The internal contradictions of the Left, illustrated
October 6, 2008
Apparently, “think of the children” trumps “ethnic diversity”
in Chicago:
A 15-year-old Chicago high school sophomore was told to remover her replica [Chicago Cubs] jersey at school because the dean thought the last name on the back, Fukudome [a starting OF for the Cubs - ed], sounded too much like a profanity.Ronny Cox, Andy Dick — and a million Asians with the last name Dong — could not be reached for comment.
So, to sum up how things work in progressive America: the word “terrorist” — used to describe a white terrorist
– Whereas disallowing an actual Asian name belonging to an actual hometown player because that name sounds too much like a profanity? A sign of intellectual stewardship.
BECAUSE YES WE CAN!
Does anyone else’s brain hurt from trying to reason this one out?
