White males are constitutionally unable to understand any aspect of
racism, sexism or discrimination. It's true. They can't dance,
either.<br>
<br>
I still think it's a bad idea to continue this Political Correctness
path that we're on. <br>

Mr. Rumelhart -<br>
<br>
If victims of bear/cougar attacks or descendants of
fourth- or fifth-century Roman ancestry feel disrespected
by the University of California (Berkeley) mascot . . . or
the Washington State University mascot . . . or the
University of Idaho mascot . . . like us, they are free to
exercise their first amendment right and loudly (and
proudly) express their discomfort with those mascots.<br>
