Politically Correct Idiots Look a Gift Horse in the Mouth

"A group of California women aged from 51 to 84 posed for a racy calendar to raise money for their local firehouse, but the town turned down the cash as too hot to handle."

Why actually did they turn down the money?  The town’s attorney speaks.

"It would open us up to workplace causes of action such as sexual harassment and hostile environment and things of that nature,” Freeman said. “This is the kind of thing that just can’t be done in the workplace ... It runs the risk of offending people."

I’m trying to visualize the offensiveness of the photos, and the “people” it would offend.  Were the women using the hydrant wrenches in ways beyond the means, the ladders, or was it the hoses?  Of course the town won’t think twice about taking the money coercively.

“Town Declines Cash from Calendar Girls."
