naked in the desert to die. But one of her (Kuwaiti) assailants gave her his mobile number, because she obviously fancied him...
Who needs political correctness when you've got an oil well?
*edit* this just in: "The girl reportedly told the school administration she was tortured for failing to do house chores."

Thers'e something you don't see every day"B'deshi bites citizen in brawl: A Kuwaiti man who was bitten on various parts of his body by a Bangladeshi salesman has been admitted to the Farwaniya Hospital, reports the Awan daily.
According to a security source the incident took place following an argument between the two men."
