I see the Cult of Victimhood is alive, well, and metasticizing in our streets.

Good thing it was a banana and not Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Well, it seems that in the context of the march, she took the officer's banana eating to imply an analogous racial slur relating black people to apes.

Reminds me of middle school. None of us dared to eat a banana in front of our buddies because it was so "gay". That lady needs to grow up or preoccupy her thoughts with something more important.

Think of how offended the group might have been if they were Asian-Americans who have lost touch with their cultural identity (I've heard the term "banana" -- yellow on the outside and white on the inside -- used for Asians in much the same way that "Oreo" is used for blacks who aren't "authentic" enough).

"...she took the officer's banana eating to imply an analogous racial slur relating black people to apes."

If she's that sensitive, she should probably not be out marching on the blacktop.....

So, did the mayor tell the police officer to stop "monkeying around" ?

What a baboonery!
[for those too willing to walk in footsteps of that woman: the first known use of the word 'baboonery' was by Sir Winston Churchill in 1926 : "foul baboonery of bolshevism". Thus it rightfully characterizes BEHAVIOR and not any other aspects].

Some people go out of their way to find something to be offended by.

If one looks long enough, one can find something.....

This woman probably wants to sue aspirin manufacturers, cause to use their product you have to pick cotton.

This is hilarious.

I've known some people to get bent out of shape for silly reasons....but a BANANA?

Hahaha...Ye know I thought when I started reading this that the Police Officer may have been doing something salacious with the banana. But someone who sees someone eating a banana and immediately thinks..'That person is insinuating that I am an ape' needs to see a psychiatrist.
