		<description>re #114: I&#039;d like to think that&#039;s the case here, but it&#039;s not.

If these racist Utah folks realized their mistake and apologized after we exposed them for their monkey doll then I would have forgiven them.

But, unfortunately, they continue to sell their racist product online (I will not link to their website again) and probably sell more of this racist trash because of the link I provided in my original post.</description>

		<description>I understand as a black woman that the doll could be considered racially offensive. But not all caucasian people realize that something like that would be. I think Jaclyn makes a good point &quot;If the creators are being truthful and meant no harm then I think it is sad that not one of the creators was intelligent enough to realize that this doll could be seen as offensive and was probably not appropriate to create&quot;. Remember the old white lady in The Color Purple, Miss Milly, who told Oprah&#039;s character &quot;your children are so clean, would you like to work for me and be my maid?&quot; I really couldn&#039;t be mad at her because she was just expressing what she thought - which  I like, knowing just who I&#039;m dealing with, not the undercover racist who only says the N word behind your back - I think many people are that way. blind to those types of things, because they don&#039;t have the same frame of reference as we as black people have. Speilberg really captures that type of ignorance in that small scene. I think it&#039;s time we stop getting all angry when someone does something that APPEARS to be racially motivated and just explain how it makes us feel, when its not blatant and in your face to try and help this country heal from its past. Dont get me wrong, I know racism still is alive and well, I am not ignorant to that, but for our children&#039;s sake, Lets move on.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m an educated, professional white woman, and I am appalled and afraid to see there are so many racists STILL out there.  It is truly disappointing.  Plundercrew - I think y&#039;all should delete their bullshit comments!  Their ignorance is disgusting.  And I have to say, they&#039;ve really got it coming to them, because KARMA is a BITCH.</description>

		<description>You people look to call everything racist because you&#039;re bored with your lives. Get out and do something. And what&#039;s wrong with being proud of your race? Im white and proud of being a more advanced race, and I have science to back that statement up with facts. Nigger lovers.</description>

		<description>I ordered an Obama sock doll from David J. and Elizabeth Lawson on June 26, 2008 and have not yet received it.  I found others on the internet who were ripped off, also.

Anybody have information on whether or not the Lawsons are just stealing money and not sending out the dolls?

I will be spending ten bucks on ussearch.com to get their home address and phone number in case I travel to Utah in the near future.

		<description>why is everyone so sensitive, he said she said, who cares, quit trying to make the world correct in your eyes, someone deserves the right of free speech( even if it is racist) just as much as you deserve the free speach to be a crybaby.</description>
