I Forgot, Which Is Bad, Perpetuating Or Mocking Stereotypes?
MLK Party Causes Uproar on Texas Campus:
    Authorities at Tarleton State University said they plan to investigate a Martin Luther King Jr. Day party that mocked black stereotypes by featuring fried chicken, malt liquor and faux gang apparel.

    "I feel like there is no excuse for this type of ignorance," said Donald Ray Elder, president of the Stephenville school's chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
So mocking stereotypes is as offensive and ignorant as actually believing them?

Ah, who cares, let's call the attorneys. Certainly having a sense of humor should be worth some punitive damages to those who do not.
