Lawyer Arrested for Kissing Employee Jan 12 9:50 AM US/Eastern WATERBURY, Conn. (AP) -- A criminal defense attorney has been arrested on a disorderly conduct charge involving kissing as a crime. Ralph Crozier, 55, of Southbury was arrested Thursday for kissing a female judicial marshal at Waterbury Superior Court on Dec. 22. Crozier said state police investigators told him the marshal did not invite him to kiss her, which was why criminal charges were filed. "This is the biggest baloney I've ever seen in my life," Crozier said Thursday. "How many tens of thousands of people in Connecticut wished their co-workers and friends `Merry Christmas' the day before Christmas?" The incident was captured on security video. Crozier said the video will prove he meant nothing sexual by the kiss, which he described as a peck on the cheek. He says the incident is an example of political correctness run amok. "It was a Christmas greeting. I had no intention to annoy or harass anybody," Crozier said. "Every one of us knew we were on camera. This was a peck on the cheek. That was the extent. There was nothing here that was weird or sexual." The arrest warrant affidavit is sealed until Jan. 24, when Crozier is scheduled to be arraigned at the Waterbury courthouse. He is free on a $10,000 bond.

The way things are going with the PC police...it'll be safer for everyone to just work from home and do teleconferencing for any and all meetings. At least then no one can get sued for sexual harassment or anything...Our lawsuit happy society is insane!! Someone needs to put a stop to this..preferably someone who understands the legal ways because I sure don't.

Someone needs to put a stop to this..preferably someone who understands the legal ways because I sure don't. The relevant question about PC in general is where did it come from. From which philosophical worldview? Of course I would argue that most of it stems from liberalism and the postmodern view of women as victims of the oppressor male dominated society. These Feminazi's have a chip on their shoulder and can't wait to dare someone to knock it off - even if it is an innocent thing. It stems from the radical feminists who lust for the power and influence they think they have never had in western civilization. Now they can't wait to be offended by the smallest gesture which they can jump on. The proliferation of PC comes from the new and radical left, pure and simple. One leader of that worldview is Hillary Clinton, our next president of the United States. Arrrrgh!!!!!

The relevant question about PC in general is where did it come from. From which philosophical worldview? Hilarious, Rick. By "relevant", you of course mean to your own one-sided arguments. From which philosophical worldview political-correctness emanates is of concern only to philosophy students and partisan loons who insist on labeling (you love your labels, Rick). Far more relevant are what conditions give rise to it and is it constructive? It's difficult to deny that PC is a reaction to real problems or legitimate objectives. Likewise, though, it's difficult to vouch for its effectiveness. But still, to suggest that feminism (for one) is rampant based on anecdotes such as this--carefully selected for their absurdity--is to exaggerate. I can assure you Rick, that each irritating story of man-hating defensiveness taken too far has at least one polar equivalent that is probably too chilling to discuss let alone attribute to "radical masculinism". Seriously, Rick, of what use is it to know that political correctness comes from postmodernism, liberals, or the left? You do realize that if you get rid of the left, there will still be left left?

If you think this is an isolated incident and the feminazi brigade is too, then you just haven't had much life experience. It's important because these radicals are attempting to change the way people normally behave with one another in the workplace. This is happening everywhere in the workplace in all industries, universities, and organizations. If you haven't been stung by this madness yet, just wait. It's coming. If there were no left left, I wouldn't have much to laugh about.

Dr. Douglas Sylva, C-FAM Senior Fellow and author of “The United Nations Children’s Fund: Women or Children First?” told the Friday Fax, "What is so troubling about this report is that it shows that UNICEF is still in the grasp of ideologues-- specifically radical feminists who are willing to undermine basic child survival in order to push their agenda. The report is not even about children.” “Every dollar spent on radical feminism-- transforming the family, reproductive rights, political agitation-- is a dollar not spent on saving children from things like malaria and starvation,” Sylva observed. According to a major study published in Lancet in 2005, 73% of the 10.6 million child deaths worldwide each year are the result of six causes: pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria, neonatal sepsis, pre-term delivery and asphyxia at birth. Experts note that none of these is given more than a passing mention in the body of the 160-page report. www.cwnews.com/news/viewstory.cfm?recnum=48594

If you haven't been stung by this madness yet, just wait. It's coming. So that's what this is about. Rick you dirty old sod--you got caught kissing some girl at work, didn't you? I have to admit that when I read this story, my first thought was not about how politically correct this women must have been, but how deluded this man must have been about his relationship with this woman. Let's face it, kissing is not a common business practice in the U S of A, not even to this "effeminate liberal". But still, if in some moment of mind-numbing jubilance (or attorney-like arrogance), I happened to kiss a female coworker she would have to have a pretty serious grudge against me to press charges or she would have had to have been such a vocal champion of feminism that surely there would have been some sign that suggested that it was not a good idea. Either way, how does one get into this situation? It inexplicable to me. Yet, you probably believe this attorney was tricked by this feminazi harlot who pretended until that very moment to be his dear, dear friend just to surprise him with her theretofore unrevealed political agenda. Amazing.

Just a few moments ago, a student from Valparaiso University called in to the Rush Limbaugh show. I didn't catch everything he said but he did say that one of the classes he was required to attend for his English class as one of many classes for the MLK day had some Feminazi speaker from outside the university. He said the speaker said that "we forgive the mothers of Clarence Thomas and Dick Cheney" blah, blah, blah. He also mentioned another class or comment (didn't catch it in full) relating to some feminist program. So this is what Valpo is serving up on MLK day. I told you valpower the feminazi's are taking over. Believe it! It's true!

It would be interesting to know if the caller is an English major or a freshman who had to go to this session as a Freshman Core requirement for the day? I remember some of the core professors requiring attendance at a certain style of program or else it was opening convocation and one or two of the focus/special interest sessions. I mean its a great idea to require attendance at the focus sessions, but don't require them to go to a certain one just because it meets your belief system. This may have been what this particular student was calling in about?

This may have been what this particular student was calling in about? He was most likely a conservative student (gasp!) since he called in to the lovable little fuzzball's show. He and his fellow student sitting next to him were mocking what the feminazi was spewing on them. You are right. Much of what is done in universities is mandatory indoctrination. And the other side is not to be found anywhere on campus. Those who dare disagree with the party line are either shouted down or legally prevented from speaking their minds or conservative speakers are simply not funded as they are with liberal, pc party-liners. For a look at just a couple of organizations that work to allow real academic freedom and fight against speech codes and other liberal methods in many universities, see: www.thefire.org/index.php/uncw_121801.php3 www.studentsforacademicfreedom.org/ www.yaf.org/

I don't doubt the conservative part, just wasn't sure what kind of student, if he/she was an English major or a freshman in the Core program...

Ever have to write a paper and use MLA guidelines? Well, they are rapidly becoming yet another PC organization. Gee, I thought it was all about learning how to write a paper and to provide good, standardized references, etc. Not now. Here's what they are up to: “Whereas undocumented workers, through their labor, contribute greatly to the economy of the USA,” read a resolution submitted by Grover Furr and adopted by the MLA: • “And Whereas they are shamefully deprived of most legal rights other workers enjoy; and • “Whereas they are super-exploited as a result; and • “Whereas the MLA is appropriately concerned about the use of language and about access to higher education; • “Resolved that the MLA urge that the phrase ‘undocumented workers’ be used in place of the abusive term ‘illegal aliens.’” This crap is beginning to sound like fingernails on a chalkboard. When will there ever be real men and women who have the courage to stand up to these feminazi's and girleymen and stop the madness?

Freakin' inclusive language...why do women always have to have their gender included in everything they read or do. Its become a very wimpy society...its time to stand up and step on this feminist need for total inclusion in everything...I mean what's next...a woman doing play-by-play on Monday Night Football or the Super Bowl?
