If you dress up as a pig, aren't you mocking police officers? I hear outright hateful things about former president Bush, many flat out lies, yet why don't I hear from him and his family complaining about it? Why was this young black man offended in the first place? I thought it was gutless for the girls to apologize for this. They gave in to the premise that they were mocking young black men and I don't think that was the intention at all.
