If I had walked by, I had been thinking-Here lives some that loves the country or the english football team.

So, is it offensive to fly those flags in the Navy ?
After all someone could feel offended.
(And i thought this was the wanted effect :O: )

Current political correctness at it's worst :nope:

I hope the whole street paints their doors.

^ What he said !

Thats fine, unless they have signed an agreement with the property owner saying they can't.

Wow, and I thought my country goes havoc regarding this terrible invention called "political correctness"...

why now, after 10 years??

thats the big mystery if you ask me

:o in England Right, The Patriot Saint of England Flag is offensive :haha:

so it has taken 10 years for them to realise his door is a flag so much
for maintenance on the properties by the landlord then:timeout:

You are entering a Daily Mail Zone of Outrage.

Check reason and sanity at the door.

Precisely :03:

I my HOA, a resident needed to get permission from the HOA before painting their front door. One of the more annoying aspects of HOAs.

I will never buy a home with an HOA again. :/\\!!

"Political correctness" seems to become a world wide spread disease. In essence, it is forcing people to give up their individuality and freedom of expression, even if it is a positive and uplifting statement, as this one seems to be.
Sad world we live in nowadays. We must not be proud of our flag, we must not believe in a higher and positive spirituality (whatever the form or the name), we must not have an opinion, and definitelly not make a stand for what we believe in, however right it is. We are being turned into drones.

^ :yep:

PC at its worst. Authoritarian bureaucracy state at its best. The fat cat and the righteous bourgeoise moralist have one thing in common. They both want to get asked, they both want you to kneel for their permission. That's what makes their day, that's the source of their power.

You're painting a misleading and ridiculous picture.

On the barest grounds, political correctness means being mindful of the words we use so as not to cause needless offence.

Obviously you can pick out extreme cases of people being stupid and call the whole endeavor ridiculous. That's fair enough.

But when you say that "we can't believe in a higher spirituality" you're talking absolute rubbish. Same goes for the rest of the world you describe.

Ugh. This is a landlords decision (that they have since apologised for), not the actions of authoritarian state power .

don't let me stop you intentionally misunderstanding the issue though .

I can tell you are story like this and it's from Denmark

It occurs some month ago

A leader from the danish police acadamy demanded that the danish flag was removed from the acadamy 'cause it could offend some of the students that wasn't danish

Thank god, the story came to danish press and about 90 % of politician from the danish parlament said no way. The flag is stil hanging on the wall in some of the rooms.

Can we all lighten up...everyone should have a right to express themselves as long as they are acting within the boundaries of the law and not intentionally provoking others on the grounds of racism etc.
