Holy shit you're all retarded.
Racism is to hate a race. To hate a race of people, to despise a race of people based on the the surface of their culture and propagated fear. Fear that some race might be inherently better in some way or another, so they must have some negative down swing to help the racist feel better about themselves.
If it was called Nigger Ice Cream 'The Watermelon ice cream for stupid niggers!" then i'd gladly accept its racist tones. But a drawing of a black kid that looks just as ridiculous as today's characitures of blacks (from Boondocks to the PJ's) for an ad for ice cream is not hateful at all, there is nothing there that says its putting anyone down. And no, just because a word is used on a black it doesnt make that word suddenly racist. My great grandfather called me and my sister 'little picaninny terrors' because its a southern term and we were on his farm in Alabama.
I said logical arguments, all you guys are doing is saying 'its racist because there's a race depicted'
