Complaints were filed, an investigation was launched by the “Equity Committee” at MacGill University, and the student was forced to denounce himself for his thoughtcrime:
“The image in question was an extension of the cultural, historical and living legacy surrounding people of color—particularly young men—being portrayed as violent in contemporary culture and media. By using this particular image of President Obama, I unknowingly perpetuated this living legacy and subsequently allowed a medium of SSMU’s communication to become the site of a microaggression; for this, I am deeply sorry.”
“Microagression” is a PC word that describes things no normal, rational human being would find offense in, but which send the Neurotic Left into paroxysms of outrage.
The concept of “microaggression” seems to be symptomatic of the microcephalic.
“Racism” = witchcraft.
Who was it from SNL who admitted they pick on Conservatives and Republicans more because they tend to have a sense of humor and laugh along?
The “crime” was clearly committed against the student who posted the video.
The things liberals get offended by is long. They need to develop a thicker skin and sense of humor.
I’m starting to suspect that progressives are nothing more than the secular descendants of the Genevan Calvinists and the Puritans: no sense of humor, view the world as a hostile and sinful wilderness to be tamed, ostracize and persecute any who stray from or even slightly oppose you belief system, and when somebody needs to get eliminated, accuse them of a meaningless crime that has no physical evidence except the evidence of the victim and witnesses, who have it in for the “perpetrator.”
The apology reminds me of statements made to cameras by hostages while off-camera guns are pointed to their heads.
@#3.. Lorne Michaels said it.

I don’t know…I think the video of President Stompy Foot pretty much sums it up for most Americans.

If Bush had kicked in the door the MSM would have …………… well, we all know what they would have done.
Our ancestors would be so ashamed. This guy should have told the PC enforcers to go F themselves.
A foundation should be set up to offer scholarships to any student expelled for thoughtcrime. I’d pitch in a few bucks.
Do school kids read 1984 anymore?
