Please explain how you could possibly come up with the idea that a picture of a Japanese woman serving Sake, on the site of a tool named Sake, is even remotely racist. Here''s a hint: it''s called "theme" Jason On 9/14/07, blinking bear <blinkingbear-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > http://sakebar.railsrumble.com/images/sake-doll.jpg > > >--~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Does that mean a picture of a burning cross or Aunt Jemima wouldn''t be racist as long as you use it as a theme? ;) RSL On 9/14/07, Jason Roelofs <jameskilton-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Please explain how you could possibly come up with the idea that a picture > of a Japanese woman serving Sake, on the site of a tool named Sake, is even > remotely racist. > > Here''s a hint: it''s called "theme" > > Jason > > > On 9/14/07, blinking bear <blinkingbear-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > http://sakebar.railsrumble.com/images/sake-doll.jpg > > > > > > > > >--~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Stereotypical perhaps, but I wouldn''t say racist. It''s not like they have a few white people hanging the Japanese lady from a tree or something... --Jeremy On 9/14/07, blinking bear <blinkingbear-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> http://sakebar.railsrumble.com/images/sake-doll.jpg > > >-- http://www.jeremymcanally.com/ My free Ruby e-book: http://www.humblelittlerubybook.com/book/ My blogs: http://www.mrneighborly.com/ http://www.rubyinpractice.com/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
