Americans view of the Irish and Ireland can be offensive. It's too bad more Irish-American don't complain about this stereo-typical caricature of the Irish (or are even aware of it).
I know this is a prank, but even this mildly insulting by implying these things aren't offensive. How would you like it if your culture and heritage were depicted like Ireland's often is in the US?
Then there's that bloody soap, "As Clean as a Whistle" ...
This is the product of Goebbelsian/Hitlerian punks in utero. Deserving only of repudiation, marginalization, and, if necessary, resistance. Right now you're in a spiritual and emotional wasteland, and intellectually, fools. Stunning that they've had the advantage of good education; more stunning that none of it has seemed to have had any positive effect. Pathetic and sad.
Im not a conservative but I do agree that certain liberal groups do take it to the next level when they find every little thing offensive. A sense of humor can help in these matters. Im Irish as well and I think this is pretty damn funny.
I think it's pretty funny...and goes to show how silly it is when anybody feels like pushing their religious or moral beliefs on others...or trying to get government to keep their feelings from "being hurt".
I'm a liberal who's a minority, and I love this. Conservatives are allowed to say whatever they want; I don't care. That's what the First Amendment is all about. As long as conservatives' cockamamie policies are not made into law, they can rail and whine all they want, just like us liberals.
You rightwing nutjobs should read a few books and then get some real world experience outside of your insular little b.s. communities. Indygoguy sounds like some dumb*ss 20 something white guy (I'm white) who hasn't explored the world much and thinks he understands everything.
Haha, while I applaud your obviously successful attempt to troll your university in its paltry attempts to police our opinions, there's a material error in your representation of the little green guy as "defamation." If any reasonable person can determine the representation to be obvious parody or satire, there is no defamation.
its called a satire. of course it is rediculous, just like other groups like feminists getting offended by phrases like "men and women" or "policeMen" etc.
When you actually think about it, O'Keefe's issue with lucky charms has much more merit than almost all of the "instances of discrimination" that black people come up with nowadays. It certainly has much more merit than the claim the the "kosher" symbol is equivalent to "KKK". It has just as much as much merit as forcing a chain of restaurants to change it's name from Sambo's to something else.
The butt crack scene is purely intentional. The guy is being "culturally sensitive" to black culture, the culture of the man who cries oppression at every turn. What other way would there be to walk in to a meeting like this. One has to be a whigger with an Irish "flayvuh"-note the scully cap. Of course it's a black woman handling the complaint. Almost all such bureaucratic posts are held by blacks. This is so good on so many levels.
The reason this is funny is because it's so true. Black people have been using the most obscure innocuous minutia as instances of being "offended". Does everyone remember the campaign against snapple because they have the hebraic alphabets equivalent of the letter "K" on it, to indicate it is "Kosher" and black groups said this was the same as putting a KKK on the bottle. The whole political correctness, anti-discrimination is just a con game, a hustle. O'Keefe demonstrates this brilliantly.
this guy is hilarious...Obama is ruining our country and trying 2 turn us into a bunch of socialist fags! he doesn't even know how to give a speech with out using a teleprompter!
Joe Wilson was using a teleprompter to give his forgiveness and fund raising speech and it should be immediately reported to Rush and the Excrement in Broadcasting network. Did you know that President Obama is the first black president to use a teleprompter? If you're a conservative and you're talking out of your butt you don't need a teleprompter just remember two things - NO! and YOU LIE!
These guys are good and there may be a good bit of PC hypersensitivity on campus, but what is this woman supposed to do here? She listens to the complaint, takes notes, and moves to the next item on the agenda. She can't tell if these guys are serious and it would take more than 3:39 to call them out on it, so listening is most expedient.
She's a moron. and I think you must be too. She's about as useful as Michelle Obama was-in other words, this job is not necessary, it was created, like all such positions, to give a person who can't really do anything a salary
I am Italian American. It is a little known secret (but I will let the cat out of the bag) that Italian American's have a secret ceremony when a boy turns thirteen. It is rite of passage ceremony into manhood. To proceed into manhood, the young Italian American boy must proof that he is proficient in stuffing a corpse into the trunk of a Cadillac. You thought that it was only the Sopranos. That's not true.
Lucky Charms: They're magically delicious. You gotta love this kid.
apparently the NYT just linked this video, and I want to say for the record that it is the most disreputable and dishonest newspaper in the country. If you came to this video from that abomination of a newspaper, you should really migrate either to the Washington Post or ideally the drudgereport for news without the bias and awful journalism of the Times.
Not to the level of the ACORN tapes bit much funnier. The rutgers woman wasn't the target clearly but the rediculouslness of political correctness in college campus these days.
According to you the entire legal system must be a sham then.
Relying on fact doesn't make you a moron.
Thinking everyone is out to get you and that the government is making elaborate lies to defraud some crazy pencil neck menace to society like O'keefe DOES make YOU crazy though.
lol I'm a college graduate with a career. No crack for me. Too many important things going on in my life. It's funny that when you are unable to refute my argument you resort to ad hominem. I don't know if that's desperate or just immature.
@missmarie273 lol you're a college graduate who is also a fucking moron. I don't waste my time attempting to reason with fucking morons. Have a nice day with all the important things (i.e. wasting time on YouTube) going on in your life.
lol, you're incriminating yourself. You resort to personal attacks, because you have no logical reasoning to defend your rhetoric. The anonymity of social media has a tendency to foster and environment that promotes inflated egos.
Ahhhh, the bitter futile attempt at mockery from the modern lefty. Futile because this man is the only one doing the media's job, and therefore making it apparent that the media is just a bunch of paid propagandists and ass kissers who AREN'T doing the job they PRETEND to be doing. The media has no credibility as this criticism has no sting. What does have much effect though is Mr. O'Keefe's reporting on ACORN. This skinny white guy took down a whole corrupt machine. Jealousy makes u bitter.
Really, as NJ's land grant college, Rutgers has some amazing accomplishments in vegetable genetics, even getting tomatoes and asparagus named after the school. Then there's this puke that does nothing but spread racist hate.
Exactly perfect! All these so-called minorities are running around screaming harrassment with the support of that ridiculous agency, the ACLU! None of them are any more absurd than this yet the colleges and govt take this seriously!! Great job!
obviously these Conservaclowns were home schooled by imbecile parents
