This is a catoon that was published in today's New York Post. It's supposed to make light of the monkey that was recently shot by police, by why the reference to Obama? As of this morning 52% of TMZ readers did NOT think this was racist...If this isn't racist I don't know what is...

Hell yes this is mad offensive and ridiculous! Our society is still in the back woods somewhere in so many ways. The fact that a well known publication like the New York Post would run that cartoon is indicative of what the majority still thinks of us as....animals!

Statement from Rev Sharpton:

The cartoon in today’s New York Post is troubling at best given the historic racist attacks of African-Americans as being synonymous with monkeys. One has to question whether the cartoonist is making a less than casual reference to this when in the cartoon they have police saying after shooting a chimpanzee that “Now they will have to find someone else to write the stimulus bill.

Being that the stimulus bill has been the first legislative victory of President Barack Obama (the first African American president) and has become synonymous with him it is not a reach to wonder are they inferring that a monkey wrote the last bill?”

SMDH...we've come a long way, but still have SO FAR to go...

This is very racist and equally disturbing.

What did we all think? That racism died with the election of the first black president? Hell no! That was just a hurdle and believe me there are many more...

Way racist. Who is going to do anything bout it ? NOT a soul. We all rather be blinded by stardom and silliness.
When a real man can step up and help. everyone wants to run to the famous ones ONLY.

I see this as total disrepect regardless of the mans work. Even disrespectful to law enforcement.
