It was a different time. I can't blame my grandfather for being racist because that was just how things were when he was growing up.

At the time these things weren't viewed as stupid or ignorant. It wouldn't fit in today's age and I sure wouldn't support it, but then again tons of other stereotypes do continue to pervade our society.

I'd say yes, it is...

But it's not really being offensive to anyone, so I'm gonna go with option #3: maybe.

Oooh no it can't. If you remain stubborn and stick to your ignorant/stupid ways, and find a POSITIVE change stupid/ignorant, you very well may be stupid/ignorant!

So your saying only change can be positive I really doubt that from experience. Its stupid/ignorant not to keep the good things in life. what makes your change more positive than ones stubborness?

Come on man, give up this argument. I said POSITIVE change, I never said all changes are positive. And I never said you have to change the good things of life or whatever. Aaaaaaand I never said my change is more positive than ones stubborness, where the heck did that come from?

Well I can ask where did this positive part come from, anyways, as I said it can go both ways. And as you said that "I never said my change is more positive than ones stubborness" and this "and find a POSITIVE change stupid/ignorant, you very well may be stupid/ignorant!" can also be a negative to some. In a way these quotes almost conflict against eachother :p bah I cant word what im trying to say here. I might explain it better in next post if i can

Anyway I keep keep this up for a few mins im going in a few mins I might not finish this or the other argument I m having too

I don't see how it's racist at all. It's not prejudice, he's not discriminating, and it doesn't insinuate that certain races are inferior. I mean right after acting like a slave he pretends to be Abraham Lincoln condeming Sam for ostensively promoting slavery.

I can see how it might be offensive to some but it's not racist.

Yo sammity callin him boy, Bugs bunny being darker, dont whip me massa? Wtf is not racist about it. Then they have abraham lincoln coming up, what is this about u whipping slaves. Yeah, not at all racist. :|

a) Boy is common nickname, with all creeds, especially back in the old days for fathers to their sons.

b) Bugs is pretending to be black slave -- what color did you except him to be?

Otherwise, while offensive, I do not if I would call it racist.

Also, if you want to be technical about it, the entire character of Sam is stereotype of southerns.

No, it's not. To quote what somebody wrote on Youtube on it: it's not racist, just a humorous depiction of societal trends in the civil war era
