Yes, people are to easily offended, in fact I believe that some people enjoy being offended or maybe they just like to over react for the attention.

Maybe they just want to control everybody else with the simple phrase 'I'm offended!'

I think your right!

Yeah people are too easily offended. Almost everyday, multiple times a day, someone is on the news talking about how they were offended. People have to think out everything they say in order to not offend someone. As usps already stated, many people probably complain that they are offended because they want attention.

Side: yes

OK, That's it! This is the most offensive debate EVER! Delete this vile thing right now before I call the CD Police! ;)

Side: yes

I wouldn't be surprised if another website took off an article because somebody wrote that. Thankfully, this site is here for the purpose of debating such topics.

Look, I think that some people have forgotten how to take a joke, or to just let something slide. I mean, sure, there are severe cases where people have no choice but to be offended, but some people just can't live without perfection being directed towards them.

Google search results:

"offend" - 13,700,000 results

"offended" - 21,300,000 results

"easily offended" - 3,710,000 results

My analysis is that:

Every 100 times someone offends, only 27 people are easily offended.

However, every 100 times someone offends, 155 people are offended.

So it seems that people are offended easily but not so easily offended.

Side: No

Not to disrespect, but do you realise that you haven't actually stated any clear facts?

You have shown a ratio which reveals many people are offended, but fewer are too easily offended. So, from my point of view, you haven't actually stated anything legit for the negative side.

You have still proven that people are too easily offended, even if it is a small amount out of a large group.

Also, you cannot judge an analysis based on search results from Google, because the context of the search or even the intentions of the search will vary, and all will most certainly not directly relate to this topic.

Side: yes

---------It's all relative to even assume that people are too easily offended. Interpretations of Everything Misconstrue Everything.

Thus everything visible can be offensive. Because someone could be easily offended questioning whether people are easily offended.

Side: No
