political correctness gone crazy **now with pic**

Are you sure that this isn't a tongue-in-cheek joke to add an element of humour to the play? I know that when Rosie has had performances of this type, they have often brought them 'up-to-date' with a bit of chavviness.

Black boards are now chalk boards, and baa baa black sheep, is actually baa baa grey sheep.
Im sorry but why and how would anyone be offended by that?
I think it offends them more by making a big fuss about it and re-naming everything surely!
By the way, a few schools near me are having to do Jungle Book instead of the nativity plays now, as it may offend other religions.
Its really getting out of hand now and its just laughable.

I mean why is a black board called a black board? Cos the board is black in colour....
Why was the nursery rhythm "Baa Baa Black Sheep"? Cos it was about a sheep that was black!
They are doing the Jungle Book instead of nativety plays incase it offends other religion? So what they are saying is they don't give a rats toss about the Christian religion, the most widespread religion in the world, the religion this fucking country is based on, in fear of offending other religions?
W-T-F........

I mean should I be offended cos they now have white boards?
Should I be offended when someone asks for white coffee?
Should I be offended when nativety plays, the story of the basic religious foundation of this country, are cancelled for the fucking JUNGLE book, in case it offends foreign religions?
I mean FFS

Thrush, Exactly, replacing the nativity with other plays is actually a huge kick in the teeth to christianity.
People are that bothered about offending or insulting others, but whats that if its not a massive insult!?!?!?
Forgot about this one too, you know 'The Farmers in his den' nursery rhyme? Well, when it says 'the farmer wants a wife', thats now had to be replaced with 'the farmer wants a partner'........and im serious too!

I can understand the term black being exchanged when whatever it was relates to black people, Baa Baa black sheep has been linked a few times to originally being about black traders, but just doing it for the sake of it when something is just named after the colour and not refering to people in any way is rediculous to the point of madness.
For example if a black board was named so because black people used to be slaves in plantations making boards then fair enough, but its only named after the colour so whats the issue?

Fucking joke
Positive discrimination and political correctness really pisses me off.
Examples....
We have the MOBO awards in this country (Music of Black Origin)
WHere are the MOWO's, there would be an uproar if there were
Radio 1 had the 1 extra channel now promoting "the best in Black music"
Where is the promotion for "the best in white music"
I have never been or will be racist but this country is well on the way to self destruction.

the naughty word in nursery is to stop CONFUSION !!!
kids get confused easy and comment on things wrong and naughty is one word that is easy confusing when relayed back to people, its taken a few different ways so they are taught different words of the same meaning to help understand what they mean
understand WHY some stuff is done,,, then comment before just saying its dumb !
i agree MOBO awards are promote ethnic divides and should be made illigal !!
but,,, tbh the amount of shite the ethnic minoritys get INDIRECT such as judged before you know them with the biggots of society and other racisit ignorant cunts who wont give others a chance or willing to learn/understand them,, it also help to appriciate the minoritys aswell
dont forget Choice FM is OWNED by a white person,,, MOBO awards and other black media ect,, its great for black people ect,,,, but you think a BLACK person is in charge of any of this
CHASE THEM BACK MATE,,, THE PEOPLE GETTING RICH FROM THE "BLACK" STUFF IS RICH WHITE GUYS !!!
you think 50 cent is rich,,,,,,, you wanna speak to the man who pays hes contracts !!!! he aint black,, hes tax man aint black,,,,,, hes paying a white man and hes FEELING rich

What an absolute fookin joke all this idiocy.....
So we can't call black boards black boards anymore, what about white boards? Surely this is singling the white minority out???! I'm offended!!!
In all seriousness who is it that decides these stupid things we can and can't say? Is it the government on the whole as its never really mentioned on the news. Who are these do-gooders??!

It's bonkers the shit you hear these days. A local town to me never put the traditional christmas lights up a few years back and did it in some other form. Now im not racist but this is England our country. When we visit other countriy we obey there laws etc unless you randomley name a teddy bear something random.
My house in Spain asks the foreign residents in the complex to keep the noise down from 3 till 5 for the siesta and we do.
Crazy place here roll on febuary when i move for good.

Totally agree, i'd tell the school to F.O.
Fortunately not had that problem my 4 yr old was Mary in the infants nativity last week. The missus was well made up and proud.

Up here if I say I am black it means that I am dirty. Has nothing to do with the colour of someone elses skin. That's just what you call it up here.

As far as I'm concerned, political correctness can f**k right off.
A spade's a spade.
Black is black.
Dwarves are dwarves.
And political correctness supporters are a waste of space.
C4llyT - My other half used to do silver service and couldn't offer the guests 'white or black' coffee, it had to be 'with or without'
