There doesn't appear to be any connection at all.

The only people I see whining are the ones trying convince themselves that there is some rabid gay army who is 'outraged' at this silly humor.

It's actually seems to be targeted at young males in a small town who still think 'jailin' is fashionable.

Interesting the way everyone is upset with the sign, but nobody seems to be upset with dimwits showing their ***es to everyone.

Actually, the sign should have read, "Pull your pants up, moron, your IQ is showing and nobody is impressed."

It's unfair to relate homosexuality with stupidity.

I am assuming that's the word that got blacked out.

Surely you jest. Words (even if, like the word "*****," they didn't have multiple usages and meanings) aren't "removed from dictionaries" simply because some people choose to be perpetually offended.

Give me a very large break.

Replace that word with "spik", "niggger" and there's your answer. Would it be acceptable with those words?

Sounds like a black lady. Not kidding either, I've met very few whites in Georgia that talk like that. Why are you so racist? I'm outraged that you feel it is OK to racially stereotype like you do. When did you last attend a KKK meeting?
