Imagine a society where no one is ever offended….Everyone behaving in such a way that whatever they do, at all times, is absolutely non-offensive to anyone. Every person would have the God given right to not be offended…..by anything….ever. Everyone would be so happy. In this perfect utopia of Non-0ffensive land” It’s always bright and happy and oh so wonderful.

No thanks.

This is the real world where NO ONE has the RIGHT to not be offended. You, me, no one has the right to affect change of any kind because we are offended.

What causes a person to get offended? Personally, I think it’s a way too high opinion of one’s self. It seems to stem from a thought that no one else has the right to say or do anything that makes one uncomfortable. No one is allowed to say anything or act in anyway, or wear something that offends these people. And yes, I do mean “these people”.

Let’s look at the heart of the matter. Watch the news. Some guy is offended by a sticker on a co-workers hard hat, while another is offended by a flag. Let’s not forget those that are offended by historical monuments. Do these symbols really affect their lives to the point that they cannot go on? Apparently so.

Here’s an idea, get over yourself, you’re just not that important. Trust me, I know – remember, I’m one of those Christian Conservatives on the right- you know – the only group of people in this country that it is still ok to offend.
