[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 886364, member: 52972"] TJR, Racism IS an emotional issue, but that does not mean that it should be dismissed !! Yes, many whites will dismiss it as the ususal "Playing the race card", or that they are overly sensitive. That can be true in some cases or perhaps many cases. However, that does not make the photo any less offensive to many blacks. If you were to show that photo with the wording on it to a large number of blacks, I am sure the vast majority would find the photo offensive. Some would get angry, some would be upset and others might consider it stupid and childish, but they would never the less be offended...Yes, for blacks racism is a very emotional issue the only difference now is that they don't just walk away and ignore it, they tell you when they are offended. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
