NDNation Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I wonder if it was intentional. Why is the kid in the middle of the pool "not cool"? Is he swimming the wrong way? Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't read "the rules" sign on public swimming pools. I did look at the sign, but I can't tell you how many kids total were in the picture. Can you? I did get the general message of what activities were cool and what was not cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMTSoulja1 Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 ...maybe it was just me. I'd notice something like that immediately. But I would have said something like 'they know they're wrong ' . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bullets13 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I'm sure it was unintentional, but once it was pointed out it definitely needed to be removed, which they did, and an apology was needed, which they gave. thetragichippy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hagar Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 It sure turned out wrong. I'm confident it was unintentional, but sad it turned out like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baddog Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 I'm sick of everything coming down to race. Would you like for me to be childish when I see my race portrayed as inferior? Ok. The Nationwide Insurance commercials depict white people dancing around in the yard throwing sacks of white powder in the air, trimming trees, changing oit,.....anything to kep from calling their insurance company, while the cool, calm, and collected black couple is watching the heathens perform during thier siteown with their insurance agent. Switch the roles and you have lawsuits. Long Tall Texan and Ty Cobb 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it was a drawing, not sure how any one drawing could have chosen another pool. Anyways, the people that drew and ultimately approved that poster made a mistake. Whether it was purposely racial or not, I don't know. But it was a mistake. A mistake that a place as big as the Red Cross can't make. And if you want to be childish about when you think your race is considered inferior, go right ahead, you won't be the first or last. I don't want to make it a competition, I wish the worst complaint we could have is an insurance commercial.

It was as not even on national tv like the commercial until now. Maybe you can see the childish parallels I am drawing. I never said the poster was right either.
