While the question was a little general, it did allow for some examples to be brought up, which they were. If you would like, I could provide some more examples?

Oh no, fantastic for the thread. Promoted some good and interesting discussion, just saying not to read too much into the poll results. You're welcome to share some examples though, they trigger even more discussion and exaggerated PC tends to be quite humorous.

Antibuddha;

You are perceptive.......I don't know all the personalities yet and yes I should have known that left of center folks would avoid the shallowness of the question like the plague!

The Arizona Daily Star paints a chilling portrait of a sexual predator who ran amok at the University Medical Center in Tucson in part because staffers who suspected foul play were afraid to speak up for fear of being labeled racists.

Daniel Lugo Perez, a former UMC patient-care technician, was convicted of sexual assault for raping a sodomizing a number of patients during the 23 months he worked at the Arizona hospital.

Investigators attempting to figure out how he was able to do this under the staff's noses said one of the reasons was political correctness. At least three UMC nurses thought Perez was staying too long in female patients' rooms, but the one who spoke out was immediately pegged a racist and shouted down by the rest of the staff.
