Quoted from daveyvandy:My dad's a radiologist and one time showed me a hand x-ray from when a tire exploded while someone overinflated it.
Speaking of X-rays, I also had a tire explode and hit my knee. Here's the X-ray of my knee replacement:
So, the mods are gonna leave that racist, black kid eyes bugging out at photoshopped KFC one up?
Whether the poster says he didn't think it was inappropriate is irrelevant. That shit's racist. The KFC was definitely added simply because it was a black kid with his eyes bugging out. Give me a break, if it was a white kid there's no "joke."
Oh well, score one for the racists. This sort of shrugging off behavior amounts to tacit approval.
Try just asking any black person what they think of it.

There IS a difference between racism and stereotyping... I actually think it would help if people could start recognizing the difference. People need to understand that it is the HATE that hurts society... when people call everything racist it makes it easier to claim people are overreacting when true hate comes out....

Huh? Jokes based on racial stereotypes aren't racist somehow?
Ask a black person if that "joke picture" makes them feel loved, why dontcha?
The sad thing is that the kid in that picture appears to actually be reacting to some mind-blowing fact about space the teacher had just told him. But naw, he's all agog over a bucket of chicken in that library. Hi-larious.

Did you report it?
Don't get me wrong, there's absolutely no question as to the intention behind that picture (and yes, racist stereotypes are racist), but you can't really expect the mods to do something about it if they don't know about it.

Yes. Which is why I expected the mods to remove it.
Here's a (captioned!) one that (tangentially) involves race yet is not racist, and is actually funny, not just repeating a stereotype, so you can see how it's done.

when I 1st saw that I thought me and that young man are having the same reaction to fried chicken.But I have to agree many of my relatives would fail to see the humor.I love some chicken but if you put my photo in there would it be funny ? probably not.
Americans NEED to take a leaf out of us Aussies.
We take the piss out of everything and everyone, we aren't racist! Go figure.
We will sit, take the piss, have a laugh and beer with ANYONE.
BUT, if you are a dickhead and take offence, we will punch you in the face and THEN have a beer with you.
The world is crazy enough without being angry or sad.
Have a great day

All lives matter. History is to be learned from and not cancelled.
All this talk of compensation for previous ancestors mistakes should not paid for by the current.
Please don’t bring politics into this .

Or maybe, just maybe, the mods disagree with you. Did you ever consider that?
Pesonally I did not see any racist in the picture. And if I did I'd probably knew better and scroll further. How many "racist pics" did you find in this thread? At which point did you feel offended? One KFC picture did that for you? If so then I think you might need to re-evaluate some emotions and grow up.
Don't get me wrong, I feel sorry if that picture offended you but I think nowadays people are offended too damn fast. I am open for discussion however how to improve that but giving in to a that emotion by deleting the picture is not the best way forward as far as I'm concerned. An OPEN discussion is.
