92. EEeeehn! GET OUTTA HEEEERE!
Thu Mar 15, 2012, 09:47 PM
Mar 2012

I have actually seen some people in a different discussion forum trying to justify this and suggest that it's not necessarily racist! I couldn't believe my EYES! My response to that was "Whoever designed and manufactured this bumper-sticker, and also the person who put in on their car were either being overtly racist, or simply are SSSOOOOO DUMB that they did not realise what a TERRIBLE choice of wording this was. Either way... they were either horrible, hateful people or increadibly dumb. I would not be proud of myself either way if I were them. And if I know anything about human nature... I'd say it was most likely a mean, racist jab... followed by a totally insulting attempt at feigned ignorance, "Oh! I didn't realise that was a provocative wording!" Yeah right! EEeeehn! GET OUTTA HEEEERE!"

but they're not racists! barbtries Mar 2012 #1
