This Just In - Inappropriate Furniture Colors

Racial slur on sofa label stuns family

Quote:
When the new chocolate-coloured sofa set was delivered to her Brampton home, Doris Moore was stunned to see packing labels describing the shade as "N*****-brown."

I don't know what else to say, the article pretty much captures the monumental stupidity of it quite well.

About "This Just In": Sometimes I'll find a news article I just have to share, so that's what this feature is for. Enjoy!
