Lil Monkey /facepalm

So I guess a new doll showed up on the Costco store shelves that was "politically incorrect" and people started complaining about it so they had to pull it.

While I'm not one to get on the "pollitically correct" bandwagon, I kind of agree with them. I mean look at that doll. It's an African American baby girl with a headband that says "Lil' Monkey". Honestly people. No one saw this as offensive? The doll went from design to production to packaging to the store shelves and no one thought it was in the least bit offensive?

The company that produced this doll said "We don’t think in that way. We don’t operate in that kind of thinking. We have a really diverse family-operated company that’s been around for 28 years.". Come on.
