No. I do not always look for the hidden agenda in most things. IMO everything need not be predicated on political correctness.

 

[Dan McNally]

Too many people, today, are looking for reasons to fill themselves with righteous indignation - that way, they can ignore all the valid reasons for which they should be indignant!

I didn't see it, nor did I read the story...but I figured it had something to do with the girl leaning on the other girl. The people that added "black or white" in front of the word "girl" are the true racists as far as I'm concerned. I'm so tired of this crap. Absolutely ridiculous. I tried to see some word that was being formed in the pose, but couldn't see it.....go figure, someone leaning on someone is racist. God forbid it's seen as "hanging around" like kids do every day

Exit question: Since this was for Ellen DeGeneres' clothing line wouldn't you think she would have approved the ads (or at least reviewed them?) Why is no one upset at her for this?

Because if you got upset at Ellen you would be labeled an Homophobe.

 

[Lew L]

Always racist!!!

Because I am a white middle class, married, straight, old man anything I say can be construed to be rasist or homophobic. So I don't say much unless we talking about :spyder2:s, motorcycles, guns,skiing, welding, fabricating, woodworking,ect. Unless I talking with my wife-----

All this PC crap causes:::

Kaos

 

[Bfromla]

Anything to cause a fuss. & if nothing more its a line from Ellen....if it wasnt racist it would be anti gay crap. All at a store that caters to the age group that needs to shop for a reason to fuss or hate someone for not fussing. ..... The "gap" is between the ears!


I wasn't there but I still care! POW /MIA VETS

I think some people should stop trying to read into things too deep "Get a life people" All I see are a bunch of little kids......

 

[Bob Denman]

Me too! :thumbup:
I think that makes us smarter than the folks, who look for the problems. nojoke

 

[SPECTACUALR SPIDERMAN]

citizen discounts and much much more.

 

[retread]

Only thing racist about that ad is the person/organisation that's complaining.

[Orange Spyder Man]

you are only racists... if you are white !

 

[Bob Denman]

I finally realized something... :shocked:
Take another look at this picture:

Can anybody tell me why THIS one is okay; and the other one isn't?
Isn't it JUST as racist? :dontknow:

(For the record: I only see a bunch of young kids... )

 

[Joe T.]

I saw it too and saw nothing wrong with it. Then I saw the story. Our society is going to crap! Everything, and I mean everything, is considered raciest. I just don't get it. I bet someone will say my comment is raciest!

You're obviously RACIST!

There, I said it! Are you happy, now?

ALRIGHT! Enough is enough. This thread has gone too far when you mention Senior Citizen Discounts!!!!!!!!!!

Turns out the two girls in questions are actually sisters!

BINGO!!!

 

[hdlongrod]

I am black and can tell you that absolutely NO ONE of any race that I associate with would find this ad offensive in anyway. There are a small percentage of people of every denomination that will find fault in everything. The challenge is to not let them turn the rest of us against complete groups of people because of their pathetic views.

Blacks don't hate whites and Whites don't have blacks... however there are a..holes on both sides
Straights don't hate gays and gays don't hate straight people.... again a..holes on both sides
Men don't hate women..... see above

etc, etc, etc..... let's just ride and leave the miserable simpletons to their feeble ways! :riding::riding:

 

[Bob Denman]

Thank you... :clap:

If you spend your whole life looking for the dog turds in somebody else's yard; you'll miss all of the Great scenery around you... :2thumbs:
