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!

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

Maybe in the next lifetime you'll come back as a black person and then the lightbulb will come on.
