These people are always good for a laugh.
Of course, you're free to ask "What the hell do you mean 'these people?'"
I think Sharpton and some other modern civil rights leaders are now doing a disservice to the movement. Getting bent out of shape over silly things where the supposed racial overtones are at best debatable, it makes something of a joke out the whole thing.
It gets harder to take real racial offenses seriously when the last thing to complain about was a cartoon in a newspaper. Come to think of it, the last people to whine and moan about an editorial cartoon that got national headlines were Muslim crazies.
"'The Post should at least clarify what point they were trying to make in this cartoon, and reprimand their cartoonist for making inferences that are offensive and divisive at a time the nation struggles to come together to stabilize the economy if, in fact, this was yet another racially charged cartoon,' he said."
Yes, apologize for daring to criticize the government. I thought we had enough of this Bill O'Reily neo-fascism crap.
Of course, they're also complaining about the Resident Evil 5 video game coming out. The main character is white, and the "zombies" which are common to all the RE games are black.
The game is set in African, what color are they supposed to be? And how much do you want to bet the villain behind it all is a white guy?
