  • I heard a speech a couple days ago about the value of "free expression" in western civilization, after receiving a "benediction" from a negress "chaplain."

    The increasingly draconian social penalties for the frank expression of old-fashioned ways of thinking do not seem to trouble these "elites."

    What's particularly bad is that these social penalties do not only influence those on the political Left.  Rather, those on the political right increasingly are found to conform to these "standards."

    Quote from: examiner
    The teacher who used the word Negro said she was just using the Spanish word for the color black during a language lesson in her classroom. But the student she directed the word at apparently felt differently and reported her for using the word Negro.

    The teacher, non-tenured junior high instructor Petrona Smith, 65, was fired from bilingual PS 211 in the Bronx in March 2012. Smith herself is black.

  • This is ridiculous!  The fact that such an injustice can happen (with no outcry) in America says that America is over.

    You know, the teacher probably thought she was safe calling on the black girl to translate "negro" because SHE was black herself. Who would accuse a black woman of being racist against blacks?

    Moral of the story: Don't comfort yourself with reasons of common sense. Common sense no longer applies. Watch yourself, and always be careful. Don't give them ANYTHING to use against you.

  • What would have happened if she said blanco?
    "Be kind; do not seek the malicious satisfaction of having discovered an additional enemy to the Church... And, above all, be scrupulously truthful. To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

  • If she'd said, "blanco" her principal would have found some other means to dismiss her.  The NYC-DOE "officially" laid off 2000 teachers before the start of the 2012/2013 school year.  Building principals were unofficially ordered to "excess" a certain number "for cause" to bring that number closer to 3000.  Those laid off are better off than those fired "for cause."  Being fired from a NYC public school pretty much guarantees the end of one's ability to get any job in the field of education.  This unjust firing was in reality, a "perk" given by Mr. Mulgrew, the union  pres. to administrators to dispense with troublesome teachers.  Troublesome meaning anything from truly bad but tenured, therefore, legally impossible to fire, to someone you just don't like for any reason at all.  In exchange, the principals are expected to  re-elect Mulgrew for another four years.  The NYC- DOE is run by the Jєωιѕн-Masons, and they don't hide that fact.  A look at any NYC public school entryway will reveal an 8×12sign that actually has the masonic symbol and lodge number.
    Not all NYC public school teachers are masons, but it is a requirement for one who wants to advance into educational administration and the  associated politics.

    When you are Catholic you can't help but have something that will be used against you. Our Lord and the saints and martyrs always had many things for people to use against them.

    Right, so good luck getting a decent job as a teacher (as a religious man) in any outfit run by ʝʊdɛօmasonry.

    And now the SSPX is such an outfit.

    That is precisely the intent.  A dumbed down society, an illiterate populace, is less likely to ask questions and gladly accept whatever is handed to them by their corporate or political masters.
