44. If this was in response to my reply to you in that thread,
I do not accuse you of racism. I raised the question of racial caricature, because I have been seeing more exaggerated portraits of Arabs recently than I remember in the past, and I wonder if it bothers anyone else. I think that I would be upset if I were to see similar depictions of blacks, and the "Would I find this justifiable if I were similar to the target?" test is one I often use to check myself.

I apologized if I should have made it clearer that I was not accusing you and failed to do so.

I enjoy your cartoon posts, and hope that they will continue.
