2. A marijuana legalization group misperceiving cattle as cookware?
Wait, that's the LSD legalization group on the other corner. Sorry, my fault... :blush:

30. I guess I don't mind it enough not to laugh ...
The visual of a bunch of cows with pots and pans out protesting for HRC just
tickled my funny bone.

Let's all laugh then, okay?

63. I don't have a daughter, nor will I (I'm 50) ... but if I did, I'd teach her to laugh
at insults and to MOVE ON. Competence is what's important,
not so much what you look like. PROVE THAT to the detractors
with your behavior, by rising above it and not making excuses.

The original were cows. I'm guessing he/she decided to pull a fast one and edit the picture after getting the heat.

All this time I thought that the HRC gang had fucked up their own campaign.

And now I find out it was Countdown that did it, after all.

'cow' is a gender slur. how would you have felt if it was a bunch of monkeys with the label 'obama supporters'?

44. The analogy was clearly about herding cattle.
It's not like he just chose that picture for no other reason. If there was some other obvious explanation for using a monkey picture, then I wouldn't have a problem with it, unless I was just out to be offended no matter what.

46. Thank you.
It was the first picture of cute cattle in a pen.

There was no gender slur meant, implied, nor intended.

However, I changed it to sheep, just so people wouldn't think there some commentary on gender.

33. Yeah you're right...
I just can't frickin stand it.

I'm fine with COMEDY in a COMEDIC setting but there is a time and a fucking place, and during a campaign in which women have had so much sexist BS flung back and forth, and when Clinton's supporters are obviously feeling the sting of it more than most... this is just so OBVIOUSLY not not NOT the time OR place.

And only the most idiotic of the idiots could manage to somehow not "get" that.

26. weak? i'm being a lot nicer about it than i could've been.
there's enough sexist and racist crap being flung around GD:P at this point that i think it behooves all of us to think before we post. 'cow' is a gender-based insult. since this is a protest being done largely by women, can you possibly see how your posting a picture of cows might be considered offensive?

i want us obamatons and us hillbots to be able to live with each other once this mess is over and done with.
while the 'sheep' image will offend hillary supporters, at least it removes the gender-based component.
and besides, 'sheep' is what came to mind for me anyway.
i like sheep.

The media has been biased from day 1. It has happened to Edwards and now Hillary. Because it's not happening to your candidate you can be like this? You give your candidate a bad name by being his supporter and acting this way. I'll have to remind you when you get up in arms about Scarborough not kissing Obama's ass.
