This political cartoon, a critic of Chicago politicians, cost five staff members their job with Illinois governor Bruce Rauner this summer (his communications team and the governor’s general counsel).
Illinois democrats and their supportive experts in academia declared the cartoon racist and those with anything to do with the organization that created and posted the image, that being the Illinois Policy Institute, had to be purged from the governor’s staff. Apparently, the governor’s general counsel had to go too, for not providing a proper response to the race-baiting fire storm.
The kid should have shot the old rich white bastard
(cue the music:)
WAI-AIT A MINUTE!

Fat, old, rich, white guys are now a protected (from ridicule) class? In Barack Obama’s Illinois?
(cue the music:)
YOU MAKE ME WANNA’ SHOUT! WAVE YOUR HANDS NOW! SHOUT…
(y’all can finish the rest)
So if you’re white your racist, unless your a rich white Democrat in Chicago ? Is someone unable to handle their white guilt ?
It’s simple. If you criticize democrat policies, you are either:
Racist
Sexist
Homophobic
Islamaphobic
Funny thing is, that cartoon isn’t all that funny. What’s worse, even if the fat-cat Dems had any money to give, the kid would never see any of it. Schools would still be crappy, but the teachers could have nicer vacations and cars.
Why didn’t the cartoonist do the safe thing and draw a pic of Muhammad?
