I don't know about racist. They had a pretty good multi-cultured group for the kiddies:

Later on they added the Hispanic kid, Lingo:

Either way, lunch approaches quickly. I could really go for one of these:

------------------------------------------

MSNBC failed to cap "blacks" in their one sentence, sympathy grabbing, non fact checking, 'PC', unreliable news affiliated wire.

They deemed 'Burger King' worthy tho.

This is why it's good to always question news sources.

Don't know how reputable this newswire is so judge for yourself. My question is this: If they were fired because they were balc, why were they hired if they were black? Discuss

Discuss </font>[/QUOTE]One of the tricks of modern racism is to always hire blacks (least amount as possible) then find a reason to fire them thus the employer maintains an image of inclusion.I've seen this with own eyes,this is prevalent in the retail sector a really nasty one for visible minoritys i.e Ambercrobie ..

Exactly. Last hired, first fired has been a phrase many blacks are used to.

Gabrielle,I am not suggesting that discrimination is the exclusive province of Blacks.Regardless of one's ethnicity,race,background it is not an easy ride for anybody in life,that is generally understood.What exactly is your point?
