OHHHHHH.. WAAAAAAAAHHHH !!! "I would not matter where the cartoon were to be set, LA or Park Forest... having African-Americans depicted in such a manner is racist. ( Janet Liberal) Considering the racism Mark has had to endure throughout his life.. I am sure he did not intentionally set out to offend anyone in a racist manner. However, I am sure perps of such crimes are NOT green. In a black and white format..what are your options??? DUH Isn't it amazing that the darkened person is automatically considered African- American. ( Negro )....Amazing..... I know a " white guy" from Zimbabwe that is refused the designation of Afro-AMERICAN. Other nationalities are dark... Arabs and Palestinians and Jewish people are also dark. I think the whole point was to show the sublime and the ridiculous lengths a meteorite addict will go to in his attempt to retrieve the heavenly booty. An attempt was made for it to look ludicrously ridiculous to make the point. What is the point ????? Mark has his right to make a cartoon. You have the right to be offended or not offended. Is whining " racism" supposed to accomplish anything? If so .. what? Beats me. I am sure there is an ulterior motive other than to coerce individuals who disagree with you, to kiss your rump to soothe imagined wrongs. In my estimation.. if the mind is opened too wide.. the brains will fall out.
