My Dogs...
-
My Dogs This morning I went to sign my dogs up for welfare. At first the lady said, "dogs are not eligible to draw welfare." I explained to her that my dogs are mixed in color, unemployed, lazy, can't speak English and have no clue who their Daddy's are. They expect me to feed them, provide them with housing and medical care. She looked in her policy book to see what it takes to qualify. My dogs get their first checks this Friday. Dang, this sure is a great country.

I can't move it, and I wouldn't as I don't think anything is wrong with the joke. But I see some prejudiced perps downvoted to have the message removed.

I didn't read the OP, but perhaps you meant "prejudice".

Implied? The joke directly said that and dogs are of mixed race (breed) generally.

Really? Today's the first time I've heard/seen it. And I'm not feeling particularly superior. And in any case I saw it as an indictment of the welfare system, not of it's recipients. Like I said, your posting says a lot about *your* attitudes and it aint pretty.

here's a nice prominent example: http://newsone.com/nation/casey-gane-mccalla/virginia-gop-chair-sends-racist-welfare-black-dog-email/[^] yes, his dog was black. your dogs were "mixed". there are plenty of examples on the net where the 'mixed' implies racially impure. also, the "lazy", "doesn't speak English", "doesn't know who his daddy is", etc. stuff is boilerplate racist garbage.

and so that's why you left all those negative stereotypes in there.
