Virgie Bell's View: Sending Santa and his Ho Home. What??

Well, may I say that I believe political correctness has gone over the top? Like way over the top. Seems Australia is trying to get rid of the Ho Ho Ho as in Santa’s laugh. They say it is racist. Do you believe that? Last week some organization is in a tizzy because of, now, get this: calling a Hispanic male on a wanted list a Hispanic male. You know, the descriptions! Sucha and so tall, hair, no hair, color of eyes. etc. but then they messed it up because they called him Hispanic. The thing is he is a Hispanic Male. They are outraged that we are calling a fugitive from the law by a term they consider to be racial profiling. I absolutely give up on this. I am convinced that I will never get it. Alright, you can put White Male or Black Male on a Wanted Poster all day long, but what do we say about those of Mexican descent?

I am Just Female White. Plain old vanilla. Now I don't know where the Name Hispanic originated. The Mexican race is from a mixture of Indian and Spanish. Boys being boys and girls being girls, mixtures happen. I am just a plain old duke’s mixture. A little this and a little that thrown in the mix and I am getting a little tired, come to think of it, that I am known as just a white female. You would think someone somewhere would come up with something catchy for white. Female is sexist in nature and white is racial profiling. But back to Santa Clause. Now Santa had a lock on ho before a rapper was ever born, or a hip hopper or whatever, but they get to use the n word and the b word and get a funny little statue as the top dog in the entertainment business, so leave Santa Claus alone. What about the Jolly Ho Ho Ho Green Giant? Take a hammer and smash that TV in. Here is the thing about all of this confusion. I’m ignorant and I know it. I am the first to admit it, but I also taught my kids to be ignorant. They are just liable to slip up in front of someone sometime and call them Hispanic. The horror of it all.

SUPPORT THE TROOPS!
