14-year old White Girl gets Death Threats for wearing McCain Shirt

14-yr old Catherine Vogt

So, this 14-year old White girl wore a John McCain T-shirt to school just before the election. Being that since Obama has taught us all about the gift of 'diversity' and 'tolerance', you'd think the girl and her views were welcomed with open arms. Not hardly! She was berated with insults and death threats from her pro-Obama classmates.

As the media keeps gushing on about how America has finally adopted tolerance as the great virtue, and that we’re all united now, let’s consider the Brave Catherine Vogt Experiment.

Catherine Vogt, 14, is an Illinois 8th grader, the daughter of a liberal mom and a conservative dad. She wanted to conduct an experiment in political tolerance and diversity of opinion at her school in the liberal suburb of Oak Park.

She noticed that fellow students at Gwendolyn Brooks Middle School overwhelmingly supported Barack Obama for president. His campaign kept preaching “inclusion,” and she decided to see how included she could be.

So just before the election, Catherine consulted with her history teacher, then bravely wore a unique T-shirt to school and recorded the comments of teachers and students in her journal. The T-shirt bore the simple yet quite subversive words drawn with a red marker:

“McCain Girl.”

“I was just really curious how they’d react to something that different, because a lot of people at my school wore Obama shirts and they are big Obama supporters,” Catherine told us. “I just really wanted to see what their reaction would be.”

“One person told me to go die. It was a lot of dying. A lot of comments about how I should be killed,” Catherine said, of the tolerance in Oak Park.

But students weren’t the only ones surprised that she wore a shirt supporting McCain.

“In one class, I had one teacher say she will not judge me for my choice, but that she was surprised that I supported McCain,” Catherine said.

If Catherine was shocked by such passive-aggressive threats from instructors, just wait until she goes to college.

“Later, that teacher found out about the experiment and said she was embarrassed because she knew I was writing down what she said,” Catherine said.

One student suggested that she be put up on a cross for her political beliefs.

“He said, ‘You should be crucifixed.’ It was kind of funny because, I was like, don’t you mean ‘crucified?’ ” Catherine said. (But this young girl has no real idea of exactly how not funny this is. Her classmates will grow up with even stronger views than the ones they have now.)

Other entries in her notebook involved suggestions by classmates that she be “burned with her shirt on” for “being a filthy-rich Republican.”

Some said that because she supported McCain, by extension she supported a plan by deranged skinheads to kill Obama before the election. And I thought such politicized logic was confined to American newsrooms. Yet Catherine refused to argue with her peers. She didn’t want to jeopardize her experiment.

Being 'pro-tolerance' is a one way street. It means you have to 'tolerate' the feelings and views of liberal minorities, but they can piss in your face when they don't like yours. Basically, "tolerance" has always been this way. It's just more popular now that a mulatto (half-white-half-black) person is in control.

Fourteen year old kids don't understand the concept too well just yet, so it must be their parents and the media that teaches them the laws of "tolerance". Just think, these kids will one day be grown up assholes! This is just pretty Goddamned pathetic!! I feel sick...M
