I don't consider it racist, but its in very poor taste and shows the bad character of those guys. There isn't anything funny or worth mimiking about the death of Trayvon Martin.

It's racist if it offends just one person who says it's racist.
So, yeah. Probably.

Poor taste. Whether it's racist would depend on the motivation of the people doing it, and how can you get that from a photo? You'd need someone skilled in social interaction to speak with the men involved.
Many people do consider the use of blackface makeup inherently racist.

Or that one person could be Al or Jesse or Louie in which case it really doesn't matter whether they are right or wrong. Just keep those donations coming in. |

But yes many have been become rich thru politics. |

Well I think most pundit types and figure heads are worthless. Al and Jesse are just two of them.
I figured out racism as a kid. I know what it is. I dont really enjoy discussing it really. I guess it makes for interesting political fodder I suppose.
I sometimes think that like gun laws, there's enough awareness. We don't need new laws. The g'ment rarely works that way.

I figured we would have some Georges and Trayvons this Halloween! I have no idea if they are racists but I'd say they are inconsiderate, immature and yes it's poor taste!

Racism is anything but trivial. Just ask those whose livelihood depend on keeping it alive. |
