Historic paintings of fur traders were being restored.

Now the university has ordered them removed.

Political correctness has reached the level of insanity.

If you bury it deep enough, and lie about it all the more, our history will have never existed.

I look at the painting here and just say "Huh?"

If anybody is being stereotyped it is the French fur trader who is stupid enough to stand up in a canoe. No Native American would ever do that.

Washington standing up in a row boat while crossing the Delaware is one thing, but a canoe?

Ironic that the greatest success that these failed, Neolithic cultures ever rise to is the attacks on a successful, competent culture that has actually invented stuff.

If not for the civilizing influence of the Western man these dullards would still be scraping and eating tree bark as their medicine.

If not for the corrosive effect of liberalism these fire water drinkers would be laughed out of town for their ludicrous demands.

In this case, I agree with the university.

They should have more modern and realistic portrayal of the Indians.

They should have a painting of an Indian walking around with 50 ballots and a Democrat Party operative handing the Indian money.

First Nations people


Is “First Nations people” the politically correct term for American Indians? From the context that what I figured “First Nations” means.

Sounds like the Chancellor had to stock up on adult Depends, after Mitting his pants over these "trigger" paintings...

University Chancellor Bob Meyer later came out as a metrosexual transgender who likes to wear women's underwear for his jihadi Moslem lovers... /s

Repression of knowledge strikes me as the behavior of a non-University. I don’t know how these people talk to each other without bursting into laughter at how dopey they all are.

Perhaps Paul Ryan would like to comment. After all he represents some of the people of Wisconsin and they pay taxes to support this teaching institution.

How about a comment from Governor Scott Walker? Isn’t the university president a state employee?

If the elected political leaders won’t stand up to the tyranny of political correctness who will?

First time I’ve ever seen anyone in the U.S. refer to them as First Nations and not Native Americans. I thought it was only a Canadian term.

All trace of indigenous American pre Columbus occupation is being removed from the literature and the walls of America. It is White people doing this. Why do they despise the Indians so?
