The Biter Bit
16th September 2011
Professor at his first lecture of the semester to Canadian university students: “Despite what you may have heard elsewhere, everyone is not entitled to their opinion. ‘All Jews should be sterilized’ would be an example of an unacceptable and dangerous opinion.”
Student misunderstands, and launches attack on professor for being anti-Semitic. When the context was explained to her, she refused to relent: “The words, ‘Jews should be sterilized’ still came out of his mouth, so regardless of the context I still think that’s pretty serious.” (Anyone who says “Jehovah” will get stoned!)
So a professor urging his students to be Politically Correct gets busted for being Politically Incorrect. We live in the Irony Age.
More here. This is going to provide right-wing humor for at least a year.

The right is very easily amused if the actions of one clueless Valley Girl can provide so much fodder. I’m sure an index card with “See Other Side” written on both sides would keep them occupied for at least a month.
