Should someone be reported for asking politcally incorrect questions?

Question

Ok, some people just don't know any better. Like I saw a question from an eldery person who used an out of date word to describe African Americans.
But on the other side of the coin, I have seen questions from Anti-war activists who decried Bush, Israel and Religion.
Personally, I find heated debate interesting and think that Yahoo should loosen up on thier guidelines a little.

I was just there Sweet Chicken, and it's never pretty. At least in P&S people are polite for the most part!

Answer 1

I hate political correctness, if someone has something to say and they are not being malicious then let them have their freedom of speech without the thought police out patroling.

Answer 2

YES

I think it's realllllllllllllly important to use 'appropriate' terms.....

PALEASE....."some people just don't know any better" is a PATHETIC excuse for ignorant behaviour......age is NOT an excuse for racism or use of any other derogatory term....

"Anti-Bushism" is HUGELY different than racism (or any other inappropriate name calling)....for one, Bush has not had to deal with a history of hatred of him that is so strong that it turned to murder (and other disgusting behaviour)....

Debating is great, but it is not necessary to use derogatory terms in order to make a good point...

My grandma used to use a few derogatory terms (that she grew up with) and I'd get mad at her and tell her to use different words, which she now uses. So us "youngin's" need to teach those older AND younger than us to use terms that are not derogatory.

Peace outtttttttttttt ;)
