One for the dad's - had any PC toys?

[blazer]

One of my brothers mates brought a farm set for his little lad, the excited boy opened up his farm amimal set to find - no 'pigs'. Dad complained, saying how can your have a farm set with no pigs - guess the answer:confused1:

 

Next my wifes grandson opened his new fire engine, watched by his dads brother a fireman so he checked out the crew to find, 1-white guy,1- black guy, 1-brown guy, 1- white woman, 1- old boy - yep a totally PC crew:thumbup1:

 

Any more:laugh1:

Ohhh I hate that - we are a Christian Country - it is CHRISTMAS - the Mass of Christ not some Coca Cola marketing campaign!

[skyhuck]

At my daughters primary there were Hindu's and Muslim's singing the carols at the school Xmas service, it was nice to see.

 

I think a lot of the time its white middles class folk trying not to offend people who won't be offended.
