Yes, it's offensive. Then again, so is Black History Month. I can't seem to find White History Month on my calendar, I must've missed it. Maybe I should call the NAAWP and find out if they know when it is.

Yes, it's a stereotype. Then again, a lot of young kids act and dress just like they're making fun of. If you don't want to be ridiculed, try not to live up to the stereotype. I'm Italian, but I don't wear a wife beater with a big gold chain and a crucifix or Jesus head on it and drive a Camaro and say "yo" and "fuhgeddaboudit". If I did, I would expect to be ridiculed.

Racism, sexism, and stereotypes are only funny humor when they don't touch on you or people like you. That's the way it's been. That's the way it's always been. The world won't stop turning because of it any time soon.
