I remember people compiling about the characters Ronnie Barker portrayed. Even Fletch in Porridge. There is a video John Cleese made, basically saying comedy should be offensive. It makes you think. Thanks to the PC TV police, we get crap like Big Brother. I dont really agree with the comic messiah when he says comedy should be offensive, i believe it should touch a nerve, believe the subject matter should contenious Lets face it Monty Python were never "offensive" even with the Life of Brian, offense was in the eye of the beholder, if they had called it the life of Jesus, then one could understand how some people would be offended, however they called it the Life of Brian, and lest not forget "Jesus" even appears in the movie ie the "blessed are the cheese makers" temple mount scene thereby proving the movie wasnt a movie mocking Jesus or Brian a parody of Jesus

Some people are stupid enough to think that a television show or a movie that is not offensive has been bridled by this monster they call PC.
Bullshit ! Did it ever occur to you that not everyone wants to hear people insulting and offending other races or religions ? These morons live in a world of their own, badly affected by their evil propaganda machine. Brought up by people that taught them this shit from a young age.

That last sentence reminds me of the mindset of a lot of sections of society (locally bred and imported) here regarding the way that the xenophobic self importance is drummed into them regarding their national and international status, power, religion etc along with ''the we know best mantra'' along with the blind obedience to the ''better classes'' here. All thrust either up them or upon them by the better class people that taught them that shit from a young age. Now is that political correctness? Of course we need to understand that such matters do not apply solely to this society and its peoples here either, it's a world wide practice

You ladies love a good old fashioned cranky whine dontcha? I don't know who is worse, the wowsers who complain about crap like female politicians flashing a bit of leg on a newspaper page, or the whining right wingers who love to pounce on these stories and complain about the "PC" brigade. Here's one for the right whingers wingers to have a moan about. Surely there is a PC loony somewhere in this story to have a moan about - Sonia Bryce has been jailed for repeatedly playing Ed Sheeran songs at full volume late at nightReminds me of the time my neighbor came over and was banging on my front door at 2.30am. 2.30am can you believe?! Luckily I was still up playing the bagpipes...
