This Catholic College has 1A issues:
**In 2007, the president of the University of St. Thomas, Father Dennis Dease, cancelled a planned speech by Nobel Peace Prize laureate and anti-apartheid figure, Desmond Tutu, on the grounds that his presence might offend some members of the local Jewish community.[26] Many faculty members of Voice for Peace led an email campaign calling on St. Thomas to reconsider its decision,[27] which the president did and invited Tutu to campus.[28] Tutu declined the re-invitation, speaking instead at the Minneapolis Convention Center at an event hosted by Metropolitan State University.[29] However, Tutu later addressed the issue two days later while making his final appearance at Metro State.**

“Racist? Are they saying that Arabs are part camel?”
Camels are funny looking...
(even though the AArabs have camel beauty contests !)
and they are probably not a “girl friend”
of any AArabs on Campus...
off campus...perhaps...

PC liberals are such morons they can’t even be parodied anymore.
There’s no scenario anyone could make up that would be more ridiculous than their actual behavior.

Love the picture!
Some might think the knitted mouth caps are to prevent spitting, but we know it’s because they wouldn’t quit saying “Mike, Mike, Mike....”

Rarely do I save info from a source....but on this one I did....FWIW. Camels can be nasty. They are deadful and best viewed from a distance, from my experience, having lived in the M.E. for a couple of years.
Camel Polo
Camels wait during a media presentation of Camel Polo at the Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club at Arabian ranches in Dubai, Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2008.Twelve polo-playing camels, selected for their size and ability, have received four hours training every day to attract people to camel polo which was launched by Dnata, a Middle east travel management company.
