People are dumb.

As a corn farmer, I am extremely upset about Nebraska using Cornhuskers as their mascot. And on top of that, a local news station had the gall to make fun of my way of life....

I am not that old, but I feel left out of this pity party that is our country today. I can honestly say I've NEVER been offended by anything to do with my race, ethnicity, religion, gender, or stereotype.

I am of Swedish descent and the Swedish chef on the Muppets in no way offends me and I find him freaking hilarious. Any Swede that finds him offensive can stfu and eabod, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find one who cares, we've got better stuff to do or so I'd like to think.

I think it's only going to gain steam because Pollard made a comment. Just should have taken it down and let that be that.

Jesus I hate this dumb *** PC world we live in.

Reminds me of all the old people saying how offended they were at Book of Mormon last night.

This is definitive proof that there is no end to the number of things people can be offended by. There is nothing even remotely racist about this. Not even close. Our society has become so watered down it is sickening. Pollard lost what tiny bit of respect I have for him by sounding off on this.

Relax guys. A very small % of people are overly sensitive, can't take a joke, and whine a lot. The only reason anyone even knows or cares is because of social media. ISU has to tread lightly so they took the careful route. It's not the end of the world or society as we know.

Alright I'm not going to chime in on the picture or the outrage to it... but the fact that you have "NEVER been offended by anything to do with [your] race, ethnicity, religion, gender" is kind of an informative statement when it comes from what I assume is a white Christian male. If I am wrong feel free to correct me. But saying "I've never been offended" when you are a white Christian man in America is pretty ignorant of what other people go through sometimes. And this post is coming from a white Christian man by the way

With that said there are real issues out there other than a Three Amigos photoshop that would be a better use of everyone's mental energy so maybe the people who are offended by the photo should re-prioritize
