Do you get extra racist points for selectively pointing out the origins of the character, then claiming it is innocuous but won't let the character fade in to history.
EDIT: This comment is aimed at the people that claim the gollywog isn't racist. These are the comments I have read and thought if it so innocuous, why care if it is no longer around. These are the same people that complain about the Agatha Christie novel that is now called - And then there were none. This is the books third name and is the book any different for the title change?. Personally, I just found those characters a bit scary and as a child and would not eat Robinson jam if I saw the jar.
