  One of the comments after the article sums it up well...

  Yep, those who look for "offense" will find it!

  I have zero patience for those fools.

  There's no proof until someone finds a picture with the whole gang on a bus.
  
  Personaly, I've always felt like woodstock was given short billing.

  The extreme PC crap is the worst things about today's left. I get being sensitive to certain things, but most of it is way out of hand. 

  Something you've said I can agree with

  I’m disgusted that **** like this even has to come up and be a thing nowadays. I can remember the days when there wasn’t constant drama.

  what I learned from spending the last week in Washington DC is that everything is racist.

  First off, I was "distracted" by that Sara Sampaio in a red bikini article in the side-bar!

  Now about that classic episode, young people will find offense everywhere. Since they weren't around back then -- they can only perceive and evaluate from what they know now.
  
  There's a reason it's a "Classic".... It's from another era. Things were different back then. Surprise, surprise, it doesn't make everyone with today's "modern" sensibilities happy.  It was progressive for it's time.
  
  Forty-five years from now these same people will be tryin' to explain to their grand kids why many of today's programing isn't Racist, Sexist, Homophobic, Pedophilic, Xenophobia, Specist, Misanthropic or suffering from Religism!
  
  The cycle will continue.

  Things were different back then, just the way it was.
