They say the word “Dixie” is offensive.
Councilman James Taylor told FOX8 that some folks find the word “offensive” and some folks are “angry” with the name. He said that as a progressive city – they need a name that “everyone can appreciate.”
The fair is just the latest victim of a cultural cleansing of the Southern States by angry liberals wound up tighter than a pair of Daisy Dukes.

Why don't people just say no to these scolds? In 90% of the cases they would eventually just go away once they realized they weren't going to score an easy victory.
ReplyDeleteOnly no would be polite........................:)
DeleteI have no sympathy for people who are offended at almost everything. I no longer care what offends them. I will go out of my way to offend them. I suspect that this is a small minority who strive to pretend to be offended. I don't care.
ReplyDeleteNo more here, that's for sure.
Delete"Some" people? Excuse me, but which people? Who are they? How many are they? Do they constitute anything more than an infinitesimal minority in North Carolina? If so, then bring them forward so that they can be heard.
ReplyDeleteIf not, then take your carpetbaggin' ass back to the liberal shithole it slithered out of and leave us alone.

DeleteHa! :)
Didn't Jeff Davis say never be haughty to the humble or humble to the haughty?
ReplyDeleteYes and here are a few more.

As a Yankee, I must apologize for the progressive scum Yankees trying to destroy American heritage. All kidding aside, people that think this way are a tiny minority. I am shocked by the amount of influence they have. The main problem as most of us in the “silent majority” are too polite. We were taught manners and to respect others. We never needed political correctness to get along. Liberals and progressives are simply uncouth individuals. They think nothing of offending somebody.
ReplyDeleteI am too damned old and the country is too screwed up for me to be polite anymore. I say it the way it is and if you’re offended screw you, I just don’t care. That’s been the problem with political correctness everybody tippy toes around saying what needs to be said. Right now, there is an epidemic of black crime not only on whites but other blacks. Yet the media chooses to ignore it and only print when a white cop shoots a black. Racism is rampant in America but it’s not whites it’s blacks that are racist. Our country is being invaded by uneducated, unskilled and criminal illegal aliens. But if we speak out and say anything were branded racist. Well screw it if you call me racist I might as well be one. My heritage is white European and I’m damn proud of it.

Yes and I've read that the best thing to do is state that you are *"racist" out front and watch them fade away.
Delete*Whatever that means.
I offend you? What does it feel like to be so weak that mere words hurt you?
ReplyDeleteAll in the commie's playbook.
DeleteWhat ever happened to the good old days, when somebody said something nasty to you as a kid, you just replied "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but M855 penetrates soft armor!"
DeleteSomehow I remember the ending differently.:)
DeleteDid it occur to them the term Dixie they find so offensive in the song was written by a free black man from up nawth?
ReplyDeleteBunch nannerheads.
That would require effort.
DeleteTaylor has back-pedaled. He didn't get the support he thought he would get. According to FOX8 poll is 93% to not change the name.

Thanks and good riddance to bad rubbish.
DeleteWe live in Dixie, y'all! What's the problem with that?
ReplyDeleteThe problem are the Yankees and Carpetbaggers who have infested our country. :)
