What I Think Of Political Correctness: There is nothing wrong with using the words oriental, niggardly, or minority in a conversation. However, I don´t like the word “African-American”, or anything-American for that matter. We´re all Americans and those dashes just divide us unnecessarily. Likewise, we´d all be better off if we were willing to admit that there was nothing wrong with the Willie Horton commercial but Affirmative Action is just as repulsive, wrong, and discriminatory as the Jim Crow laws were.
