Whoa, 5 alarm stop there, sterile. Why do you think you have the right to tell someone what they should or should not take offense to? It might be hard for some people to understand, but we don't always understand we're being offensive when we are being offensive.

And if you have the gall to say "Well, you have a problem for being offended!" you just step back. Because you translate that argument to any other issue, and it falls apart. Any other kind of bigotry. It's people of color's fault for being offended at racists? It's womens' fault they just can't take insults from misogynists? It's gays people's fault for being so sensitive at being called abominations?

Sorry, I just need to tell you to check it here, Sterile. People who don't like bigotry aimed at them don't have a 'problem' they have to get over. Even if they're some kind of patronizing loopy ass bullshit with 'forgiveness.' You can sprinkle as many friendly words in their that you want, you intent isn't magic. Just because someone meant something else when they said or did something doesn't make their actions magically OK. That's ridiculous. Your intentions aren't a band-aid.
