A North Carolina official was removed from his position Tuesday for refusing to refer to a black woman using her doctoral title during a virtual meeting.

Tony Collins, a construction contractor and former member of the Greensboro City Council’s Zoning Commission, was ousted by a unanimous city council vote for ignoring Carrie Rosario’s request to call her “Dr. Carrie Rosario,” according to the Greensboro News and Record.

“Prot” in the movie “K-Pax” (sorry, Kevin Spacey)-— the

insane Prot— who thinks he’s a spaceman (with some unexplained capabilities)-—first 26 seconds “how many Drs are there on this planet?”

During 25 years working for a world famous hospital I worked for a number of men (and women) with *both* “MD” and “PhD” after their names. But when seen alone “PhD” means nothing to me.

If the man were truly “privileged”, he would still have his Council seat and pay NO consequence for being rude. Duh.
How is it “privileged” when the stupidest people are in charge? Aren’t the virtue signalers and the judgmental intolerant the real privileged class?
But Mom, the King is naked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw one cup that said “Ask Me About My Pronouns!”

There's gotta be comedy gold with this stuff. 'If I guess correctly, what do I win?'

ignoring Carrie Rosario’s request to call her “Dr. Carrie Rosario,”

so it wasn't a request, it was a demand

>>Remember when Barbara Boxer demanded to be addressed as “Senator” rather than “ma’am”, <<
yet she didn't call the General, General.

Anyone insisting on being called Dr has an insecurity problem, especially if the title has nothing to do with the public sector job he/she is doing or the political office he/she holds. This woman sounds like thoroughly unlikeable and obnoxious race baiter. She is not a physician. She has a PHD in public health.

What else?

However, until I find out who he voted for I won’t feel bad or happy.

But I’ll go out on a limb and say that he did t vote for the same guy I did.

Willing to bet that no one likes her. No one. Anyone that deals with has to deal with her and they’re probably not happy about it.

It would be nothing more than a gaggle of bouvier, pretentious clowns.

Victor Davis Hanson has a Ph.D. in Classics—which may not be a hard science but is not an easy field to get a Ph.D. in (you have to be able to read Ancient Greek, Latin, German, and French, just to read the ancient texts and the most important modern research). Not everything outside the hard sciences is BS.

Maybe 35 years ago there was a New Yorker cartoon (back when that magazine had good cartoons), where the maitre d' at a restaurant is talking to someone making a reservation. "O.K., table for three at 7 p.m. for Dr. Jennings. May I ask if that is a medical doctor or just a Ph.D.?"

His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, CBE, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular, and His Majesty, the Last King of Scotland ...

... earned every one of those medals and decorations on merit, just like all his titles. Or so I heard.
