So this is a Real Talk thread, for those of you who do not know what Real Talk means, it means no BS, speak from your heart without worrying about repercussions, or offending others. It means to speak freely and truthfully.
My real talk for the day:
We need to stop all this political correctness bu11sh!t, we need to go back to where we once were and allow people to say what and how they feel without worrying about getting sued, or losing their job, or offending this group or that group or one kind of religion over another or an atheist.
We need to keep Christmas in our vocabulary and in our emails etc etc and not replace it with "Happy Holidays"
We need to keep "In God we trust" in the all mighty dollar and in our courtrooms.
We need to have some kind of faith and believe that there is still goodness in people and that this world is not full of hate.
We need to learn to love again not only our families and friends but our neighbors and strangers and above all we need to learn to love ourselves.
In closing if I have offended anyone, then I must be doing something right....

I forgot to mention, if at all possible (I know some of you can not just say what you feel without arguing with someone else you disagree with) the thread should be what YOU believe in, regardless of what others think.
In other words not a two way discussion, just random REAL TALK on what you feel.

Stop making stupid people famous.
Grow some skin or hair on your sack and quit getting offended by everyone with a different opinion.
Don't take everything personal and stop taking life so serious. You're not getting out alive.
And Merry Christmas.Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. – Thomas Jefferson
Be yourself; Everyone else is already taken. - Oscar Wilde

Even if you're not Christian, when someone says, "Merry Christmas" to you, have some decency and say "Thank You." They're being nice for cotsake!

Do all that, and you will look as good as your genes will let you, be content as the arseholes around you will allow, and maybe get a few screws. The particular virtues of weight training are in the discipline it brings to both mind and body, and, if you do it right, it will make you look good naked and do well what you got your clothes off to do."

The only reason 'In God We Trust' is ANYWHERE is because McCarthy and a bunch of NUTJOBS managed to put the 'fear of commie' into enough ball-less polititians that it got approved.
Now there are enough religious zealots in trailer parks and red states that they cannot see it is wrong.
E Pluribus Unum is what is SUPPOSED to be... and it is RIGHT.

BH, your real talk is herecy. First, if I start talking from the bottom of my heart, I will be in jail, and rightly so, for my opinion on certain nationalities and such. Then again, if I start talking how to tweak trigger group on 1911 or give my most interesting handloading recipes, someone somewhere will die, by accident of course. We do not love our neighbours or strangers, because they are our competition for food and air to breathe, and this is a very natural survival thing. To say we love them will be a lie... are you liar BH? We love our family because this is what brings an offspring, the only ------real success------- on a bilogical genetic level. This is why we all workout, trying to be stronger to beat the crap out of neighbour in competition for female, when we look at the root of things. I say you are brainwashed and talk non-sense, or maybe you need a good sleep or tail or whatever.

I the real world there really isnt that much political correctness going on.
My friends make crude jokes and insult people and whole groups of people and find it funny.
The problem happens when we listen to the very few on tv who have the microphone. Its a small group who push their agenda on the rest of us but in the end, it really just irritates the average joe."To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda
