For those that can't quite see it: "Racial profiling saves lives." Though the police were sure Chris Kantos had doctored the photo himself, they later admitted to the fault and apologized saying someone of "unknown origin" placed the bumper sticker on their vehicle.

Can't tell if this is racial profiling or just...

Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges came under seriously ridiculous racially-charged scrutiny this week when local police chastised her for making this gesture with a young man involved with a Twin Cities charity. As you can see in this video, the hand sign was clearly the result of an awkward "how do I pose" sort of moment. Local TV station KSPT had another story: That the mayor was intentionally making a "gang sign" with the volunteer, a former felon.

That would be Jim DeBerry, the force behind this ass-backwards commercial for McCutcheon & Hamner, P.C. Attorneys at Law. DeBerry, never one to back down from the "PC Police" apparently, defended accusations of racism with the classic "but I have Asian friends" defense.

@khayters I appreciate your viewing but to the contrary, I'm not a racist. I have many friends of various races and a top minority employer.

Remember, dime-store costumes and bad accents that would make the suits behind old-school Aunt Jemima squirm are totally acceptable so long as you have friends. The wisdom of life, right here.
