For the first time ever, the iconic art supply company will retire a color from its 24-count box this Friday on National Crayon Day. ... Crayola introduced the controversial “flesh” color in 1949 but renamed it “flesh tint” and “pink beige” before finally settling on “peach”– as its known today, according to the website.

I don't know if they were trying to be politically correct? Remember when we were kids and girl's dolls were all pink? Some things weren't so great after all in the good old days.

I am white and proud of it. God made me that way. If you and any other l*****t fool doesn't like it, you can kiss my a$$, but floss your teeth 1st and shine my shoes after you bring me my coffee. How's that for diversity??

You're list failed to include the Irish, Polish & Italians. I'm of Polish ancestry and my father told me that when his parents bought the house that I grew up in he and his brothers literally had to fight their way to and from school on a daily basis. Virtually every ethnic group has faced discrimination when they were in the minority or deemed 'different' that's why they grouped together with their own kind.

Hey, you've got to admire the Polish after what they have been through, at the crossroad of invasions from the east and the west throughout history. Plus they made great scientific achievements. But Lech Walesa and the Solidarity movement during the c*******t warsaw pact took real balls.

I never told you how they fought the Russian tanks when they had only firebombs. Put mud in there it burns longer.
