I know this is old news. I just wanted to express my 3 cents on how off the deep-end some PC-pathetic people have gone with this politically correctness nonsense.

There are enough problems in this world for us to deal with let alone some nuts cases finding new ways to stir up the pot.
I would think these screwballs would be a little less overly sensitive and quit dissecting everything to the 10,000th degree. It is absolutely ludicrous.
Dictionary.com – definition of thug.
1.
a cruel or vicious ruffian, robber, or murderer.
2.
(sometimes initial capital letter) one of a former group of professional robbers and murderers in India who strangled their victims.
I know as many white thugs as I do black thugs. Thugs come in all shapes and sizes, fat – skinny – ugly – beautiful – unsavory backgrounds – races – nationalities – religions – in the business world – some of the worst thugs are politicians.
Personally, I think that anyone who thinks THUG is a substitute for the “N” word, they are instigating thugs with too much time on their hands.
A dog is a dog – a goat is a goat – a pig is a pig – a horse is a horse and a thug is a thug, not what some fool wants to interpret for themselves.
Does it ever occur to any of these delusional thugs; the more attention that is brought to any issue/word can make it more subject to scrutiny?
Cut out the 
folks and quit stirring the thug pot. Concentrate your efforts on creating peace between the races instead of hostility.
