question:

do you guys think the below smiley is racist/offensive?

http://www.volnation.com/forum/images/smilies/default/mamba.gif

someone used it on another board i frequent and i said that i thought it looked like blackface. i was told i was insane. am i? 

[Eugene Young]

depends on the context

generally speaking, yes.

but if statistic/massa (whatever happened to him btw) was using it, probably not.

ETA: It could be considered offensive, not racist, depending on the context.

[Kirk Lazarus]

How can a smiley face be racist?

[7S]

did you see that damn smiley?
