I'm sick of people being offended. The idea that if you "offend" someone, that some kind of appeasement is neccessary really winds me up.

It's one of our freedoms. If someone is offended that's fine they can be offended.

It's a point of view, what you find offensive I may not, and vice versa.

Unless it is prescribed in law that the "offensive" act is illegal in any way, (which of course is different), Otherwise if anybody says to you "I find that offensive" say "good" and then tell them to F****ff
And my response that is .... eh?

He is not being sued, nor investigated, or being censored in any way. Someone made a critism of his comedy and some of us agree, we are entitled to give criticism about his style of comedy just as much as he is entitled to say what he did. You mention freedoms well this is just one of them.

Same applies here.

She offended? Well that's unfortunate for her then isn't it?
Him as well because it reinforces his critics view on his comedy, he may not care, but I don't recall any long term "shock comedians". There is only so far he can get with the "he can't say that, can he?" type of jokes before people get bored.
