If someone asks me, "Can you be TOO PC?" I will show them this article. http://i.imgur.com/B7L5BuP.png

Even the US army can't fight the SJWs.

God that killed me. "Chinks in armor" is a very well known idiomatic phrase. It has its own goddamn Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chink_in_one's_armor

Those people are morons and, in actuality, I find them FAR more racist for reading the word "chinks" and immediately thinking of the slur against Chinese people.

Oh God I knew this would happen some day.

An old friend of mine happens to be Chinese, and even he thought that measure was excessive. He shared this piece, for anyone that's having trouble with the image.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2015/01/30/army-deletes-tweet-referring-to-chinks-in-armor-after-racism-accusations/?tid=sm_fb

To be fair, you can have a kneejerk reaction to a word even if you know the context is completely different. I'm probably opening another can of worms with the t-word, but this is an example of a trigger. If someone's been called that word in one context all their life, it can cause an immediate physical and mental reaction. I would try to avoid saying it when it's easy to substitute another word, like "flaw."

BUT it's ridiculous of anyone to accuse them of using the word in a racist way deliberately, and I doubt any of the accusers are people who have any kind of trigger for the word anyway.

Bullshit. You are a fucking idiot. You can't be triggered by a word in a fucking tweet. Especially one that is an actual word.

You... have no idea what a trigger is. Okay.

*face palm*
