Comedian John Cleese Criticizes Political Correctness on Campus
The Ministry of Silly Walks would probably be considered offensive by some college students today.
Watch Cleese talk about PC culture on campus below.
Breitbart has more:
Veteran British comedian and actor John Cleese is disturbed by modern society’s rampant hypersensitivity and thus avoids visiting college campuses due to political correctness, he said in a recent video.
In a video for Big Think, which can be seen below, the Monty Python star said he, too, is often offended by things, but added: “I’m not going to expect someone to stop that from happening, I should simply speak out about it.”
“Sometimes when people are offended they want someone to come in and say ‘stop that’ to whoever is offending them,” he said. “There are some people I would wish to offend… The idea that you have to be protected from any kind of uncomfortable emotion is one I absolutely do not subscribe to.”

I need my wubby!
Oh, really John? Maybe you shouldn’t have supported Obama so vociferously, then. It’s his SJW types that “get in your face” on college campuses and elsewhere.
Freaking hypocrite.
