Here we have more of the same tired images of black people (presumably African) that the ad says Walgreens will help because they are poor. Evidently, Walgreens people haven't seen the TEDX talk by Mallence Bart Williams explaining that Africa is the richest continent with the richest countries on earth. Those people don't need Walgreens' help or anybody else's. They just need to not have their resources stolen. And, how a red nose will make things better I don't know.

ConfusedWHAAAAT???!
 
Africa is what it is because the population is IGNORANT and doesn't even try to get along.
Africa does to Africa all the nasty things that happens to Africa.
If that wasn't true, I'd already be properly exploiting the entire continent - but the whole area is simply too unstable.
 
Trust me - I know. I'm a wolf.Wink
 
I DO agree about 'poor pitiful blacks' - I am SO sick of the last few generations whining about prejudice and unfair treatment...but we cannot discuss that in this forum - take THAT topic to the 'Flame Room' or 'Political Forum'.

I think you buy the red nose for a buck and the money goes to charity.

Methinks 'sandy m' believes it goes to a non-us based black charity.

Or it might go to the border wall fund.

Safe, healthy and educated.  Yeah, right.  I'd like to see the financials on this red nose campaign.  How much really goes to the Children of the US and Around The World?

I would much rather donate my money to a charity without making a fool of myself wearing a plastic or rubber red nose.  How am I supposed to breath with that thing on?

I mostly just read other posters here but wanted to say how much I enjoy the completely non-PC postings of PaWolf, Thor, AkaRon, etal, here.This lame Walgreens campaign will be infesting your airwaves for months now. They have about as much of a chance of getting me to buy a red nose as they do of getting me to buy a home vasectomy kit.(Check out some of the "corporate sponsors" of this, which include LaRaza...the United Way is great at that,too, they bundle a lot of entities you probably would never give a dime to, and then have the employers browbeat their people into giving.)

Get the other Walgreen's Red Nose Clown by partaking of their liquor section.  Be sure to leave them a dollar after you get your schnozz to turn your favorite shade of red....  LOL

Yeah, the drugs stores stopped selling tobacco products.
But not the most convenient OTC drug on the market, alcohol.

Doesn't work here. We still have state liquor stores. Open 11:00 AM to 6:PM Monday through Thursday. 7 PM Fridays. 8PM Saturdays. Closed Sundays and holidays. I was shocked when I moved to California in 1974. You could buy liquor anywhere almost anytime. I'm surprised kids weren't selling it at lemonade stands! In Nevada you could drink while driving. Arizona had drive through liquor stores where you could get 3/4 of a big gulp with your bottle.

No, no, no, no, no, you all misunderstand!  You drink right at the shelf Clown,   then leave your dollar there (if you are in any condition to run away...  Wink  )  Kind of like 'Dine & Dash'...  LOL
 
Besides, think of all those poor clowns they snipped those rubber noses off of.  They probably take a long time to grow back...  LOL

I'd rather leave the red nose, rather than the dollar.
 
(adding to Sarge's state comparison)
I was in Louisiana and met a local policeman who was out on a date with his wife and they had friends in the back seat of the police car they were 'out on the town' in.
They were drinking in the car and even in the public store where I met them.
Being on the way to Texas at that time, they had me have a few drinks next to the police car in the store lot, then a few more at the local watering hole, before I had to hit the Interstate, face-first.

Yeah, I once saw a Youtube rant (by a black preacher) about how, despite all of Africa's rich natural resources, the continent has nothing to show for it.
