Not only is it racist, I think their taking the branding a little too far.

Great point. Tell me —would this commercial work if the bad guy were ANY other race...?

Pretty shocking, eh...?
Yea, it’s bad.
WHITES NEED NOT APPLY
This has been up for three or four months; they keep it up!
we will never be one and come together so long as many in the black community keep seperating themselves.
They talk about MLK and yet do not know he was a republican and they certainly do not understand the DOC’S message.
He wanted a color blind nation they do not
black bike week
black miss America
black channels
I could go on and on about this and how they do not join together with the rest of us,’
As one guy told me which sums it up
They use not Tracy and names alike because they want to be different to the white folk
At McDonald's®, we believe that African-American culture and achievement should be celebrated 365 days a year — not just during Black History Month. That's the idea behind 365Black.com. It's a place where you can learn more about education, employment, career advancement and entrepreneurship opportunities, and meet real people whose lives have been touched by McDonald's. Plus, you can also have a chance to win exciting once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. So make sure you visit often — you just might get inspired.
No whites allowed.
Mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm. I’m lovin’ it! /s
Their commercials are also racist. If its about how cool the food is they have mostly black people, except for a few cute white girls and maybe a dorky white guy.
a commercial about their scratch off games were all white people.
It’s racism straight up
just left feedback asking them exactly how black I need to be in order to get priority for owning a franchise, and why is there no blackness calculator on the site to help me determine this?
uh...unless you live in South Central, where the black controlled City Council will not allow any more fast food joints, since they are killing minority children
There is a feedback page. Let them know what you think.
I thought it was because some of them just can’t spell
I already did....vehemently!!!!!
Or some hick white guy waking up the chickens with a cock-a-doodle-do.
I haven't bought anything there in years.
“Mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm. I’m lovin’ it! /s”
LOL...I remember way back in the 60’s when I lived in a “changing” neighborhood and a Burger King sprouted up in an abandoned lot. Even as a youngster, I couldn’t figure out why they were there when the other businesses were fleeing. But the place was packed every day. Later, I noticed there were always lots of BK’s and McDonald’s in the worst neighborhoods. That’s where the money is, I guess. But that website??!! I want equal treatment. Where is the 365white site?
My feedback (after clicking “No” or “Bad” for all the questions:
“Could you be more racist? How about 365White? 365Yellow? 365Red? 365Brown?”
Same here. I added a few more colors and patterns just in case anyone reading it was pink, blue, or tartan
Tartan is good!
>>Where is the 365white site?
Do you really need one? Isn’t it enough that white and yellow people have created virtually 100% of all human civilizations, most positive culture, and most technological advances since humans moved out of caves? Let McD’s throw the black man a bone!
Oh...is that racist? I don’t really give a damn anymore.
Not only is it racist, I think their taking the branding a little too far.
I just posted this:
When will McDonald's put up the "365white.com" and "365asian.com" websites? Or is it only OK to be a black racist?

I suggest you send your feedback to the main mcdonalds website...
to get a chuckle check out MCD’s corporate values

How much does it Macsuck? It's the only fast food in our small town, and I MIGHT buy a cup of coffee or egg-a-muffin if I'm desperate.
Compared to most of their fare, I'd rather have a bag of kettle fried bbq chips.
ever seen that AD for brinks home security(changed names now)
always a white guy breaking in and yet stats show a different story.’
course this is the same company which pulled AD’s from the Beck show so it does not surprise me.
Imagine if they always had a black guy?
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Mac has REALLY gone down the tubes. My kids hate it. The only decent thing now is the fries.
noticed the same.
I have no idea what the stats show for the black community and overweight and using this fast food places but I guess that blacks and the really poor areas do tend to prefer these kind of places.
I’ll be asking them the same question. but also why do you just use the term black and not include other Americans
lol...
Otherwise...I'D RATHER EAT TRIPE!
Yeah, well try and start a United Caucasian College Fund and see how far you get. Oh, and possibly an all white college (as there are several.)
It’s been a pain in my @ss for years the NAACP and the like. Just more and more separation while preaching unity..blah

Correction:
Sorry... there are several all black colleges.
McDs is just panning to the stupidity and ignorance of the black population at large. Anyone who knows anything about McDs, and all fast food franchises, knows that no black person was given one store and then somehow managed to earn 25 more. To even get a single store a person must have a $1 million net worth before McDs will even talk to you about a store. Then the person must pony up $400,000 in cash just to get McDs to look at where to put the store.
That old black couple on the front page are just Uncle Toms scammin black folk.
A few people are reading this backwards. It is racist no doubt. But what if Mickey D opened a Retarded365 website.
What they are trying to say Is dat we be bein’.down wit da struggle, bro.
Pandering is elitist racism. By affording able bodied men special privilege based on the pigmentation of their skin, you are, defacto, declaring this characteristic to be a disability of some sort.
Nothing could be more racist.
