An Oregon grade school principal suggested in a newspaper interview that peanut butter and jelly sandwiches might be racially and culturally offensive.

| "Chuck Barber, who also offers boys’ drum corps at Vernon and Faubion schools in Northeast Portland, approached Gutierrez last year to start up a lunch-time drum class for black and Latino boys once a week. This year, it’ll expand to two classes a week, to accommodate new boys as well as those with experience. At least one parent has a problem with the the class, saying it amounts to “blatant discrimination and equity of women, Asians, whites and Native Americans.” “This ‘club’ was approved by the administration, and any girls who complained were brushed off and it was not addressed,” the parent wrote anonymously. Gutierrez denies that any students were turned away from the drum corps, and vehemently rejects any suggestion that it is discrimination to offer a club catering to minority boys. “When white people do it, it is not a problem, but if it’s for kids of color, then it’s a problem?” says Gutierrez, 40, an El Paso, Texas, native whose parents were Mexican immigrants. “Break it down for me. That’s your white privilege, and your whiteness." |
Yeah, mamacita, let me break it down for you -- two wrongs don't make a right. But three wrongs make a left-ard like you.
Let Dr. Gutierrez know how you feel. I've included the reminder about who invented peanut butter.
What about the jelly ? You racist !
Is there a ‘white boys only’ drum corps somewhere that I am not aware of?
With reality like this it has become just about impossible to do satire.
But...but...but peanut butter was invented by a...black man.
Huh?
Amazing isn’t it
The principal is an idiot like the principal from the New York City school that banned playing the Star Spangled Banner at her school
Rye bread or whole wheat bread anytime over white bread, unless it’s Italian
I don’t get your huh? Are you questioning that it was invented by a black man?
“E pluribus unum”? Used to be the national motto. It actually meant something, but some just had to prove how holy they were!
Agreed. But, none of them are pita!
Let them eat frijoles and tortillias....... in the basement
Just when you think leftists can’t get any nuttier (in this case peanuttier), they go ahead and do something like this. In a sane world Ms. Gutierrez would get fired within 24 hours time. But obviously, she should never have been hired in the first place.
If they have a mouth then they can eat. Case Closed.
Another liberal hears the “racist dog whistle”.
“If you hear the whictle, you’re the dog”.
You're right, because nobody stands up for the guy that invented jelly, only peanut butter. Hmmm...
Now its E unum pluribus
“”What about Somali or Hispanic students who might not eat sandwiches?” Verenice Gutierrez told the Portland Tribune.
“”
weird, I wonder what she’d say if she saw my Mexican born co-worker chowing down on her sandwich? Or my Sudanese born co worker who also eats sandwiches for lunch break?
Ahh, Portland, I knew ye well. I spent six years there, during the time that the city was picking itself up, after the lumber mill crash. (Once again, a city that built its entire future on one kind of industry.)
But between “the cowboy governor” having been elected back into his seat, after a brief span of time, Congressman Earl Blumenauer mucking up the works in competition with Sen. Ron Wyden, and now this “educator”, who is paid with YOUR TAX DOLLARS, it is quite evident that I have no reason to go back there, ever again!
I shall miss the grandeur of the Multnomah County Library’s main building. I shall miss the mall located between the inbound and outbound light rail from Pioneer Square, with the parking garage off its southeast corner, that was a favorite of those who would take “their final dive”, right at lunchtime traffic. I will miss all those misguided ‘utes’ that hung out at Pioneer Square, in the afternoon time of ‘shift change’, from the corporate world, to the night denizens, and their asking you for change, but with eyes of a more predatory nature. I shall not miss the weekend drumming circles at the parks near the Burnside Bridge, when the wind wafted just right, would make all downwind a little hungry, from whatever it was the drummers were burning in that park. I shall miss the opportunity to see the famous/infamous Tonya Harding, all of five foot and gilded skates, giving skating lessons to children, in the mall near the Oregon Convention Center.
See ya later, Portland! No tourist money from me to you!
