    You can't fix stupid. Should I not use "colored pencils" then? Any one that finds offense to the sign has severe mental and IQ issues.

    Its not a matter of -if- something can be misunderstood as racist. Its a matter of common sense and cultural sensitivity.



    And of course you shouldn't use "colored pencils" thats, racist... everyone knows crayons >>> colored pencils.

    LOL. Fuck sensitivity. If a business caters to a specific group of people they will speak the language of that group. If someone too ignorant to know the slang of the business they are planning to use gets offended, too bad. They can go get their appletinis and spritzers somewhere else.

    Wasn't saying you could. I'm simply implying that people are gonna take offense to it just because there's so much hype about race. You can blame press, greed, and stupidity for this one. People are gonna play the race card wherever they go in hopes of getting attention or money. So, I still agree with Mr. Ninja...he had it coming.

    And colored pencils is going too far. You know that.

    Ohhh so push sensitive race issues under the rug while others wear the race card on their hat and shove it in others faces, wonderful idea. It would appear those cards are taped over their glasses and they can't see what the hell they are doing. I have no tolerance for racism, none what so ever, BUT I also despise those that use their race as a crutch because they aren't capable otherwise.

    At least colored pencils is the same word as colored people. People that are too illiterate to comprehend the word COLORS has nothing to do with race are fucking ignorant. Show me a racial segregation sign that says colors vs. whites. Good luck.

    If I grew up before the 60's I'd use which ever water fountain had the shortest line. Would blacks refuse to use it after me? Would they give me shit over it? I'd hope not or that would put them on the same level as a white racist.
