Political Correctness Gone MadFreddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."

I can't forget Breda, 2006I'd driven from my brother's place in Northern France across Belgium to score some weed in the nearest Dutch town, Breda.
Having then sampled some of the wares purchased, wandering out through Breda I got the fear big time when I saw these blacked-up freaks going round the town.
Holland's a great place but what with blacked-up Peters, and all the trams, cyclists and canals in Amsterdam to scare the stoned tourist, it's also an obstacle course - very much "the quick OR the dead".
