I loathe political correctness — and double standards

From Brain Terminal:

Two words. At Bucknell University, that's all it takes to get dragged into the President's Office for a half-hour discussion of word choice. And these aren't offensive words, at least not out here in the real world. But Bucknell apparently has a different definition of what is and is not acceptable. On August 29th, the Bucknell University Conservatives Club sent out a campus-wide e-mail announcing an upcoming speaker: Major John Krenson, who had been in Afghanistan "hunting terrorists." Those two words — "hunting terrorists" — resulted in three students being called to Bucknell's Office of the President by Kathy Owens, the Executive Assistant to the President.
