If he sounds serious, then it's okay to be offended if you feel you are just, but for an argument to start over something as trivial as a misplaced insult or wellplaced for that matter, it's just too stupid to go ignored.

Ah, I see.

You didn't have to let us know... This is a forum, you make a post and leave it. Then you return later to see the result was, if there was any. This isn't an IM board or whatever...

I was about to post about this.
Being politically correct bugs the heck out of me. It's kinda like waling through a minefield with each mine being a word that you can't say without someone getting offended.
At first, it's just one word. So you're like, "Ok, I just don't say that word anymore." Then a few more words get added and you're like, "I'll just avoid these also." Then, more and more common words that are usually slang get added and you can't say them. This is wear it gets tricky. Now, words that most people use on a weekly, if not daily, basis aren't allowed. And if you slip up one time, the whole field explodes right in your face! I'm not really saying this has happened to me personally as I'm pretty good about guarding my tongue, but people that I know have this happen to them all the time.

I never heard about the Mexican-American war, until today, and from i saw, were pretty greedy, though, i can understand that some part of Texas was owned by rebels, they weren't part of USA, but by the time USA got into all of it, we took Mexican land, one by one, California,and others, but if we didn't we wouldn't have as much prosperity, but still, was the cost of the war worth it? I don't really believe it was worth to go through it all

American is a land that was both won through wars and taken through trickery and greed.
