STUNNED schoolkids were asked to design a politically-correct PIZZA which would not offend anyone.
Pupils were told to discuss which toppings might upset religious groups, veggies or people with allergies.
In response, The Sun’s culinary experts have cooked up the most unPC pizza in Britain, with ingredients to offend everyone.
Greg McLaughlan, 40, whose daughter Chelsea, 12, was in the lesson, said: “It’s ridiculous to tell kids what they can put on pizza. It makes race relations more difficult.”
But headteacher Jan Charters defended the lesson at Oakwood Technology College, Rotherham, South Yorks – where a fifth of pupils are Muslim.
She said: “We frequently ask students to look at all manner of other view-points so they gain a full understanding of a topic.”
Obviously none of you all have had to order pizzas for a college group. There’s the meat eaters, the vegans, the vegetarians. You have to have all 3 ‘cause the vegans won’t eat the cheese on the veggie pizzas.
Then you have soda, diet soda, and juices which come in regular corporate brand and the natural, unpasturized stuff for the tree hugger crowd.
I don't know if you intentionally used put that word, but it sure fits.
Spotted owl, I hope. They're the tastiest.
What no rattlesnake or tarantulas? — you’re gonna offend our Texas Allies.
Whew, what a relief -- our cats are safe. We have nine of them, and not one is white.
“..a politically-correct PIZZA which would not offend anyone. “
Perhaps the lesson here was that no matter what one says or does in this day and age, it IS going to offend someone.
Ever tried to get a group of 3 or more to agree on pizza toppings? You usually end up with crust and tomato and very little else.
Nothing to it -- just do like I do -- take them out -- it's easier to see what you're doing.

There are 2 problems here:
The first is Muslim immigration.
It is idiocy to allow Muslims into any free country. They will and are using the laws of free countries against freedom. One of the foundation stones of freedom is having a people of good will, who are committed to making freedom work. Islam is obviously not a religion of “good will”. Muslims WILL and ARE using government schools and every other rule of law of free countries against those who cherish freedom.
The second is government schools.
The education of a child is fundamentally the transfer of moral, ethics, and values, and these morals ethics, and values are never non-neutral. Government schools by trying to be all things to all people are diluting the Judeo Christian values that are essential to freedom. In essence, government schools are contributing to the destruction of freedom.
Solution:
1) Put an immediate stop to all Muslim immigration. Encourage those who are not citizens to leave.
2) Privatize universal K-12 education. In this way, those of us who do value the Judeo Christian values ( essential to freedom) can fully and thoroughly teach these values in an unadulterated way.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Exactly! Besides that there are Jews who don’t eat pork and Mormons who prefer sodas without caffeine.

The fundamental problem here is Muslim immigration. It is time to put a complete end to it, and encourage all Muslims who are not citizens to return home.
Please read my post #89.
Islam is NOT a religion of good will. Muslims are and will use our laws ( and our government schools) against us.
Also...because government schools attempt to be all things to all people ( impossible, by the way) they are undermining and destroying the Judeo Christian value system upon which all freedom rests.
^^^^^^^^^^^
Frequently? What a pathetic excuse for education. Better look into what else they offers their students;
. . .and contrast these efforts against the what the Muslims are teaching their kids about the culture they are now a part of. Don't think they are learning how not 'to offend'. . .
/Political Correctness = tyranny. It IS the totalitarian velvet glove - with a fist inside./
It’s clearly obvious that they’re doing that every time you hear of some cries of discrimination, whether it be from cab drives, or checkout clerks.
I agree with your solution and any muslim who becomes a citizen and participates in an act of terrorism against our country should be tried for treason and given the death penalty. And there should be harsh consequences for anyone who shows support for terrorism by doing things like funding terrorist organizations or dancing in the streets after innocent Americans are killed by their compatriots.
There are no moderate muslims, only stealth muslims.
Now if they had put the evil green peppers on it that would be another story.
Pizzas have to have cheese and tomato sauce. What you have is a pizza crust with some veggies on it, and frankly I can’t figure out why you would omit the best part. ;)
That poses an interesting problem. What if a good, healthy, red-blooded Jewish kid is double-dog dared to eat pork? How to resolve that dilemma?
I bet having an exchange student was a fascinating experience!
Not really. There is no ham and no watermelon.
They knew that if they put ham or watermelon on it there would REALLY be a price to pay.
I believe he can bow out of a double-dog dare with his honor intact. If he’s triple-dog dared there will most likely be a fight.
;-)
Come on, gotta have a little dolphin on there.
