No Cross Burnings, Eh?

This affects nobody important, so let’s point and laugh like we’re at a Republicans Just Diagnosed With Parkinson’s Parade, no? A conservative group from a Canadian University (AKA arts & crafts for Canucks) has scheduled the GOP’s court jester, Ann Coulter (AKA liberal penis Rubix Cube) to do some barking from a podium on campus. Presumably this is University of Ottowa’s annual “opposite day,” put in place in 1965, offering alternatives to reality to make sure kids are given checks and balances to actual learning. Despite this, the Academic Vice President sent over an email to Coulter, you know, to make sure she’s had all her shots and that her particular brand of comedy isn’t contagious. Just in case she says something crazy. Here’s an excerpt:
“Our domestic laws, both provincial and federal, delineate freedom of expression (or “free speech”) in a manner that is somewhat different than the approach taken in the United States. I therefore encourage you to educate yourself, if need be, as to what is acceptable in Canada and to do so before your planned visit here… Promoting hatred against any identifiable group would not only be considered inappropriate, but could in fact lead to criminal charges.” (Huffington Post)
Might as well give a homeless guy with a 20 year-old case of PTSD a gallon of water and a gram of coke and dare him not to piss on cop cars. In fact, we’ve got a cell all warmed up for you, Skeletor with Tits. It doesn’t have the stone slab you’re used to, but the toilet seat will be up, just how you like it. Every time the Belligerent Blond Banshee opens her mouth it’s a hate crime of some kind, the difference is we here in America find her antics cheeky and harmless because she shot herself in the foot two days after 9/11. If she wants to keep running the marathon, that’s gravel in her wound, not ours.
“I was hoping for a fruit basket upon my arrival in Canada, not a threat to criminally prosecute me,” Coulter said… She questioned whether every speaker booked at the university receives a similar warning, or just the conservative ones. (National Post)
Nope, just the ones who are famous for saying that Canadians “are lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent.” Hilariously true, but you’re not supposed to say it. Canadians are a pretty identifiable group in Canada. You can’t throw a fucking rock without hitting a baker’s dozen or so, and that’s why I vacation there once a year. Word of warning, though: Being a McCarthy sympathizer (yeah, I read that book), I would be damned sure on the meaning of “fruit basket,” because you don’t want a gaudy wicker monstrosity from Crate & Barrel filled with gay cancer chocolate truffles and Yankee Candles. “Thought that’s what you’d want, Martian overlord,” probably wouldn’t cut it in that situation.
University of Ottawa students started a “Ban Coulter from Campus” Facebook group and forbade signs advertising the talk from being posted in a main campus building.
Arrest those bastards! The socially and politically deranged are an identifiable group. At least they are down here. So much for your campus tradition of “restraint, respect, and consideration.” Canada’s stupid because Ann Coulter is basically a walking minstrel show. Some people find them unpalatable, but those are the people who haven’t learned the difference between “laughing with” and “laughing at.” Put down the finger paints and the self-righteousness and join the frat party downstairs. You might learn something. No uggos and no randos, though. We have enough Alabamans.


It’s February, and you know what that means: Greasy fried chicken Black History Valentine’s Day Bangin’! What? Didn’t you hear? Fried chicken and collard greens aren’t racist anymore, which is good because some assholes in white robes have been throwing buckets of Colonel at my house ever since I brought that black chick home, and it has been attracting coyotes, who have in turn been absconding with the neighbors’ cats.
(Jesus diaper-shitting Christ, put it away! Sumbitch, now I’m going to have nightmares.)
