“Ghettorize” shouldn’t have been a factor
Thursday, November 1 at 1:08 PM

O’Neill Quinlan of Centennial writes:

RMN reporter Erika Gonzales October 20th article pointed out that some two bit self absorbed member of the Commission on Higher Education was offended by “ghettorize” remark CU President Hank Brown made in his efforts to end squabbling over higher-ed funding.
Well, I am offended that a supposed educational leader would rather personalize and trivialize an issue as important as this massive funding shortfall than seek pragmatic solutions.
As to all dedicated citizens and elected officials seeking a solution to higher education funding please continue work the issue and not be distracted by those who would rather than fish for supposed insults to gain press space promoting their “outrage.”

There are people who get up in the morning, eat a hearty breakfast, then do nothing but search diligently, high and low, for a reason to get offended, then proclaim it from the highest tower all for the purpose of getting noticed. The people who think every little thing can offend them in some way are nothing more than a grandstanding, insecure pain in the ass to everyone else around them.
