OPINION: We, The Imperial, Pious and Pristine Florida Senate – We Hypocrites All

Candidly, there are many in Tallahassee that refer to Artilles as a bully and a bit of an ass.  Of course, it must be noted that he serves in an institution where kissing ass seems to be a more important attribute than the ability to kick it. But what one might also wish to consider is that the approach of condemning a man for using the “N” word is merely a full acceptance and acknowledgment of the cowardess of white people. Especially white men and more especially white, male Senators – all buying into the arguments of political correctness because it is much, much easier than to defend speech, especially speech one abhors.  Perhaps the “P” word Artilles used is an apt description of many of these Senators after all – if all they can do, when a colleague loses his cool and says things that he may (or may not) regret, is jump on the bandwagon of the left’s PC police and condemn the sin and the sinner.

The fact that Artilles never aimed the “N” word at a black person is irrelevant (and doesn’t excuse his use of it), but it does appear his targeted use of the “P” word, may well have caused his demise since it was the leader of the Senate who ultimately used the PC police to punish his accuser.   If this is the case, then the leader of the Senate may simply have confirmed the allegation by doing nothing little over the “N” but pushing harder to admonish once the target of the “P” was revealed.
