Highly Offendable Groups. Political groups centered around a common trait or cause that are extremely emotional about it, to the point that they will attempt to exact revenge by any means necessary (by POLTER, for example) on whomever or whatever dares to challenge any of their core beliefs.
Modern HOGs are ones centered upon race, sex, and sexual orientation. Religious zealots in the Western world used to be HOGs, but have been offended by so many people so frequently that they have gotten tired and gave it up.

1) "Bigots" lack tolerance or appreciation of our people, which makes them despicable
2) Bigots would have more tolerance if they just hung around more of our people
3) Those damn, horrible hateful bigots should all be shot dead by us tolerant, peace-loving non-bigots... um, as a service to society, of course.

After 9/11 the word "terrorism" became a much more emotional term for Americans than before, when it was equally deplorable yet much more theoretical in most people's minds (i.e. something that happens elsewhere). Consequently, politically active people engaged in vocabulary hijacking by applying the term "terrorist" to their opponent's activities (e.g. environmental "terrorists", government-sponsored "terrorists", anti-choice "terrorists").

Teacher's union rep: "We will not stand for any cuts in our benefits or salaries. Even if we make six figures with guaranteed employment regardless of performance. Even if the state is on the verge of bankruptcy. Why? Because this is about social justice"

An absolutely horrible, despicable, racist thing to call an individual. Unless, of course, you're black and then it's simply harmless slang for a woman with oily, unkempt hair.
Don Imus will be perpetually referred to as the guy who uttered a "racial slur" against the Rutgers women's bball team when he called them "nappy headed ho"s. Puzzlingly enough, none of the words in this phrase have anything to do with race. But, hey, since when did minor details like that get in the way of the media's campaign to constantly aggravate racial tensions in the name of selling news?

A name given to really fat black women, usually approaching 300 lbs (~135 KG) because once they begin getting really massive they all begin to look alike. Their facial features get scrunched, their bellies are the first thing to enter a room and their butts the last thing to leave it.
Bobeeshas are typically very lazy, too, but this is partly understandable - if you had an extra 175 pounds strapped to you, you wouldn't want to move much more than you had to. But never get between a Bobeesha and her food or you will be sorry. Bobeeshas are also usually very irritable, have a bad attitude and love to play the blame game. Because of their difficulty in attracting mates, if they have kids, they will usually all be from different sperm donors.

I desperately needed some painkillers after my surgery, but I had a big ol' Bobeesha for a nurse who wouldn't get or do anything for me. Whenever I asked for painkillers, food, water or whatever, Bobeesha would try to convince me I didn't really need or want them (e.g., "What do you want a drink fo'? It's just gonna make you pee and you don't want to have to walk around with all those bandages, now do you?"). If I persisted, she would then ask with obvious irritation some other nurse to get these things. Eventually, they got angry and complained that she wasn't doing her job, but then she suddenly found the energy to beat them down with a racism stick.

Noun. A coveted status sought after by liberals. Victimhood implies that one or more victims are due some form of compensation from one or more offenders. The sought-after compensation is typically economic such as money, jobs, promotions, awards or opportunities such as college admissions. Intangible compensation is often a secondary consideration and usually not directly related to the offense in question, such as the displacement of blame for general achievement failures.
