Football announcer suspended for taco joke:
Another day, another disciplinary action at ESPN. The sports network slapped broadcaster Bob Griese with a one-week suspension Tuesday over a crude remark he made about NASCAR driver Juan Pablo Montoya. The former Miami Dolphins quarterback said during a college football game last Saturday that Montoya, who is Colombian, was "out having a taco." ESPN suspended Griese from working this week's game.

'Racist' cookie renamed:
SYDNEY - A humble chocolate and vanilla biscuit has sparked claims of racism, forcing Coles, one of Australia's leading supermarket chains, to change its name. Coles has rejected the claims, saying Creole Creams refer to "the well-known Creole cuisine that originated in the US". However, a spokesman, Jim Cooper, said the biscuits, which are part of an in-house range, will be renamed during a company-wide re-branding exercise. Among those offended are Sam Watson, deputy director of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies Unit at the University of Queensland. He told a Brisbane news website: "The word Creole comes from a period when people's humanity was measured by the amount of white blood they had in their bloodstream. "This is the same kind of thought that underpinned horrific regimes like the Nazis." http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news...ectid=10605780 |

Cops told not to say 'good evening'
What's all this then? Police can't say 'Evenin' all' any more By David Wilkes Last updated at 8:16 AM on 26th October 2009 * Comments (437) * Add to My Stories Hard work being an officer: The new dictat tells officers not to make assumptions about the meaning of everyday phrases Hard work being an officer: The new dictat tells officers not to make assumptions about the meaning of everyday phrases With his greeting of 'Evenin' all', Dixon of Dock Green embodied the values of the solid, commonsense copper. But his reassuring salutation, which began each episode of the classic police TV drama from 1955 to 1976, is one which today's real-life officers should be wary of using. According to one force's official guidelines, it could confuse people from different cultural backgrounds. Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...#ixzz0VGci1RCM |

[not precisely what this thread is collecting, but close enough]
If they feel 'offended,' you're fired Professor claims he was canned on mystery harassment charge Posted: November 03, 2009 By Drew Zahn A college professor in Georgia is whirling in confusion right now, reprimanded and apparently threatened with termination without any specific charges, hearings or evidence of wrongdoing – only the school administration's allegation that he "offended" someone. The troubles for Professor Thomas Thibeault of East Georgia College seem to have begun during an Aug. 5 faculty sexual harassment training seminar, when he questioned the assertion – as he understood it – being presented by Mary Smith, the school's vice president for legal affairs, that the feelings of the offended constituted proof of offensive behavior. "What provision is there in the sexual harassment policy to protect the accused against complaints which are malicious or … ridiculous?" Thibeault asked. According to Thibeault's description of the events, Smith replied, "There is no provision in the policy. I must emphasize that if the person feels offended then the incident must be reported to the college authorities." "So there is no protection against a false accusation?" Thibeault pressed. "No," Smith is said to have responded. "Then the policy itself is flawed," commented Thibeault. Two days later, a police chief was waiting to escort Thibeault off campus. The professor, under the circumstances, believed he was fired. Then in subsequent weeks, Thibeault was informed his contract would not be renewed for the following year and that a faculty committee had concluded he violated the college's sexual harassment policy. For doing what, for saying what, Thibeault still doesn't know. Thibeault shortly thereafter contacted the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, which immediately fired off a letter of protest. Said FIRE spokesman Adam Kissel, "The professor still has not received anything in writing detailing what he is accused of doing. … If professors can't engage in vigorous debate on college campuses, who can?" But the letter from FIRE to the school got down to business: "The Supreme Court has explicitly held on numerous occasions that speech cannot be restricted simply because it offends people. In 'Street v. New York,' 394 U.S. 576, 592 (1969), the court held that '[i]t is firmly settled that under our Constitution the public expression of ideas may not be prohibited merely because the ideas are themselves offensive to some of their hearers.' In 'Papish v. Board of Curators of the University of Missouri,' 410 U.S. 667, 670 (1973), the court held that 'the mere dissemination of ideas – no matter how offensive to good taste – on a state university campus may not be shut off in the name alone of "conventions of decency,"'" it warned the school. School officials declined to enter the conversation. "Since this matter is an ongoing personnel mater, I cannot discuss it," said school president John Black via e-mail. FIRE officials said Thibeault was notified Oct. 20 "that he had been reinstated due to lack of evidence." But then Black issued the professor a "'reprimand' for unspecified 'offensive' speech – again without presenting any notice, hearing, evidence or witnesses." "This case is far from over," FIRE President Greg Lukianoff said. "President Black has added to his blatant abuses of power by reprimanding Professor Thibeault for his speech, but never bothering to mention precisely what his offense was. Black has already retaliated against Thibeault by informing him that his contract would not be renewed after the spring semester. The bullying tactics at this college are breathtaking." In the interim, FIRE reported, Black first wrote Thibeault that since he failed to resign dismissal proceedings were begun, then wrote that a committee was appointed to conduct an inquiry, then said Thibeault had been suspended, not terminated. "EGC and President Black have utterly failed to meet their constitutional and moral obligation to respect freedom of speech, academic freedom, and due process," Kissel said. "Black has punished protected speech without any due process whatsoever, and he has threatened further disciplinary action if someone else merely sends in a complaint. Meanwhile, he has not lifted his retaliatory decision not to rehire Thibeault for the next academic year." http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=114935 |

Larry Johnson issues an apology
Posted by Mike Florio on October 27, 2009 1:32 PM ET Chiefs running back Larry Johnson, who used a homophobic epithet on two occasions in the wake of Sunday's 37-7 loss to the Chargers, has issued an apology. "First of all, I want to apologize to the fans of the Kansas City Chiefs and the rest of the NFL, Commissioner Goodell, the Chiefs organization, Coach Todd Haley, his staff, and my teammates for the words I used yesterday," Johnson said in a statement issued by agent Peter Schaffer. "I regret my actions. The words were used by me in frustration, and they were not appropriate. I did not intend to offend anyone, but that is no excuse for what I said. "I also want to apologize to all the kids who view athletes as role models. I was not a good role model yesterday and hopefully I can become a better role model. We all make mistakes, and the challenge is to learn from them. I will do my best to learn from this one as I move toward becoming a better person, teammate, and member of the Kansas City chiefs team and community." Johnson used the term "fag" in direction of one on his Twitter followers, and then told reporters on Monday to "get your faggot asses out of here." The league office has said that it is exploring the situation, and discipline could be imposed by the Chiefs, the NFL, or both. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...es-an-apology/ |

Man fired after saying homosexuality wrong
Accused of 'harassment' even though lesbian approached him November 02, 2009 By Michael Carl © 2009 WorldNetDaily A Massachusetts man has been fired from his sales position at the Logan Airport branch in Boston of Brookstone allegedly for telling a female manager that his Christian faith says homosexuality is wrong. Peter Vadala was fired, and the company says he violated a tolerance policy. But Vadala reports his dismissal came because he expressed his Christian view of homosexuality after a female manager made repeated references, as she approached him four times during work hours, to her plans to marry her lesbian partner. "At the start of the day, she told me she was getting married. I told her 'Congratulations,' and asked, 'Where's he taking you on your honeymoon?'" Vadala said. "She replied that her partner was a 'she,'" he continued, "So I immediately tried to change the subject. "I think she knew I was uncomfortable talking about it," he continued. "But, she brought it up to me three more times during the day. "After the fourth time she told me about her plan to marry her partner, I told her, 'I think homosexuality is bad stuff,'" Vadala said. "That's what I said. I wasn't rude about it and I didn't act disrespectfully to her," he said. "All the woman said to me as she left the store was, 'Human Resources buddy. You keep your opinions to yourself!'" Vadala said when he was hired he went through the company's training program, including a requirement to watch a video. "In the video, there was a homosexual man who said he overheard two workers talking. One man in the outsourced video tells the other, 'If a homosexual man hits on me, he better watch out.' “The homosexual man in the video said he was offended, but I'm not allowed to be offended by a homosexual ... I was told that since homosexual marriage is supposedly legal in Massachusetts, that I was wrong for being offended," Vadala said. A Brookstone human resources staffer called a few days after the incident and Vadala said he told the caller he wanted to resolve the matter. "I spoke to (the human resources staff member) and I wanted to resolve it. I said that for his sake, the matter needed be resolved because this manager will be around customers who, chances are, will be offended by the types of things she is saying," Vadala said. But during the course of the conversation Vadala said it became clear the call wasn't about resolving the issue. It was a few days later Vadala received a termination letter from Brookstone. The letter accused Vadala of "harassment" and described his comments as "inappropriate and unprofessional." Further, the letter charged, he was "imposing" his beliefs upon others. Vadala said the letter from Brookstone, signed by Susan McGrath, contained numerous false accusations. In a copy made available to WND, the letter reads, “You acknowledge that you then expressed to Ms. (name blacked out) that you disagreed strongly with her homosexual lifestyle and that [you] believe it is wrong. You describe it in your statement, as you did when speaking with me, as 'deviant.'" But Vadala said he didn't use that word. McGrath's letter further asserts that a sales associate "who was working with you at the time … provided a written statement indicating that while she did not witness the conversation … you did tell her later that you 'knew (she) is marrying another woman' and that you 'hate people like that.'" Vadala reports he also did not say that. McGrath refused WND's request to comment on the dispute. Instead she suggested Brookstone’s legal department be contacted. That department did not respond. When contacted about the firing, store manager Katelyn Woodard said, "You need to speak to human resources about this and if you call this number again, I'll file harassment charges." Vadala said it's clear to him he was fired for his faith. "Absolutely," he confirmed. http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=114779 |

It appears that homosexuals are becoming a more protected minority than niggers.

Maureen Dowd, entirely correctly mind you, stated that the Republican party is dominated by jews and that Romney and Ryan take orders from a jew handler called Dan Senor.
She will be apologizing by next week Tuesday. She will have to run the obligatory "Oh, G-D's chosen are such a blessing for the world. I didn't mean to insult the bless-ed tribe that cuts my check. I mentioned Israel agitating for war against Iran and seemed very opposed to it but now I fervently long and passionately wish to see another multi-trillion dollar fratricidal war for Israel's benefit. L'chaim!" |

I use words like gay to describe things I don't like sometimes, and I refer to homos as queers or fags. And I often do it publicly, and nobody ever says a word to me about it. If someone did then I'd proceed to say something more offensive right to their face. If there is one thing that annoys me more than a faggot, its people who take offense to the use of words to describe them.

These sorts of penalties are always dealt with in an indirect way, never an up front and confrontational way. For example, some commie faggot isn't going to tell a big White boy that its not appropriate to use the word gay in that way. They will instead keep their mouth shut. As long as its a public setting and not at work where they can just go cry to the boss or something, you shouldn't worry about some fag getting their queer feelings hurt. I don't.
If I ever fell victim for repercussions for not following the semitically correct line, etc letting something slip at work and getting fired, the last thing in the world I'd do is give an apology. |
