Citation for airline story:

http://www.msnbc.com/local/ksnt/m270363.asp?cp1=1

The banning of American flags was all over the news about a month ago. The company, under great pressure, eventually reversed itself and allowed Americans to display the flag of their country on their desks.

The hospital cross flap occurred about two years ago (before 9/11 actually). I don't record a citation for every news story I see, but this and similar outrages have been dutifully reported.

As for the student who had to apologize for using the phrase "Black Friday," I know the guy personally. He is now a Presbyterian minister. This incident, along with thousands of other cases of PC bullying, didn't make the papers.

I said: "College students are brought up on disciplinary charges for voicing politically incorrect opinions in class."

To that, Garth replied, "Good."

Garth, do you actually think it's good that someone is brought up on charges for voicing his opinion?

It is a common tactic of pro-PC types to insist that anyone who disagrees with them is a hater, a Nazi, a Klansman, and so forth. People without an intellectual argument to make usually do end up resorting to name-calling.
