AOL News poll: Currently 61% say b.o. comments "inoffensive"..

[Virginia Dare]

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.

[monmouth]

2. Whew! I thought Barack Obama was the bo..Couldn't imagine him

being offensive...lol.

AOL is lousy with them.

6. It disturbs me that his fans would defend him on this..

I guess it shouldn't, but it does.

7. Bill O was the victim of an unsuccessful leftist-run reappropriation campaign

everyone on the right is a victim of the leftist agenda

11. oh geez... please don't use BO, I thought you were saying Barack Obama

Freaked me out!

[Mythsaje]

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.
