Political Correctness Gone Mad
Freddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."

Augusta Country Club, Georgia
The home of the Masters competition (golf) over here. They dont allow female members. So a bunch of women folk decide that its time to protest and during the craziness of the Masters tournament, these women all truck down to Georgia and make the pilgrimage to the US golf mecca to protest Hootie (no, not the guy from the Blowfish) the President of the club and his refusal to allow women members.
Cue this guy: Quite possibly one of the bravest men alive. You asked "Who is da man?" Well, my vote goes to this crazy bastard:
Now thats what I call Political Correctness Corrected. :) Sorry ladies, I am just kidding...kind of. :P

handicapped?
One says "Sexism is a handicap". Surely, she can't blame someone for being handicapped?

I think...
... that all people who want to play golf should be allowed to enter any competition. That way, it's easier to keep track of and herd the middle-class cunts and kill them with machetes.
God, I hate golfers.

At the end of the day
the golf club is a private club, so it's up to them who they let in.

^This^
I hate it when women get on their high sexist horse about male only clubs. Ever tried turning up at a womens group meeting? You'll get looked at like you're Satan himself.

Guaranteed...
... if all these women were suddenly given free memberships, only about four of them would turn up and play a round of golf. Ever.
The rest are just there to spew bile, like the acid-soaked harridans they are, desperate for something - anything - to vent their misguided frustrations on.
There are any number of injustices in the world, many involving people in real need or real danger. Whinging because you're not allowed to join other privilaged tossers in Pringle and knock a ball up and down a field will not elicit many people's sympathy.
Actually, looking at their signs (particularly the prominent 'priceless' one) gives the impression that they wouldn't like to join the club so much as tear it down so nobody can have it, which is terribly mature.
HARUMPH.

That is
quite simply excellent. In fact, that's the funniest thing I've seen in *ages*. Thanks for posting!
