Britain: Student play-acting deemed racist
Must not imitate black people or Muslims
"The Athletics Union (AU) of the London School of Economics (LSE) has been forced to apologise after members of the society dressed up as Guantanamo Bay inmates and drunkenly yelled ‘Oh Allah’ outside the college bar.
At least a dozen students attending the December 4th ‘Carol’, the annual fancy-dress Christmas party for all sports teams, chose to wear costumes deemed “racist, religiously insensitive and demeaning”. These included students who painted their faces brown and wore orange jump suits in imitation of Guantanamo Bay inmates, and others who claimed to be dressed as ‘Somalian pirates’.
After complaints from students, the AU President Charlie Glyn wrote a joint statement with Student Union General Secretary Aled Dilwyn Fisher in The Beaver, LSE’s student newspaper, which condemned the actions “of a minority of students” as “racist, religiously insensitive and demeaning”.

What's the big deal? Weird Al Yankovic has been doing jokes like this for years.

Yet another sign from a nation that is dying of political correctness. Weakness and stupidity are the fuels that will allow Britains new muslim rulers to flourish.
I believe its the people they were imitating that are “racist, religiously insensitive and demeaning”, but thats just me..
It isn't no more offensive than Mel Brooks satirizing the Spanish Inquisition in "History of the World part I"
