Re: Apology email from QVC

It says quite a bit about those spewing hate as they must do so anonymously.

 

Deep down they must realize it is wrong, on some level, as they don't want others to know who they really are.

 

It must be sad going through life under those circumstances.

Having never heard this phrase, I immediately thought it was just bad grammar on Q's part and find it hard to believe QVC would intentionally put out a racist phrase.

If you don't know what it is about, then your opinion of "A big ado (to do) bout nothing", is pretty much cancelled out, right?

@Greeneyedlady21  I agree; if we don't speak up about derogatory comments made than who'll speak up when they are made about us.  

@colleena   well put and true .

It was in extremely poor taste, and I am glad they issued an apology. I love the ones here dismissing it because they don't care to understand why it's offensive because it doesn't affect them.
