Remember the song “Baa Baa Black Sheep”? The harmless nursery rhyme was written in the early 1700s and has been sung by children around the world ever since. At least it used to be, now it may be a hate crime.

Child care centers in a suburb of Melbourne, Australia, are changing the song because of racial and sexist connotations in the lyrics.

Someone remind me how we can coexist with liberals. Cuz I forget.

When we end up in Fallout3/Road Warrior I am gonna have an absolute blast watching these people suffer.

How will they refer to the TV show?

The real WW II pacific heroes?

[HandyDandy]

My brother, the black sheep of the family, will find this comforting.

[wally_bert]

“Understandably, parents are befuddled. One telling the Herald, “I am a person who has black skin. Can we please stop with the political correctness, it’s becoming a joke. The song is called baa baa black sheep. No need to change it!”

What about “Mary Had a Little Lamb”?

Racist too?

On the other Puss ‘n Boots is realizing an uptick.

“Mary, Mary, quite contrary” is being reviewed out of an abundance of caution.

[SparkyBass]

Baa, baa, African-American sheep, have you any wool?

DIE, CRACKER!

The end.

Racism is when someone is mistreated or favored because of their race.
Baa, baa black sheep does not qualify.
Yet another example of libs getting upset because they just like getting upset.

[Cubs Fan]

Hooves up, don't shear!

LOL nice

[Cubs Fan]

Now see, this is exactly the kind of nonsense that Chopper Reid was talking about.

{Language warning for the extremely prudish.]

The black sheep are going to be upset.... where’s the diversity? the inclusiveness?

[Know et al]

When your only tool is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

When one looks for racism, they will find it in everything.

[Know et al]

I wonder if they would consider Baa Baa White Sheep as racist?

[glennaro]

How about baa-baa negro sheep ... would that be better and assuage the hurt feelings of the overly-sensitive idiots?
