You misunderstand. "You" may make an entirely innocent and seemingly inoffensive remark, but subjectively, by your standard, If find offensive, I can call the police have you arrested and detained for 8hrs.

However, we can all inadvertently offend people without realising, but in most cases, if the comment(s) are withdrawn and an apology made, there's no harm done.

After you've been arrested and held in a cell for 8hrs.....and that's no harm done is it?
and why should you withdraw a comment and apologise, if no offence or malice was intended?
