He's obviously mocking Indians (excuse me, Native Americans) and clearly thinks of them as subhumans....how can you not get that from that picture???

What I'm tired of is that people keep apologizing to all these leftist when there is nothing to apologize for.

I wish I were famous just so I could publicly say something "offensive" and then not apologize for it.

The only thing I can determine he did wrong was apologizing for something that wasn't wrong.

I'll see your racial sensitivity and raise you a gender equality issue.

It’s now legal for men to use women’s bathrooms, showers, and dressing facilities – and vice-versa – thanks to the passing of the Equal Rights Ordinance in Houston, TX last Wednesday night.

Mayor Parker, Houston’s first openly gay mayor, called it “most personally meaningful thing I will ever do as mayor.”


What could possibly go wrong?

I have about 500 19th century Indian Head pennies. I guess I'd better throw them out before the PC police come get me.

So apparently the wearing of any cultural costume is now forbidden?

People have become such tools.
