Carleton University Students Association voted Monday night overwhelmingly in favour of choosing a new charity to support during its orientation week in September, in lieu of Shinerama, which raises money for the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Okay - so you're thinking, so what. Here's the thing about this piece of stupidity their reason. According to these university students, you know the type that should have a brain, Cystic Fibrosis is a disease that affects only white males and it isn't inclusive enough.

Umm last time I looked CF affected people from all corners of the globe, usually youth, males tend to live longer than affectd females, but this disease does not discriminate. Apparently these brainiacs couldn't look it up for themselves.

Only one student councillor there seems to have a brain. Nick Bergamini was the only student councillor to vote against the motion.

I think that it's political correctness gone horribly, horribly wrong. They're playing not just politics with this, but they're playing racial politics, and I think it's entirely inappropriate.

One a single student councillor got it right - that doesn't leave much hope for their generation. It's no wonder that Carleton is better known as "Last Chance U".
