Sensibilities have changed, and I am sure that you would know better than to dress up like Buckwheat today. Again, why offend Black people? Why do something that would have even your Black friends shaking their heads?

Because you save the First Amendment by using it.

So go ahead and offend black people, brown & white people, & Muslims & Mohammed too.

Offend them all.

Why? Because you told us not to.

You are missing the point.

The question is not "Why offend Black people?"

The question is: Should careers be destroyed, just because thirty years ago, someone did something that might have offended black people if they had noticed?

There is a huge jump from the common sense

"Do not offend when there is not need to do so." to

"Destroy the career of anyone who ever might have been shown to do something offensive."

Halloween is all about being something you’re not.

I had no racial intent and as far as I could tell offended no Blacks.

Yea, things have changed alright....for the worse IMO.

I am a Christian straight white male over 60 and from the South. Per the tolerant Progressive left it is now acceptable to disrespect, degrade, insult, and even persecute me. Why would I give a flying fig if something I do or say “offends black people”?
