When you consider that this ad has been 'removed' from main stream I think MissB is quite possibly not reading too much into it...not if so many share her opinion...
I personally find it extremely offensive....

Re: Racism experiment for you all
Actually as I was surfing google I came across this cartoon which probably shows how the "visually challenged" view black people who are trying to make any point about race...and guess what?.... You still don't get it!
And I am sure the visually challenged actually find this cartoon funny!

I'm going to an internet translator to see what this ad says... this has GOT to be the most insidious thing I've ever seen...in recent times that is!

I just don't get it. It must be all in the perception.

Don't sweat it JG I respect your honesty and your opinion.

That black jelly baby thing.....I shouldn't even tell you all what they were called when I was growing up. Never phased me til I was old enough to know what the N-word meant.
