[Razorskin]

Holy shit

 

[Wynnebeck]

No ice tea and skittles?

0/10 would not give treat.

 

[TacticalFox88]

What deplorable pieces of shit.

 

[Sapiens]

South Park already did it.

 

[deli2000]

welp

 

[Mercury Land-Snake]

Unbelievable.

 

[slider]

Fuck me that's awful.

 

[Shags]

Made me smile.

fucked up on so many levels

 

[Count Dookkake]

Now this is blackface.

[Sho_Nuff82]

Saw this in the hoverhand thread and I didn't even put 2 and 2 together.

It's hard to be upset over things this minor when the guy who committed the murder is walking around free. White people trying to bring back casual racism because "really guys, it's okay, I have a black friend that I totally don't hate" can stay in their insular bubble.

 

[xbhaskarx]

There's nothing wrong with that... if it's in the Netherlands!

 

[sn00zer]

fucked up on so many levels

that is some old school racism

 

[MThanded]

Made me smile.

what in the hell...

Are you proud of that?

 

[demon]

Well at least it was done tastefully.

 

[Broder Salsa]

That's pretty bad.

 

[acrid]

Soooo....I'm guessing everyone missed the thread about blackface? This picture was all over it.

I'll just leave this here...

Wow, that's... umm....

I got nothing. Sweet leapin Jesus that's horrible.

 

[SouthernDragon]

I did the Jackie Chan wtf face in real life

 

[Slayven]

We knew it was coming.

I haven't been in that thread. I saw this on twitter.

Wow, same girl. Now someone will defend this and will call them a cunt and get banned.

 

[Whitechocolatekrispies]

Thread would deliver if the guy dressed up accidentally got shot in a struggle with a neighbourhood watch loony.

 

[Maninthemirror]

and 4000 people liked it. WTF America

 

[BocoDragon]

I'm sure he didn't dress like that to seek praise from wider society.

Outrageous costume causes outrage.

 

[minor effort]

I'm sure these people would vigorously defend themselves as not being racist.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

They need an ass whipping.

 

[Chuckl3s]

I'm sure these people would vigorously defend themselves as not being racist.

Everybody is racist one way or another.

Wow, same girl.

Not surprised

 

[BlackJace]

We'll have some in this thread, don't worry.

 

[billy beane]

Gross, but I'm not shocked. There are some pretty disgusting people in this world.

 

[Count Dookkake]

Everybody is raciest one way or another.

What's wrong with being racy?

 

[Spinluck]

Wow, same girl.

This really disgust me.

Sad that people are still this fucked up on the inside.

 

[daviyoung]

I thought Halloween was "anything goes" costume day in America?

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Everybody is raciest one way or another.

Reductionist reasoning to excuse casual racism.

I thought Halloween was "anything goes" costume day in America?

It is, for the most part. It just says a lot about your sense of humor if this is where you choose to go with it.

 

[derder]

I'm going to be honest here... if you're going for absolute shock value... at least execute well. This comes off as 100% racist.

My question to you guys: what if there were no blackface and he just had iced tea, skittles, and a hoody?

 

[Coffee Dog]

Laughed pretty hard. It's so lacking in subtlety that it almost looks like something you'd see on south park. So it works on that level, but I doubt that it's what they were going for.

Like, seriously, did they even realize that they were being that racist?

 

[Dot50Cal]

Even putting aside the racism thing, this is dressing up as someone who was murdered and making fun of it...What the fuck?

 

[MartyStu]

This is fucked up in ways beyond racism...

 

[PhoenixDark]

That's blackface. That shit in the previous big thread was not blackface. That's all I have to say.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

#joke clearly absolves them from any wrongdoing.

 

[Skeyser]

Stupid, but can't say that it shocks me.

Stupid racist people being stupid and racist, news at 11.

 

[Shags]

what in the hell...

Are you proud of that?

I appreciate offensive things, it's a shame of what happened and all but I can't help but laugh that someone would do this. Makes things more interesting in life.

I think that is one of the few things on GAF that no one will defend.

 

[Dai101]

This is awful, fucking AWFUL. Yet i have to admit i chuckled....... i'm going to hell.

 

[Featheredkitten]

Jesus Christ, someone died, a kid actually died and people are dressing as him for halloween? wtf.



I think i was happier when the internet didn't exist and stuff like this wasn't as well known about, more ignorant about the state of the world, but happier.

 

[hateradio]

It's disrespectful to go as a murder victim, but to also add blackface. Holy fuck.

I imagine that some people's brains just have a little hamster trying to run inside a wheel.

Jesus Christ, someone died, a kid actually died and people are dressing as him for halloween? wtf.

It wouldn't stop it from happening. You may still hear about it on the nightly news.

 

[Gorillaz]

With this and Juliana Hough's "blackface" get up this will be a....interesting Halloween.
