A CHARITY fun run in aid of a Lancashire children’s hospice has fallen foul of the PC Brigade because male participants taking part will be running in women’s clothing.
An organisation that helps transsexuals has asked the police to investigate the event as a hate crime!
Where will it all end? Will pantomime dames be the next targets for these humourless, PC killjoys?
I’m willing to bet that the objection to this event hasn’t come from transsexuals themselves but from brain-dead, middle-class, loony, lefty, liberal do-gooders who have nothing better to do with their sad lives but spend their time looking for offence where none is intended.
I hope that this event to raise money for sick children goes ahead and that members of the transsexual/transgender community turn out to express their contempt for the PC morons who are trying to sabotage it in their name.
What people fail to understand is that political correctness, far from fostering understanding and tolerance, actually has the opposite effect.
