‘A Massachusetts school principal is renaming “St. Patrick’s Day” with “O’Green Day” in an effort to be “inclusive and diverse,” while some parents are blasting the decision as “stupid” and illogical.
Lisa Curtin, principal of the Soule Road School in Wilbraham, Mass., decided to change the name to ease discomfort that some students might have in celebrating St. Patrick’s Day or Valentine’s Day — which last month was renamed to “Caring and Kindness Day,” according to parents with children in the school…’
The stupid mealy-mouthed cow needs to be put in stocks and pelted with rotten eggs. Minimum. That something so unutterably effing dumb and arrogant can be in charge of a school almost beggars belief.
Leftists/”progressives”/socialists are not welcome here. Pay for your own soapbox.

To paraphrase Ann Coulter – public schools are the reproductive organs of the left.
It’s a good description, K. Some mass sterilizations are urgently needed.
I don’t see how you can get more “inclusive and diverse” than everyone and their dog pretending they’re Irish for one day a year.
Exactly, James.
Neurosis worthy of psychotherapy, that is the hallmark of the lefty ruling elites now, and it ain’t pretty.
Meanwhile, Obama imports Eid-al fitr day, bleed a few goats. Nice.
Time to take our culture back.
It sure is, Dallas. Way past time, in fact.
It’s not about inclusion and diversity. That’s a lie .It is another deliberate attempt to obscure , change and secularise history.
St Patrick( by legend) was of course a Christian missionary.Ireland was pagan. It became a bastion of christianity from where missionaries renewed Europe after the dark age pagan invasions. ( St Columbus and all that)
Remove the Christian aspect from these historical church festivals,and you can secularise society. That is the aim here. We can’t have children thinking that their history and culture is based on Christianity ,can we?
And it’s the same with (St) Valentines Day, Christmas and Easter.
By the way St Patrick is not exclusively Catholic, he is the Patron Saint of all Ireland, and Irish Protestants celebrate him and this day also. The Queen Mother used always present the Irish Guards shamrock at a special parade to mark the day too. I wonder who gets that role now?
I find it intriguing how schools in the west can celebrate all sorts of other peoples festivals….diwaly, lantern or dragon boat or put on “experiences ” of other cultures for the children but when it comes to our own,we trash them and insist on changing them.
“..but when it comes to our own,we trash them and insist on changing them.”
But of course, kowtow. It’s a necessary component of cultural genocide, one the USSR practiced in the territories it controlled.
The words “cultural genocide” need to be used more often, because that is in fact what’s happening.
p.s
Our flag bears The St Patrick saltire, along with St Andrews and the Cross of St George.
So every day our flags (UK,NZ,Aus) fly we celebrate a common history,culture and heritage. Long may it last.
And that’s why the push to change the flag. Further obfuscate and deny our history.
Couldn’t agree with you more.
And thereby they create a new history and culture, in their own image.
KG. A better title for this story would be … Would PC even exist with women like Mara in the workplace?
Quite so, Mara. And we know the answer to that!
I don’t for one minute think the woman in the story is representative of all women, but there are far too many of her kind around.
Indeed, KG – it’s a well known fact that many more women than men are left/liberal leaning, and on that basis make up a majority of those who push the PC agenda.
Ann Coulter again:
“It would be a much better country if women did not vote. That is simply a fact. In fact, in every presidential election since 1950 – except Goldwater in ’64 – the Republican would have won, if only the men had voted.”
So Ann Coulter doesn’t vote and thinks likeminded women shouldn’t vote either? I wonder if she stays at home that day darning socks and making the menfolk sustaining food and drink, the better to assist their arduous mental processes. There is some truth to her utterance but in reality so many men are now castrated by PC that gender matters less and less. I see evidence that women, not wimmin, are growing balls as well as attending them in pretty frocks. So shoot me down. Go on. :popcorn
In fact, Mara, I think you’re right. Coulter using the word “women” perhaps has been misinterpreted. She actually said “wimmin”, which means “liberals”.
“… are growing balls as well as attending them in pretty frocks.”
You’re not confusing your pre-op transgender ‘women’ escorts are you, Mara?
“two tits and a …” todger.
Regardless, the fact remains that the voting patterns of women are what keeps liberals in office. (and is the main enabler of the PC disease)
See, I was going for appeasement and you just jumped right on in there with a dirty nuke, didn’t ya? :popcorn
The Devil made me do it.
Have you heard the Liberal Women in the USA are going to stage a sex strike and withhold sex in protest at the Catholic Church’s position on contraception?
The liberal men are relieved they no longer have to have sex with liberal women.
Gantt Guy, I’ll give you fucking appeasement and KG you are no bloody better. :rant
So two tits and a tuft equals er, um , stoopid? BTW I love the little moving lady emoticon things. :popcorn :popcorn
:whoop
(whisper) Don’t poke the bear, KG(/
:rant
It’s nurses, Gantt. They can be formidable, but since this Wabbit is blessed with one for a wife, he’s learned some handling tricks.
(mainly, extreme tact and caution for two days after night shift)
at the turn of the last century – John Dewey and his cohorts met and drew a plan to over take the excellent US education system- they followed through – and look at it!
It is time to TAKE IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Carol=-CS
and to changi St Paddy’s Day erbage is totally out of order-
Happy St Patrick’s Day – My friends!
from this 1/2 Dane- 1/4 IRISH – no hyphen – American – US citizen!
My Bad!
Carol-CS
Happy St Patrick’s to you too, Carol. From all of us unreconstructed males.
change
verbage
Time to go to bed- loved my Honey Jack Daniels though
Carol-CS
Yeah Honey JDs is a nice drop, but you should probably have stopped after 7 or 8 of them!
I’m sooo tempted to put a comma after the first and second words of your reply to Carol, Gantt…
But that would be mischievous, wouldn’t it?
Casting aspersions? I was tempted to put “(for the ladies)” after the word “drop”, but that would likely constitute “poking the bear”!
It would be brave, to say the least!
Not that ladies in CR have ever been lacking humour, mind you. We’re very lucky with the commenters in here.
LUCKY err, how?
Well, we don’t have any lefty trolls, the ladies are (mostly) charming and intelligent and the males are (almost) all chivalrous and considerate.
Well hi there !!!
“(almost) all ”
I’ll bet she wasn’t expecting this –
“What’s worse, Carlyle called the renaming of the holiday insulting and “unfair” to Irish Catholic students for whom the holiday might have special meaning.”
I read that she wasn’t available when asked for comment, i hope either she came to her senses or someone with brains told her to stop digging and making a fool of herself.
She deserves whatever ridicule and contempt comes her way, I reckon, RWT.
