Courtney Pong is one of the greatest human beings in this known universe. Saying this as a person whom could have been someone who heard this story from a third hand perspective on the internet.......... And then immediately thinking of the most harshest racially based or sexist based insults to call her. because I would be taking the side of some independent comedian. WHO I might have no idea as a douchebag or not!!!!!!!!!! I just hear someone censoring a comedian. And of course that's the only thing that I would take from that story if I heard it from a third party on the internet.
Courtney Pong is the oppressed speaking out in every possible way. She then found a career path she can be successful in. Then in a male dominated industry she decided to open up the theater she managed to comedians. After witnessing a primitive style of comedy that can be easily found on TV, internet, written word etc. She decided to tell this white male that there is one place in the world they are unable to speak their bigotry. For standing up for what she believes in she was belittled and ridiculed. This makes her a hero of theater in my eyes!!!!!!!! Even honoring the unspoken code amongst comedians she still proves that history will show her as the true badass she never knew she could be

While I disagree with Courtney's decision to censor speech and jokes, nobody should go through what happened to her, afterwards. Best of luck to her!
