AOL News poll: Currently 61% say b.o. comments "inoffensive".. |
|
I'm not going to link to it, it disgusts me so. bo's comments were at least as bad as Imus's if not worse. He was basically implying that in his view black people are less than human, not much better than animals, and he was shocked that they acted in a civilized manner in a restaurant. WTF is WRONG with people?
:wtf:

1. Is this some silly, Freepable/DUable online poll? |
|
Not worth getting worked up over if so.
Actually, we should be glad this is even being discussed, frankly, I thought it'd be something to be chuckled at by a few DFHs.

12. Well, first, it's AOL |
|
where humanity on the internet goes to die. Plus, well, 61% probably see nothing wrong with it because, well, they're white and THEY'RE not offended.
Stupid.
It was a remarkably racist comment and anyone who doesn't see that is a moron.
