[Vision2020] Offensive Cartoon (in my opinion)

[Kai Eiselein]

Chas, do you find this statement racist?
"What a beautiful aryan daughter you have there."
I do, and did, and I ran off the neo-nazi SOB who made that comment about my 
kid  in Spokane's Riverfront Park.

And why wouldn't they see it as racist? Do you think that maybe it's because 
things like history and government aren't taught, or are just glossed over 
anymore in school?
