Unspeakable Truths

A British columnist, Rod Liddle, writes for The Spectator about true things politicians cannot say. It is the usual litany of things minorities do in Britain that frankly they shouldn't do, and about which public figures and the media are not permitted to comment in a meaningful way. If it is any comfort, we have the exact same problem here, maybe even worse.

Right now our MSM is doing its best to ignore the spreading "knockout game" of unprovoked black on white violence. Imagine how they would howl if the roles were reversed, if it were whites beating up on blacks. See what Jay Nordlinger of National Review writes about these hate crimes.

Political correctness has run amok when we cannot respond to social problems for fear of offending members of pressure groups.
