Oklahoma liquor store faced backlash over ‘offensive’ sign in their window

air to refer to this generation as the “snowflake” generation, as some have, there is undoubtedly a sense of change permeating the world right now.

While in some cases that’s a good thing—I mean, there are behaviors that were once considered normal but have no place in modern society—there are other situations where it’s impossible to help but feel that our urge to police one another is gone a bit too far.

A liquor store in Oklahoma came to this decision point after putting up a sign that caused controversy.
