Well, when I see you dismiss someone else's opinion with "whatever" several times in a thread and show a lack of regard for any opinion other than your own, I tend not to pay too much attention the rest of the way because past experience has taught me it's gonna' become one of those threads, #shrug.

Hoffman or Gov. Dayton, I assure you. They both merely found an opportunity to pad their stats without opposition through a totally meaningless action with literally no repercussions whatsoever.

Well, I guess the fact that someone felt the need to introduce legislation at the taxpayer's expense when there has been absolutely no outcry anywhere, anytime, concerning the correctness of the name "Asian Carp", indicates to me that I'm operating under a correct assumption, #shrug. Somehow I feel we're on the same side on this point (a waste of legislation), but maybe for different reasons?

"Highly inflammatory and pure hyberboble?" ... I don't see your point. Maybe to you, alone, #shrug. "Highly inflammatory"? Have the protests started already? :lol:. I think the example of the Asian Carp renaming is a perfect example of how the PC crowd could possibly come for the Saints mascot and certainly not hyperbole, #shrug.

You lost me a little bit on this one with "slippery slope" thing ... not all your fault, they don't call me 'SloMotion' because I'm the fastest m'fer on the track ... but you're calling for letting go of the "pc is ruining the country" thing, right?

I guess if I was the only one that felt PC is ruining the country and/or society as a whole, I'd consider it, but there's just too many people out there that agree, #shrug.
