You have completely lost your grip on reality, seek some profession help. Stop reading your unions liberal propaganda. You are saying blackface was alright 20 years ago but at that time anyone who wasn't a complete moron knew it wasn't ok. Scheer's opinion on same sex marriage was basically everyone's view back then, even the looney left when they were a little less looney. "Shit on woman's rights"? Woman's rights has not been an issue for decades until the Liberals brought it up during the election so they could scare simple people in to voting for them. The whole "blackface" thing is a bit much. We have conservatives who are either blatant racists or voted for a blatant racist making a big deal about a guy dressing up as Aladdin 20 years ago...irony just died! Go eat some more Tide pods.

Yeah it's no wonder there's a huge political divide in North America with this stuff. And I won't hide the fact that I never considered Halloween/Dress up things as being severely offensive until I heard the reaction to the blackface thing....mainly because I literally have "white" friends married to spouses of African Canadian heritage who have dressed up with blackface and never once was it considered offensive because it was Halloween. Things that registered a 1 out of 10 on the offensive scale 20 years ago are now registering 10 out of 10 as if people knew back then how hard society was going to turn on the politically correct spectrum. And I'll admit my own ignorance that I always viewed dressing up as another culture during Halloween as more of an honor towards the culture rather than a disrespectful gesture. I admit I definitely have a lot to learn about that stuff. Just not sure how you undo what people did when it wasn't considered near as offensive then but now people literally want careers taken away due to the current stance on it. Yet some still don't want to see why it wasn't near as big a factor as a political opponents views on items that were addressed in this country in the 1980's and 1990's like abortion and LGBTQ rights.

If you are dressing up as Micheal Jackson, are you trying to mock black people? Not really. If you're a Ninja Turtle should turtles be offended?

IMO good. I wasn’t a fan of how he handled himself by throwing Cherry under the bus so hard the next day. Clean both out and bring in new blood and revamp the segment.

Simmons posted what he blatantly said he couldn't confirm. Ron MacLean tweeted to him saying what Simmons heard was things they were discussing re: the fallout. So while it couldn't be confirmed the person involved admitted there was talk around it. I'd say within a few weeks Ron is either just on Sunday or gone completely.

So has Jess Allen been fired for saying hockey players are white boy bullies Of course not, in today’s pathetic politically correct world discrimination is wrong ... unless it is against white males in which case it is encouraged.

What's racist , discriminatory or prejudice about saying an entire international sport is composed of only one race who are inherently bad?

So according to you, in your sentence, white hockey players are inherently bad? If she had said basketball players grew up as inner city hood rats shr would have been fired already and keep in mind the sentence I just typed makes no mention of race. The double standard that we have witnessed the last week is beyond brutal. Accountability only applies to right wing white men.

Preaching to the choir Fair enough, you may want to apply an appropriate emoji or even better a Sheldon Cooper sarcasm sign in the future
