LOL

Now HuffPro is rehashing comments they made back in 2014? They really are washed up...and this was stupid the first time they made this statement. They completely miss the point of the film, and if you've watched the movie in recent years network TV has already scrubbed some things from the movie to appease the PC culture.

btw, love how they (HuffPro) are getting destroyed in the comments. It's making rounds on other sites too.

This is a scary world we're moving into. The first amendment means nothing, and everyone is offended by everything regardless of the context.

Who needs the first amendment when you got great leadership? Our nation's greatest phone salesman, Tim Cook, is willing to give us moral guidance and let us know what we should and shouldn't be discussing. I have no doubt Cook, and the rest of our ruling class, has our best interests in mind.

Kevin Hart's in the news again for things he said several years ago. He's a flippin' comedian! He's supposed to say outrageous things, make fun of people and get us to laugh at the ridiculous and at ourselves, and so on. He was slated to host the Academy Awards this year, but due to "offensive comments" he made a decade ago that are no longer PC acceptable in today's climate, he's being crucified. He said he'd addressed those things long ago, apologized for them, and had changed since, but that wasn't enough for the perpetually offended PC police. They demanded he apologize & grovel again and he refused, so now he's not going to host the show.

This crap needs to stop.

come on Bish, unless you're attacking Trump, the GOP, Religion, Holidays, or deplorable white people, it's just not that funny.

and music... can you believe how completely horrible Baby It's Cold Outside is? Forget about the countless songs calling women bitches and hoes, pimp slapping, and much much more......., let's focus all of our energy on white people songs from the 40s. I mean all those derogatory songs of the last 40 years are just art that describes how things are, while the 40s songs are clearly anti women.

I don’t understand how people still watch these shows? We have a family friend that hosts academy awards watch parties every year. It’s her thing. She still gets all excited about these Hollywood award shows and she invites us every year... the thought of having to sit through that crap today is literally painful to me...

Kind of off topic but have you ever see that Lifetime movie A Deadly Adoption with Will Ferrel?

The first time this song came on the radio this holiday season I noticed something off. I said to my wife, "wow, this song is awfully rapey." Pretty sure the pussificaiton of America is getting to me...

I mean, this is just targeted harassment at this point -- <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Colorado baker back in court after refusing to make cake celebrating gender transition: <a href="https://t.co/nVrKCLrHvz">https://t.co/nVrKCLrHvz</a> <a href="https://t.co/yfvmkapB9g">pic.twitter.com/yfvmkapB9g</a></p>— ABC 7 Chicago (@ABC7Chicago) <a href="https://twitter.com/ABC7Chicago/status/1075524917725184000?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 19, 2018</a></blockquote>

They could go literally anywhere, but are choosing to harass someone because they can.

This is what's wrong with political correctness. Read their apology tweets, it is pure cringe.

it's pretty disgusting. i'd personally bake a cake for anyone, but I respect people's rights, and business's rights not to do something too. How you can let big business express their political beliefs by spreading billions into politics, yet step on a small business for expressing their political or religious beliefs is beyond me.
