Obama “watermelon” Statue very racist and stupid
Some of the dumbest people are some of the racist people in the world and they think they're clever when they deny they're being racist.
And, why would you want to put something this ugly in front of your front lawn. The stupid statue offends at least one person living in the area. From Gawker, (("If he wants to place it someplace else that would be fine," the anonymous neighbor told the NBC affiliate. "We don't have black people in this community but I'm sure they travel this road like everybody else does. They could be offended. I don't agree with it."))
I also feel a little upset with the fact that this is in Kentucky. This shows we have a long way to go. I am all about making fun of a President and even calling them an asshole or an idiot. However, does he need to be reduced to a racist stereotype? To reduce a guy that spent years in college and beyond to a buffoonish character is offensive.
I'm one that believes we've become too sensitive to being politically correct, but this is way beyond being racist. The Watermelon has always been a symbol of racism when presented with a buffoonish black character. If it's not racist, why not put something else in his arms? How about an apple? You knew perfectly well what you were doing.
It is freedom of speech, but that also means I can call you an ignorant asshole too.
