bjone6 Well there are a lot of intolerant people out there, like religious zealouts and racists. The PC/sensitive people try to compensate by being just as brash as the other people and we have these two extremes.

Should television be more careful

owensmom @owensmom (23) • United States 21 Mar 07

Don't tell

jessescottus @jessescottus (807) • United States 20 Mar 07

the animals that they are animals. If you tell an animal that you know that they are an animal you will get the "cold-shoulder" from them. I think that they feel that it is a raciest remark. Maybe even derogatory.

bjone6 I agree a little. I think our pets are actually the masters. They don't work and yet they still receive all the necessities that we receive. I don't think that animals "think" though. Maybe the tone and inflection you use when saying animals might aggrivate...
