CULTURE Official Petition to Change the name of Cracker Barrel Has Gone Viral
Conservative post ^ | 7/10/15

Posted on 07/10/2015 12:49:35 PM PDT by Impala64ssa

Liberals and all their race-baiting have found racism in everything.

All that is about to change and the tide is about to turn thanks to Ryan Koch from Des Moines, IA.

He believes that the restaurant chain, Cracker Barrel should be changed to Caucasian Barrel. Mr. Koch has started a petition on Change.org demanding the establishment change their name. Did I mention it’s hilariously awesome and mocks the race baiters out there?

I say all of us European Americans start protesting C****er Barrel. It uses an offensive slur and it is deeply offensive and mocks our long and proud heritage.

Mr. Koch’s take on the absurdity of race in America is spot on.

The name is offensive, their logo stereotypes European Americans as people who sit on chairs and lean against what appears to be a bourbon barrel, claiming we are all a bunch of alcoholics. Sure, they’ll SAY it’s a “cracker” barrel but everyone knows crackers don’t come in barrels, they come in bags and boxes!

Change the name C****er Barrel to Caucasian Barrel. After all, white people should have something to be offended by, too!

The name of that soft serve chain, Dairy Queen, is also offensive to nursing mothers.

As any sensitive and enlightened 21st Century man can tell you, "Dairy Queen" is a pejorative term used to describe a woman who chooses to nourish her child naturally. I'm sure that anybody with even a shred of decency can agree that that insulting term has no place on a roadside ice cream stand.

The term “cracker” is from Zithromax Gaelic “craicer” which means someone who likes a pint or two and like to talk.

The Dubliners had a song: “The Craic was good on The Isle of Man”

It meant that they had a good time.

My recently departed Father would say to me: “come on boy lets see how the Craic is at the pub”

Cracker is not racist. It’s cultural. My culture: Irish and proud.

Someone on that site posted... “I feel that to fully participate in the American experience, I need to be offended by something on totally frivolous grounds that defy reason.”

That’s brilliant and summarizes everything!

Sorry I don’t know how Zithromax got into the auto correct but it’s crazy.

Craicer is still a man who likes a pint and to talk politics

don’t forget about the Ole Miss Rebels!

Heck anything the Left deemed "offensive" was purged long ago. The flag and Colonel Reb have been gone and Confederate Drive has been renamed in an effort to appease the unappeasable. Of course just the name "Mississippi", as in The University of Mississippi, is offensive to some so you can bet that a name change is in order. Maybe something like The University of the State between Alabama and Louisiana or James Meredith University or The University of Whitey Get the Hell Out. The Black Bear won't do either...henceforth it is the Ole Miss African American Bears.

“What be goin’ down, cracker?”

Well, now I don’t know. You haven’t told me what race you are self identifying as today so I don’t know whether that was a micro-aggression or just friendly. In post racial America how am I supposed to react to you if I don’t know your race?

The word “Black” and/or “Brown”, and the word “White” ...with be changed to the “B-word” and the “w-word”....

Note: The B will be always be capitalized in the B-word and the w will always be lowercase in the w-word to show a proper act of submission, contrition, apology and general groveling by w-word to B-word

They had to change their mascot from a rebel and the students (sheep) voted for a black bear.

The Arkansas State Univ. had a mascot of some kind of Indian and they changed it to a red fox.

Pretty sure there aren’t too many black bears near Oxford, MS.
