I was in a grocery store today and nearby was a black couple buying rice and they were complaining about Uncle Ben have been removed. "Who was bothered by him and Aunt Jemina? They were real people and now we have no mascots of our own anymore, how does that help anything?"
As a white male you don't want to know how many times I have been called racist for pointing out that's exactly what's happening. They are doing the same thing to the aboriginals in Canada. Taking away ALL THEIR IMAGERY from public spaces under the guise of someone being offended. Fuck that! I'm offended. I wore that Indian chief proudly on my chest as a young child playing hockey. We fought hard like the warriors we knew they were. I hate how people are so distracted with beer drinking white dudes like me who hold absolutely NO WORLD POWER and want the same equal opportunity world for all as everyone else. /endrant
Take away all positive role models, replace them with barbaric gutter trash, watch their culture implode. This isn't by accident. Why do you think people like Ben Carson are villified?

whats sad is there was a real Aunt Jemima, the picture was based on a real woman. Her family is saddened by her removal.
This pisses me off to no end. Bring back Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben! We should start a campaign.
Jemima is still on the shelves here.
This is just like how a lot of native Americans were offended by whites being offended by the Washington Redskins.
I'm certain that the VAST majority of people offended by any of this are those who aren't even in the demographic in question. liberals....
Exact-a-mundo
VERY white liberals at that.

Everybody call Everyone racist for Everything. It's dumb.
This is what is going to push the Black vote to the Republicans.
The straw that broke the camel's back.
