Yesterday I was singing a few nursery rhymes to my kid while sitting in the park next to other moms that where there with their kids and..one of the rhymes where.. - --
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had a big fall
All the kings horses and all the kings men
Couldn't put Humpty together again<--would break a kids heart
When a lady, turned to me and said....."You should leave off the ending to the nursery rhyme, it might up set other kids that are listening" I was like WTF?? (into myself of course) so I asked her what the big deal was, she said.... "It may make them cry thinking about poor humpty not being able to be put back together again" I said..."no offence, but that's just being silly, it was good enough for us when we where kids and didn't upset us at all, so why would it upset a kid now?" She tried to tell me that kids change....so What did BM do....I sang another nursery rhyme to Becky...it went like....
Baa Baa black sheep
have you any wool?
Yes sir yes sir, 3 bags full
One for the master,
One for the dame,
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane.
She turned to me again and said I was wrong and that the nursery rhyme was also offencive...I am now supposed to sing....Baa Baa RAINBOW sheep....ok that was enough for me I took Becky and went far away as possible
I thought it was madness that people through out the UK and ireland where told that Christmas was offencive to their muslim community...but after reading a number of reports in newspapers and on line it is getting way out of hand and someone should put a stop to it
Few sourses to look at

It has gotten to a point that you cannot call a blackboard...blackboard...its now a chalkboard...not allowed to say you own a black car...you must say you own a colored car
Playing pool...guess what..it's not the black ball anymore it's the colored ball...you hair is not black its really really dark dark brown...the list goes on...and kids todays heads are being filled with this nonsense
See it's ok to call something WHITE...but not black...even though a black guy would refer to himself as...a black guy..but if a white person says it..man are they in trooouuuubbllleeee
It's all being well to let the colored folks have their say and get their way...but what about the white people..their rights to this issue is taken from them
If this keeps up sooner or later there will be some kind of war over this and people will demand to have their own rights...like they used to before this crap started...and if they don't...I wouldn't be surprised if a white v's blacks (coloured even) got into a war to try and ship them out of the country, and that wouldn't be fair...after all black, yellow white ect used to be able to live without this hassle untill some punk decided to make things awkward, and yapped about such trivial nonsense and it soon spread...so now the white folks throughout the UK and Ireland have to watch what they say but the colored people don't

We Americans slaughtered the English language alright. Many words like "Colored" has dropped the "U" between the "o" & "r" here. We know it isn't proper correct grammar in the English language as spoken in England or the UK. I don't believe the Oxford university or King's English is taught in Kindergarden or preschool yet.
, but that hadn't scarred him either. I say the Humpty Dumpty rhyme change is a sick joke.+
