Portland school sees racism in peanut butter and jelly sandwiches

In an effort to combat perceived discrimination, one Portland school seems to have gone off the deep end by suggesting peanut butter and jelly sandwiches carry racist connotations, Twitchy reported Monday.

According to the Portland Tribune, Verenice Gutierrez, principal of Harvey Scott K-8 School, "picks up on the subtle language of racism" on a daily basis.

“What about Somali or Hispanic students, who might not eat sandwiches?” Gutierrez asked. “Another way would be to say: ‘Americans eat peanut butter and jelly, do you have anything like that?’ Let them tell you. Maybe they eat torta. Or pita.”

The proper answer in any situation involving this or like stupidity is as follows...
Cut below the dotted line, print and distribut4. Print on business cards/whatever:

---

“Racism is the inherent belief in superiority based on race. I don’t THINK I am superior to you because you are of a different race. I KNOW I am superior to you since you have proven yourself to be a F’ing idiot.”

PS: Idiots come in ALL colors.

To people that are consumed by thoughts of racism, everything reminds them of.................racism.

It is a mania, psychosis, paranoia or some sort of mental illness.

PB&J IS racist...especially if you make it with white bread! (/s)

So, Ms. Gutierrez, if you visited a school in China, and they served you Chinese food and gave you chopsticks, would you call them a bunch of insensitive racists?

"especially if you make it with white bread

What if you made it with Buckwheat?

[Nea Wood]

Is the person eating the peanut butter and jelly sandwich white? Then it’s racist. ‘Cause everything white people do, think, say or eat is automatically racist.

Hope that clears things up!

I know how to solve the problem...water finger food.

Pour it between your two hands and chew away.

That should mollify even these idiots like this Oregon “educator.”

I ate about a pound of lutefisk last night. Do I qualify as a minority? Can I get some benefits?

If the sold enchiladas, the school would be lauded for its multicultural approach. White people are considered expendable and what they eat unacceptable. Chocolate covered grasshoppers would get a federal NEA grant.

[Best and Brightest]

Today’s brainwashed educators are dumber than dirt.

[21twelve]

Probably not. I figured as an older white guy of Norwegian heritage I fit the “Disadvantaged Business” status. But no such luck.

[Personal Responsibility]

So open minded their brains have fallen out.

What if you made it with Buckwheat?

Actually, I like PB&J on buckwheat, but since I'm (mostly) white, I guess that would be racist, too.
