Political Correctness – The right to see your accuser? Nope.

No – if you are a guy, you are often judged to be automatically guilty without the ability to defend yourself with Political Correctness being the prosecutor, judge, and jury. From Charlie Martin at PJ Tatler (emphasis mine):

My Sexual Harassment Reprimand

Back in the early 90′s, I was teaching at Durham Technical Community College while I was in grad school.

One day, one of my students, who normally wore sweats and jeans — as I did — came in wearing hose and heels, a cute denim skirt, and a white-and-aqua sweater with silver threads in it.

I said “Nice outfit!  That’s a pretty sweater.”

The next day, I was seeing the Dean in Charge of Spanking Lecturers.  Seems I’d said “something offensive”.  She couldn’t tell me who had complained so I could apologize, what I’d said, as that might identify who had complained, but that I’d better apologize tout suite and I’d better watch myself.

Remember that when you hear about Herman Cain.

The American system requires the presumption of innocence, verifiable proof, due process, and a judge (and jury).  Political Correctness? 

An innuendo.
