MHRC Report Not Litter Box Worthy?
I had a discussion recently questioning how our society has (de)evolved to this point. That is such a wide-ranging discussion it boggles the mind.
But where a recent Manitoba Human Rights Commission’s report goes is one such answer to the question. Tom Brodbeck accurately ascribes this report as being not litter-box-worthy...
We have taken POLITICAL CORRECTNESS so far beyond the absurd we've almost completely paralyzed ourselves.
It's cartoonish.
We have created a double-standard that is actually seen as acceptable.
As an example, apply for a government job. You are given preferential treatment if you are a native, a woman or a person with a disability. A white able-bodied male is discriminated here. And that is okay.
Reverse discrimination has swung the pendulum too far. A perfect example is a government report that cries wolf with wholly unsubstantiated anecdotes.
Our justice system (???) coddles natives because they had it tough growing up. It nurtures the 14 year old car thieves because they are afflicted with FASD. It releases goons on time served after a vicious beating death yet keeps Robert Latimer in jail.
Then I heard of some bozo MLA (Drew Caldwell - Brandon) we've elected to serve us taunting and heckling another MLA.
And I got my answer.
This is the type of people we have leading us beyond every moronic and idiotic characterization I've described here.
God help us all if we don't change things.
And soon.
