Racist picture on the Observer?

[KillerKat]

ok bud then you tell me what it was meant to be taken as. Im not racist one bit but since im not socially autistic i can look at this picture and clearly see that it refers to cam as a monkey. I know im not the only person that thought this right away.

And not a shot directly at you bro no bitter feelings

It's saying Cam IS THE BANANA though. I looked at the picture one time and clearly saw that.

Being offended by that is a weeeeeee bit of a stretch, dont you think?? Its like me being offended by a picture of a white guy eating lance crackers...

Don't know about others but that never crossed my mind. I thought it was saying he was the top banana. I would bet the vast majority thought something similar.

I wish threads like this could just be deleted. No disre to OP, but seriously? When will people gt over this PC crap?

[TNPanther]

Not offended at all, different strokes. There used to be a popular saying for someone who was a leader "Top Banana" same as "Big dog, head honcho, big cheese and Chief" That's the way I took that pic. ~ Peace!
