Nabisco has closed it's Philadelphia factory. Nabisco's most famous product is the Oreo cookie. Rumor has it that it will be shipping its jobs to Monterrey, Mexico.

Empty bluster, claiming Nabisco's move is offensive.
Most of what you buy has components, or is entirely made overseas, or in Canada or Mexico.
Try to open your OWN business in the USA and see what a nightmare you have. The dumbest thing an American can do is hire an employee, and this is precisely why illegal immigrants are here.

Given that neither Monet nor his wife were Japanese, why didnt the protesters demand the removal of the painting as well?
Man getting paid to do nothing complains that company paying him is unfair for moving operations to Mexico so it can afford to keep paying him to do nothing
Protest everywhere & at all times. Considering taking a picture while wearing a kimono in front of a painting? Obvious racism.

Shocking and disgusting behavior by a doctor - with no grasp on "do no harm." Stunningly arrogant.

JFP, my retweet of the kimono story last night:

Amy, My apologies. I follow you on Twitter, but rarely log in.
Here's a kimono follow up from today that includes this gem:
“You don’t understand anything about art,” one man said as he passed through. To which someone responded, “Check your privilege.”

Will I be wrong, if and when someone tells me to "check my privilege" to tell them to "fuck you and the privilege you rode in on"?

So its offical.
Feminists have gone from saying men are pigs for objectifying large tits to . . .
saying men are pedophiles for not liking big tits.
