Wow, that one has three companies scrambling for cover. Sounds like the
purchaser is looking to take them to the cleaners. I can certainly see
where she'd be upset but I'd probably report the offense, return the
sofa (and there better be a full refund), and quit shopping there. I
don't think I'd sue. On the other hand, I'm not black and, even as a
woman, I've not been subjected to that sort of treatment, so I don't
know what I'd do in her shoes if I was.

I guess cracker-white wasn't a good choice to paint my house then?

I'd probably rip the tag off and go back to watching the boob tube.


People always make something out of nothing, I don't get it.

No, Cracker-white is fine. I painted the walls in my house
Crayola-Caucasian.
