Is This Racist?

Check out the signature .

It’s a term used in the black community. Was the underlying message meant for black people only or are they trying to get a laugh? Much of the message has comedy in it and maybe they thought they’d get a laugh from people. Though I wonder how hot soccer balls are...

Part of me laughed at the message asking people not to commit crimes during the heat wave. Part of me laughed at the wording.

But if addressed to “all Joses” or “all LaQuandanishas” or “all Ching Taos” or “all Tayquans” would it have the same racist tone?

And I’m not looking to start a race war here. I’m curious if there is hidden racism in their message.

Makes you think, huh?
