“The possibility for offense” — how pansy is that? Can’t anyone have a theme party anymore? What’s next—will toga parties be found offensive to Italians and “Animal House” be banned?
Pholks, it’s high time we stopped letting ONE (15 year old) WHINER’s thin skin interrupt things that are so much bigger and matter so much more than hurt feelings.
Anyone with any sense would have challenged that girl, face to face, about how her self-focused complaint would hurt so many others who counted on this fundraiser.
Disgusting PC wienies.
America has raised its own generation of “Red Guards” just waiting for the cultural revolution to start.
I think the proper, intellectual response to Daniela would be ‘piss off!’.
Remember when “race relations” only mattered as to how MOPAR, Ford and GM folks got along at the drag strip?
I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong. Political correctness and idiots seem to go together.
This country is finished. Slaughtered by ‘diversity’.
We felt that the possibility of offending even one member of the Dartmouth community was not worth the potential benefits of having the fundraiser, Cathcart told The Dartmouth.
If I didn’t know how idiotic people have become, I would have thought that was a quote from the Onion.
We’d rather not have a charity event at all, rather than hurt somebody’s feelings! Wouldn’t it be hysterical if Daniela’s parents dropped dead tomorrow of a heart attack? Oops, that’s insensitive...
Is Daniela Hernandez an illegal? If so, if one college student complains that she is such, will she be sent back to Mexico, but given sensitivity training about our immigration laws so she won’t offend any Americans in the future?
Daniela isn’t the slightest bit offended...she’s just another in a long line of female control freaks, and she is going to get away with it. Why doesn’t she go after all the Mexican-themed restaurants in the area?
They might as well just give it an Irish theme—we’re not that sensitive.
Daniela Hernandez - 'Phiesta' Queen
So will they have to change the name of the “Fiesta Bowl” now?
JERRY [is redialing] Should've talked to her; I love Chinese women.
ELAINE Isn't that a little racist?
JERRY If I like their race, how can that be racist?..
Just when you think political correctness can’t get any more absurd, then an incident such as this comes along, and pushes political correctness to new absurd heights, or depths.
Isn’t a fiesta a party, a happy event, in certain cultures? Thus, isn’t it honoring such a culture, if we have a fiesta with various favorite ethnic foods?
Carried to its extreme, then we can’t have any ethnic restaurants, such as Mexican restaurants. They are offensive to Mexican Americans, according to the way this girl thinks.
Ditto Italian or any other ethnic themed places. If people like this girl get their way.
What the phuque ??
The cancellation can be summed up with a variation of the usual Leftist mantra,
“Even if only one more person died, wouldn’t it be worth it?”
