I used to think I was just a regular person, but I was born white, which now, whether I like it or not, makes me a racist. I am a fiscal and moral conservative, which by today’s standards, makes me a fascist. I am heterosexual, which now makes me a homophobe. I am mostly non-union, which makes me a traitor to the working class and an ally of big business. I was christened by my parents, which now labels me as an infidel. I am retired, which makes me useless. I think and I reason, therefore I doubt much that the main stream media tells me, which must make me a reactionary. I am proud of my heritage, which makes me a xenophobe. I value my safety and that of my family and I appreciate the police and the legal system, which makes me a right-wing extremist. I believe in hard work, fair play, and fair compensation according to each individual’s merits, which today makes me an anti-socialist. I (and most of the folks I know), acquired a fair education without student loan debts and little or no debt, which makes me some kind of an odd underachiever. I believe in the defence and protection of my country and I honour those who served in the Armed Forces, which now makes me a right wing-militant. Please help me come to terms with the new me… because I’m just not sure who the hell I am anymore! Funny …it’s all just taken place over the last 7 or 8 years! As if all this nonsense wasn’t enough to deal with.. Now I’m not even sure which toilet to go into!

Please, I am not a local from over there, forgive any perceived ignorance from me.
How are these ornaments racist??
I am thinking some might argue the cigarettes might be inappropriate from a health promotional perspective but where does the racist long bow come from?
