Yet more political correctness gone mad

The ones that annoy me the most are giving up long held traditions and celebrations because someone might not agree with said tradition and get offended therefor we should just give up our culture and tradition because of the "offended". I recently read a story about a town in Italy that was not going to display the nativity scene around Christmas because a non-Christmas celebrater may be offended. Idiots that decide things like this should be beaten.

Just make room for the Ramadan display.
And an Auditors Day display, a Throw the Jew Down the Well well, etc.

But those people wouldn't necessarily be standing up for freedom of speech under other circumstances.
I'm not in favour of political correctness, no matter which group is intended to 'benefit' from it. In my opinion, political correctness appoints one group as the benevolent guardians and protectors of the other. If the goal is for everyone to feel like equals; the worst thing that you can do is to elevate heterosexual whites to the role of guardians protecting the poor vulnerable sexual and racial minorities against mere words (and if you are a white heterosexual male, you're quite rightly supposed to stop being emotionally wounded by words at round about the age of 8).
It could be a balloon. It could be Franky. It could be very fresh and clean. It could be those ways.
