If you fail to grasp how referring to an African-American in any relation to "monkeys" only further highlights your ignorance. It is not picking and choosing, it is a historical epitaph....but aside from that - why did you even have to go there with a personal assault? If you didn't like the pic. you could have simply stated that without the offense or any derogatory comments about Mr. Withers.

He did not "cherry pick" the refernce Bruce - you did, which is why his assertion is accurate. I’d have to side with James on this one.

If you find offence in the comparison then you must look within and understand that it is a YOU issue not a racist issue. Would "sharp as a Hawk" offend you or would it offend the Hawk? James,

I felt you needed a straw man to vent your feelings..... glad to assist. Having said that why not find an image of yourself that shows you in a credible positive light as opposed to an image that shows you bearing your teeth like a mad dog! or like expressing your self like a crazed Hyinna(sp?) or expressing yourself as in idividual that has no control ( show us an example of a serious journalist that expresses themselves like your screeming ninnie image regardless of what animal referance it conjures up. Animal referaances do not make one a racist! Quit hiding behind your ethnicity!! James….
