Just listen to it.

It's like calling Purple Haze a gay song because it sounds like Jimi Hendrix says he's going to "kiss this guy"

So wait; the card talks about black holes and it equals african-american women? What the fuck?

So, does saying the word "hole" refer to a woman now? They claimed the recording in the card sounded like "black whores" but that's beside the point, if you mishear something, it definitely isn't anybody's fault but yours.

 

[lolzgreg]

Yeah. This is the kind of really ignorant and stupid shit that pisses me off.

 

[JayB]

They are definitely hearing what they want to hear. Very obviously says holes

Although I thought that was what Jimi said for half of my life , never questioned it haha - I mean the dude was always tripping balls

The "r" definitely is not in there you stupid yellow-eyed cunt - I think what's most pathetic is that these people don't seem to even know what black holes are, considering the association they make despite how clearly it's stated that it's about the fucking solar system

At this rate of regression, we'll be back in the fucking Dark Ages.
Any excuse to pull the racist card, and people will do it.
Cannot believe we let fucking retards like this share our oxygen

 

[derfbonker]

this kind of thing really makes me sick. It's just people complaining, just to complain. There is absolutely nothing even remotely racist about that card. They should not pull it because of the bitching of a few people that need to have there hearing checked, they SHOULD pull the card because its stupid, but that's beside the point. People in America need to pull their thumbs out of their asses, and stop catering to every person that gets their feelings hurt.It's the pussification of America, and someone needs to put a stop to it.

Wow...

This reminds me of the first time I heard Evanescence's "Bring Me To Life" I thought she was saying "Leave Me To Rot." I liked the song better that way, actually...

Back to the story - the NAACP fails at life, does anyone take them seriously? I mean, irony abounds, if you refer to African Americans as "colored," it's been considered a racial slur for longer than not, but it remains the word used in their namesake acronym.

 

[lolzgreg]

The most racist thing about that card is that one of the characters is named "Hoops"

I'm surprised they didn't get called out on that!

 

[K Odell]

The "r" definitely is not in there you stupid yellow-eyed cunt

Thank you so much for that remark. I mean seriously that makes my being pissed off at the NAACP all worthwhile.

Listen to them discuss their thoughts. They can't even put together a cohesive arguement. Its no wonder some black people are ashamed to be black at times. These are the people who give the awesome black people a bad rap. That sounds slightly racist of me probably, but I swear its not mean't to be.

Thanks again Marcus, that made my night.

But yawl, it be sayin whores! Were the fry chicken at? Oh shit, call the amberlamps!

BRING AMBALAPS!

Dam Christians.

 

[James Murphy]

yeah, they should really pick their battles a little better.... before they become the "organization that cried wolf" one too many times, and even the people they are charged to represent write them off as ridiculous.
