Who was racist? The boy in the headdress or the Deadspin reporter?

We live in a culture that sees offense in everything.

The libs are winning. And that’s offensive.

The liberal left is the most bigoted intolerant collection of people you’ll ever meet.

If you don’t see the world through their narrow little lense they will shame you, ban you, arrest you if they can…

I heard plenty of commentary yesterday that this kid’s family has everything it needs to sue this pathetic Deadspin or whatever they call it outfit into oblivion…

I hope they do just that.

When there’s no racism to speak of, then just make some up knowing there’s plenty of "V"irtuous people that will see it.

I personally believe it is evidence of the great job this country has done eliminating real racism that so many crazy’s on the left are out in force every day trying to create racism where none exists.

Half black, half red. Representing the colors of the team, not races.

Now consider…if you have to point that out…

Haven’t we decided that black face is racist?

That has been “decided”, yes.

It shouldn’t be, but that’s today’s paradigm.

Now, who do you think was wearing blackface?

Similar to taking black people off of rice boxes and pancake boxes, while white people can stay on boxes. Sounds more like a plan a white supremacist would come up with.

They are not real black people.

This has to be the silliest comparison.

@e7alr

His face paint was half and half, not an uncommon native style. And news flash, no one owns the “color” black. It also seems that red and black are two of the colors traditionally associated with the Chumash tribe, who apparently his Grandfather is a serving elder in. If you look at the picture of him at the game, you will see he is wearing a black long sleeve shirt under his red Chiefs jersey, color coordinated to match the half and half paint he is wearing. This seems to be nothing more than an angry hateful bigot, with a chip on his shoulder looking to be offended.

That’s exactly what it is. And to specifically only use the black side of his face in the article screams volumes.

Yea this reporter was dead wrong.

We live in a world where math is considered racist.

Is this really that surprising?

[tnt]

I can’t believe anyone would write or publish that stupidity.

Who wouldn’t think that face paint was team colors? Like, who would go to a NFL game in black face? It doesn’t even make sense.

No more stupid than anything else written in the likes of Newsweek, USA today, NYT, etc

Is this the face of an avid fan or a racist?

You need to reexamine your values.

And so does Carron Phillips.

You miss my point.

I think it’s insane for anyone to think that little kid went to a football game in black face. You can tell right away he’s wearing a team outfit.

And I can’t believe an editor would let that article in.

Crazy.

[tnt]

And why would anyone go to a game in black face? Why would anyone THINK anyone would??? It doesn’t make a bit of sense.

The modern media.

Well when you have a narrative, in desperate need of a supporting example, some times you just have to get “creative.”

You are right. I missed your point because I misread it. Sorry.

Editors haven’t been doing their job in a long time. I’m not sure news outlets even have editors anymore considering what gets aired and printed these days.

24/7 political news creates a constant need for endorphin triggering headlines and outrage.
