So now this child will grow up knowing that when you associate watermelons with black people it's racism. Chaulk one up for the Dems.

You're right- that's taking your power over your life and handing it over to people who aren't worthy of even commenting on what anyone does.

Why would I care what people I have zero respect for might think or say about me?

I can't wrap my head around it.

This is just overly PC snowflakes ruining America. Oh wait....


Actually, it's the fault of the parent(s) who dressed their kid as a watermelon slice because, along with that, they should have known that Fox would run the feature without pulling the little black kid out of the group of kids, and screaming We can't run this piece with the little black kid whose parents dressed him as a watermelon slice!

This shouldn't be a thing that angers anyone but it does for ridiculous reasons that cause more harm than good. I see things like this as desensitization. Repeated exposure to something can eventually bring about a neutral or positive reaction. Sometimes it's the only way to deal with stupid.

No kidding. People who eat watermelon should be praised, not mocked. Watermelon has a lot of vitamins and lycopene, it's a healthy and intelligent food choice.

Translation: I can't defend the watermelon = Fox is racist so I'll just throw on a negative comment.
