I read the same editorial in the Portland Press Herald where Pitt’s column is syndicated. I generally enjoy his work but this week I think Leonard was reaching for something to write about. The issue here is selling food if you are a grocer and having your heritage recognized and validated if you are African American/Italian/Asian or Irish… Put them all together and lets face it, retailers look for reasons to get people into the store and buying their products. A local Chinese restaurant here in Portland links daily specials to current events. Great! Any excuse to save a buck is fine with me. If they want to put fried chicken on sale for African American Heritage month and potatoes and beer on sale for St. Patricks day, just let me know when the sales going on and I’m a buyer! I’m Irish too so potatoes and beer don’t offend me. I think by and large we have become way too sensitive about this stuff and the PC police really don’t have a lot to say. I do want to thank Leonard for introducing me to this forum however. Other than that, this particular column of LP’s was a waste…
