10. The Cartoon is Hate Speech
Way more upsetting than the blatant racism in the cartoon, was the violence. The violence depicted was horrible. I can hardly believe this got by ANY editor. Can you imagine if someone had put a cartoon like this about Bush in print? I think the NAACP is completely correct about this. This should be called out. There was nothing satirical or funny about it. It was racist violence depicted and it was very stupid and frightening.
