Quite frankly, all I see here is another example of hypocrisy. This overly sensitive reaction is nothing more than bluster based on a false sense of indignation. Harry Connick Jr has taken the mickey out of black people himself, in order to get a laugh out of an audience and he's not the only one. In any case, this self righteous twit ought to just go back to where he came from and take his supersillious attitudes with him. Go and take a walk in any of the black neighbourhoods in America and see just how PC and sensitive most of their populations are with everyone else living there. The language they use openly about whites (and even themselves, both publicly and privately) would make a religiously PC person turn 24bit shades of red.

In order to get respect you have to earn it. In either case, neither is respectful of one another, or of themselves. PC is nothing but a put down of your own sense of worth and a diminution of your responsibilities and freedom of expression. Just in the same way as being vilifying to anyone is in the same respect.

A little bit of good, adult, common sense needs to prevail here. They need to all grow up and learn to not take things so seriously (or more to the point, take themselves so seriously).
