What an idiot, PC gone wild

An Oregon grade school principal suggested in a newspaper interview that peanut butter and jelly sandwiches might be racially and culturally offensive.
“What about Somali or Hispanic students who might not eat sandwiches?” Verenice Gutierrez told the Portland Tribune.


Yeah, peanut butter sandwiches is racism...but that's not all


In some cases, that means offering programs strictly for students of color.
The newspaper provided information about a drum corps that was set up for black and Latino boys. One parent complained that the class discriminated against women, Asians, whites and Native Americans.
Guitierrez defended the class and denied it was discriminatory.
“When white people do it, it is not a problem,” she told the Tribune. “But if it’s for kids of color, then it’s a problem? Break it down for me. That’s your white privilege, and your whiteness.”


Can you believe that? Yes it really IS labeled a problem when white people do it! It's labeled "discrimination" and "racism" and here this person is doing exactly that in public schools


Cowie said the district did not have a problem with the principal’s statements.
So does the school system provide clubs strictly for white students?
“I’m not aware of that in Portland,” he said.

Did you know serving sandwiches in schools is a matter of white privilege?

Re: What an idiot, PC gone wild

Oh yeah? What? So, it's okay to discriminate against white people, but it's not actually discrimination?

I don't really know what to make of it. I have never had a problem with anyone of another race or religion. I have always been against discrimination and segregation.

Re: What an idiot, PC gone wild

Just the other day there was a news story about a school wanting a deaf boy to change his name because when you spelled it in the sign language he used one of the letters looked like a gun. Good grief!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

How very sad a statement is this? How do we like what?? Every effort to "compensate" for an apparent discrimination has ALWAYS made the situation worse not better.

Do you know THE greatest hindrance to equality (and equal opportunity) for all the different groups (regardless of what makes them different)...other members of that group.

Numbers 13:33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

In 1965, President Johnson signed the executive order that created Affirmative Action - thus creating a permanent under-class that never before existed - and never should have. By telling the various groups that they can't make it without help simply convinced them that they can't make it without help. And this propagates a cycle of discouragement from generation to generation; creating an environment that is very difficult to escape from.

In World War 2, blacks were discriminated against and Asians were sentenced to internment camps. Today, one of these groups still feels they're victims of past injustices, the other group has moved passed their past.

Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
