Does it offend you, yeah?

It seems like people take offense to absolutely everything these days. Offhand remarks are so easily misconstrued, and entertainers and politicians are walking on eggshells trying not to say something politically incorrect. When one of them slips up, he or she is torn apart by the media. And these aren't even Mel Gibson-sized slip ups; many of them have nothing to do with race.

I'm not saying that people shouldn't be sensitve to others and their lifestyles and beliefs. But everyone's human, and everyone says something they regret once in a while. And everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion.
