University of Pennsylvania president Amy Gutmann threw her annual Halloween costume party at her home Tuesday night. Among the guests was Saad Saadi, who came dressed as a suicide bomber, complete with plastic dynamite strapped to his chest and a toy automatic rifle. Worse, Gutmann posed with Saadi!
An obvious question: would Gutmann have posed with a guest--or even allowed him into her house--if he'd dressed as Adolf Hitler or a Nazi SS officer? A KKK member?
But in modern liberal circles, posing as a Palestinian suicide bomber (see his kefiya) is just fine. After all, he mainly tries to kill innocent Jews.

I agree. The shrill responses and demands for apologies for anything making someone slightly uncomfortable are getting ridiculous.
I hate whining.
Yes. We need all be to more 'sensitive' or someone, somewhere might get 'offended'.
Having sensibility does not mean just what you think. It does mean the ability to feel or perceive, but it also means having keen intellectual perception.
I might be if I know what the hell you are talking about ?
This doesn't look like a joke to me. It looks like a threat.
A) Copy and paste is your friend. Become acquainted.
B) Google and dictionaries are your friends, too.
Could you see the President of Oral Roberts or Rev. Falwell posing with a Jihadist or KKK. My goodness, It would have been front cover of TIME,Newsweek and front news of most MSM. OH yes and his resignation would have been demanded.
You must think I'm in the military and you're John Kerry
How about answering my question?
Why would I be offended by a talkative or wordy priest?
And since you didn't know the definition and exposed your ignorance I offered to show you how to fix that ignorance.
Maybe you don't know how, I don't know, but you should have, if if you don't, I've told you about it.
Next thing is that you should do your own homework and look it up yourself!
You must think I'm in the military and you're John Kerry
What a foolish thing to say! You don't show enough upstairs to even qualify for the military! But, foolish is as foolish does and you seem to live up to it.
I'm gonna back out of this discussion with you since arguing with a fool is foolish itself.
Bye!
Since you grossly misspelled the word it is obvious
Hey, in case you didn't notice YOU misspelled the word in your original post.
You have no idea of my qualifications
Just remember YOU started this asinine sub thread by posting a large word to see if I was going to understand it and be offended, which leads to the conclusion that you must be a pretentious and vastly insecure
Who is so insecure that they need to do such a thing as to prove nothing but you have command of a Internet dictionary.
You may now ignore me
Then why did this Syrian student state in a newspaper interview his costume was a "freedom martyr" costume?
Because he's a moron.
