(18,944 posts)1. I always wonder
what goes through the heads of people who choose to do such things.
Are they just that clueless? Are they trying to be controversial? Are they just insanely stupid? Or is it just racism.
Because...WHAT. THE. FUCK.?

(29,131 posts)5. I commend the reporter for not naming the owner in the article
Its easily found, however, but I dont have time to look right now. Id like to know more about this person, who is so oblivious that preschoolers would end up in blackface. For photographs. WTAF?!?
To my earlier comment about the reporter
Im glad the owner didnt get named in the article because it would have given the RW media something to squawk about, deflect, and even claim bias due to the race of the reporter.
Naming the owner will occur - thats certain. Just glad it didnt happen there.
