The general public seems to have devolved into a bunch of thin skinned whiny crybabies looking for something about which to be offended.

As soon as you start determining "consequences" for what is otherwise free speech, then you really don't have free speech anymore. Your list of non-approved speech seems to be endless. GB passed a law making it a crime to utter any speech that offends someone. I think a man was arrested in Chicago or NYC, maybe GB, for saying a policeman's horse looked gay, another arrested for "barking" at a police dog. When are we going to do something about mean stares and looks? Or a mean spirited disapproving head shake?
