guys kissing is part of diversity? sick. barf.

It has been hours and hours and hours since my only other posting today.
That’s because I was at this machine pulling out what little hair I have left.
It isn’t the computer of course. It’s the other stuff I just HAVE to download to try and fix and make faster etc. And then restore cos there’s an error. Not all my doing either I want everyone to know.  And the experience reminds me of something TimO wrote here at BMEWS not too long ago. And it says all there is to say or can possibly be said forever more.

If they don’t fix it, they wont be able to:
Study why the fix caused problems
Hire more people to manage the fix
Hire people to fix the mistakes fixing the fix
Mount a study to plan for a better fix
Hire people to blame those who did the original fix
Train new people for the new tech that develops since then
Move everyone to a new project they can fix
...you know, like everything else they muck up....

Now that I have that out of the way … I will get to my post and then say good night.  It’s late.

Is there any real merit in this bit of nonsense?  I ask you.
Is it just me, or is the world getting even dumber then I originally thought?
Or maybe it’s just getting more PC. Which in my book adds up to the same thing.

The new police ‘diversity’ course that uses videos of Christina Aguilera and Susan Boyle
By MAIL ON SUNDAY REPORTER

Police officers are being sent on a bizarre training course that uses video clips of singers Christina Aguilera and Susan Boyle to explain issues surrounding equality and diversity to staff.

Those attending also have to listen to a specially made-up fairy story about witches so they can better understand how to combat prejudice and discrimination.

And in a session about minority groups and harassment, the staff see images of bullying, gay kissing and a transsexual.

The equality sessions have been devised by Tayside Police in the East of Scotland, a region which is mainly rural but includes the small cities of Dundee and Perth.

The day-long course includes a session on ‘communication, stereotyping, prejudice and assumptions’ which involves staff watching a two-minute clip of Susan Boyle making her debut on Britain’s Got Talent in 2009.

Participants are reminded that judges on the ITV show initially wrote off Boyle’s chances because of her appearance.
They are then advised not to make lasting judgments about people based on their first impressions.

The same session also requires staff to listen to a four-minute fairy story called The Witches Of Glum, which is about the rivalry between the elderly King of Glum and a disfigured witch called Groga.

Last night, Conservative MP Philip Davies said: ‘The courses sound drivel – a combination of the blindingly obvious with the utterly ridiculous.
We have a situation where forces claim they have no money for proper policing but at the same time they spend thousands
on equality and diversity projects.’

Tayside Police said the course was mainly for civilian staff and only a handful of officers had attended.

I’d throw up I think if I had to sit and watch a couple of queers kissing. GAK! The thought alone makes my gut churn. That’s disgusting.

Good evening all ...
peiper out.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
