We're not in Kansas anymore...

[Mr. Douglas]

When you are a racist, everything is about race.

[Menehune56]

There is an unfortunate resemblance but I sincerely doubt it was intended by the magazine or the reporter.

[To Hell With Poverty]

Well yeah...it’s pretty clear from the article that it happened in Oklahoma.

;) ;) ;)

I know the fix!

BAN all photos in all newspapers, magazines and online! That’ll stop all of this obvious racism! /s

“My first initial reaction was I almost spit my coffee out when I first saw it,” Lawson said.

Which is why people are meant to use their BRAINS and LOGIC to figure out what reality is, and not be a slave to your emotions. Otherwise, we are just a dogs barking at shadows, which exactly is what this guy is doing.

"One local woman said she is taking the picture to the NAACP." I have a hat for her:

[PAR35]

Looks like a Klan outfit to me, but with the cross being replaced by a clock on a heart.

[RegulatorCountry]

If I saw that photo without knowing it was supposed to be a tin man costume, I’d likely think it was a klan hood, myself.

[Vaquero]

Didn’t read it. Watched the video. Saw the picture before it was described and immediately thought

A). Tin Man (clock on chest....the heart)

And

B). Some jerk is going to see a klan outfit and have a $h!tfit.

[Homer1]

If the tin man had a heart he wouldn’t have joined the Klan....

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Enough of this garbage. It’s just enough. Either kill us or shut up. Literally. Just shut up.

[Snickering Hound]

Only $20!

This is what one black resident said about the cover:

'I wouldn`t have thought of [the KKK] when I first looked at it. No, but I didn't think of the tin man either, but I didn`t see nothing wrong with it,' Ardmore resident Tasha Kinney said.

My thoughts exactly. See -- you can get agreement among the races sometimes.

[TomGuy]

Too many snowflakes are going around trying to finds things to be offended by.

[drjimmy]

I happened to see a KKK gathering once—it was on the property next door to a place I was visiting—and there were little kids dressed up in costumes that looked just like this. It was scary, and not in a funny Halloween costume kind of way.

[Sans-Culotte]

When Gene Autry’s mayor, Kyle Lawson, saw the cover his jaw nearly dropped. “My first initial reaction was I almost spit my coffee out when I first saw it,” Lawson said.

I shudder to think how this story would have turned out if the things that nearly and almost happened had actually happened.

“As bad as we hate to say it we live in a world where you have to be cautious,” Rushing said.”

No, actually you need to do the exact opposite. Carry zero racism, be yourself, and if someone gets offended, that is for them to deal with. It’s false to make it your problem when the hypersensitive snowflakes freak out.

[DugwayDuke]

Interesting. I graduated High School from Ardmore High.

[MWestMom]

Far too many people with far too much time on their hands...

Next up...a picture of the Wicked Witch’s Flying Monkeys.

Then, ALL democrats will be upset.
