Please Be ‘Offended’ – And Vote In This Poll!

I don’t get offended easily.

Outraged, yes, when I watch CNN.

Fake News = Hate News, So Stop CNN Incitement! 

Appalled, absolutely,  when I read The Guardian.

What Next, Guardian? Posthumous Column By Ian Brady? 

But offended?

Yeah, maybe, but that’s my problem. Life is not meant to be easy and if you or I get offended now and then, tough!

Suck it up, grow up and get on with it.

That’s what I would say to an uptight, arrogant Aborigine named Ben, in Brisbane, who doesn’t like golliwogs.

The intolerant ass saw some on sale in a shop. And he was ‘offended,’ although nobody was trying to force him to buy one. He ‘complained.

How dare he?

I AM OFFENDED, on behalf of all the other, less uptight people, normal people, who don’t get as easily ‘offended’ as Bleating Ben, and who have every right to buy a golliwog, just as that Australian shop has every right to sell them!

If you agree, please follow that link and vote in the newspaper’s poll!

PS – so far, the uptight intolerants are losing, badly!

Oh, Golly! Oz Pinkos Outlaw Delightful Dolly!

Arising in fragile shape after last night’s party, I’m not exactly improved by reading the silly season news from Australia, where Canberra Hospital has removed golliwog dolls from its kiosk.

Apparently some tiresome little twit named Emma Woolley sent out an indignant tweet which sparked condemnation online this week.
You’d think poor Emma, maybe not so little, since she was at the hospital for a routine antenatal visit, might have more important things on what passes for her mind. She should be focused, surely, on plans for her baby.

Mums-to-be, as far as I know, are best advised to avoid needless stress. Stress is also bad for grandmas, like that 72-year-old Brit who dared to defend gollies.

I wish Emma well during all stages of her pregnancy but I do worry about her. There are obvious hazards pregnant pinkos should avoid. She might chance upon somebody wearing one of those patriotic t-shirts emblazoned with ‘Love It Or Leave It!’

A spokesman for Woolworths told SBS the singlets, previously available in two stores, were “totally unacceptable. “The singlet was not one we ordered,” he said. 

“It was delivered to us in error and should never been allowed on our shelves. We will review our processes to ensure this sort of error cannot happen again.  http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2014/10/13/woolworths-criticised-if-you-dont-love-it-leave-aussie-shirt

Or she might be browsing for kiddies’ song-books, and come across that appalling racist ditty ‘Baa, Baa Black Sheep!’

‘Baa Baa Black Sheep’ Deemed Racist, Sexist By Australian Child Care Centers–

Generations of tots have delighted in gollywogs, which, if they have any kind of effect on attitudes, surely encourage kids to like black people. My old teddy never made me dislike bears!

The photograph of the dolly display in the Canberra Times link : http://www.canberratimes.com.au/act-news/golliwogs-removed-from-sale-at-canberra-hospital-after-online-condemnation-looks quite nice and it looks like there’s no attempt by hospital management to force people to buy them. It’s a matter of free choice, now, sadly outlawed by craven administrators, whining pathetically that no offence was intended.

Well, their PC crawl offends me, and will no doubt offend many Australians who see no reason to be denied a choice of playthings because Uptight Emma feels entitled to impose her puking pinko prejudice on everyone else.
