It demonstrates what Seinfeld has been saying for years, that comedy has died on the college campus.
Yes minds have gotten smaller and weaker some things never mature.
Senator Rand Paul likely said no.
Then again, Melinda Gates graduated from there. They should have gotten her and disbarred former District Attorney, Mike Nifong, who brought about false rape charges against Duke University students, to give a joint commencement speech.
In 1982 I had just relocated to Greensboro, NC. I saw that the local state-run gay college was producing an opera that they called La Traviata.
I knew the work and bought a ticket.
As the curtain rose, I heard the familiar strain of the overture. At the opening of Act One, I heard an unfamiliar warble.
Turned out, they were singing it in English.
I returned to the box office and asked the commie working there if the Opera was La Traviata it whether it was The Traveler.
The little shit said it was an English production because the singers couldn’t pronounce the Italian language. He refuse my request for a refund due to false advertising.
I walked out.

Had to be UNCG, where the women are women and the men are, too.
Aww, the little brainwashed know-nothings got offended by a Jewish comedian?
I’m sure glad they learned all that tolerance stuff they’re always preaching.
OY! They weren’t going to get very far as opera singers!
My sentiments, exactly. They did, though, think they were awesome.
His words now sound prophetic:
And let me say this in English
so you can understand what I am saying.
[Interviewer: I have translation.]
No, I know you have translation,
but I just want to make sure
you get it right.
There will come a day
that we will see far more
radical extremists and terrorists
coming out of Europe
because of a lack of decsion making,
trying to be politically correct
or assuming that they know
the Middle East, and they know Islam
and they know the others
far better than we do.
And I'm sorry, but that's pure ignorance.
Duke University. Nothing but Jersey ass hats.
The very same. Cone Mills was trying to keep out the unions and ironically the unions used Duke Commies to insert themselves. Covered iirc on you tub fwiw. A Commie jewish med student foolishly engaged the Klan from Reidsville. The entire union effort is what is responsible for bankers to advise the mills to move over seas. Which they did, and put millions of Americans out of work, generations of good jobs.
It was definitely the Klan vs. Communists. And those utilizing both groups for their aims. Cannot get away from a company fighting unionization. It was not “Norma Jean” (the movie).
The Cone Mills in NC. It happened in a conflict in the projects of Greensboro, NC.
There were other similar events in E. NC, for example the burning destruction of mill owners homes in Milton,NC. The unionizers came down from Danville, VA (Burlington Gold Cup) to destroy things. Did not get much press, nationally of course.
Wilmington was a different kind of interaction, since it was a town of major Blockade runners in the Civil War, with descendants who rebuilt railroads and businesses the Union destroyed in the last days of Shermans grand circle raid up from Savannah. Point of reference for the forces of friction many years later. The first post war mills (all Yankee owned) came into NC and were powered by water on major rivers. Glencoe, for example- not a State museum park.
Not quite. Internal one not US majors.
Yes that is true..as it is true now that FBI makes up most of the Klan today, preventative so to say. Just as they tried to do J6, and failed to keep a lid on it.
