Fukudome does not rike the shirt, whatever the intent, good or bad, who cares? He does not rike the shirt and he is offended, why people tly to impose the shirt on him and other Asians (myserf incruded) as being "ok" confuses me. Also, what doesn't even make sense to me is that the "R" and "L" make some sense but since when did "C" and "K" become a plonounciation issue for Asians? I just watched all 3 Kalate Kid movies just to make sure and Pat Molita never had a problem saying "C."

That shirt isn't half as funny as Abercrombie's "Two Wongs can make it White".

Hey Daulerio, I bet when you read someone ripping you, and they spell your name incorrectly, you think, "Fuck this guy. He can't even spell my name right?"

]]> <![CDATA[Debating Race And Offensiveness, Chicago Style]]> Also, the slant-y eyed "up" Asian caricature is usually a reference for people of Chinese ancestry. Japanese has usually been drawn with thin eyes in a horizontal or possibly even "down" position.

I'm Japanese. I find it MUCH more offensive when people "confuse" different Asian culture than when they use some country specific insult/stereotype (it shows they at least did their research)
