Could you define 'political correctness'?


Your version or mine?

Political correctness is entirely subjective and while there are what
can be thought of as "PC", in fact, it is anything that one finds to
be offensive in particular when dealing with politicians and their
need to be all things to all people.

In short, there isn't a definition - it's whatever you find offensive.

In this case, it is an attempt by certain members of an outside
non-government agency to restrict the hunting/recreational fishing
communities ability to participate in their chosen sports. It is very
popular down state where people hunt their food in upscale, trendy
boutique stores. Up in the rural NW and NE CT, a certain population
which has moved instate and upstate which seems to believe that large
property owners can't or should not be allowed to set the rules by
which one allows hunters, or fishermen, onto streams, ponds or rivers
that adjoin or run through one's property.

So in this instance, that is my definition of Political Correctness as
it affects this particular issue.
