I perfectly respect people’s right to be offended… within reason.  For instance, a person should not have a right to be offended at a crack in the pavement… but should have the right to be offended when morons smoke around a non-smoker.  That’s highly offensive… but when you cause offence to someone and you genuinely did not mean it… and the offence was caused by the improper choice of vocabulary as opposed to the wrong vocabulary backed up by ignorance – then I don’t think that person should have the right to get offended.

Now for instance… when a gutless coward makes evil comments about an innocent child that’s more offensive than anyone could imagine.  For someone to say something evil about an innocent, simply because factual statements were made, makes it even more offensive.

Let’s talk about the type of person that might make that sort of attack in any particular situation.  I think we can all agree they are cowards… but can we all agree that the person should die for what they’ve said?  I think they should.  There often comes situations in which the offended person cannot inflict vengeance on the attacker because there are much larger things at stake.  I like to wonder what it would take to cause the offended person to take out the attacker forever.
