But members of the Los Angeles NAACP say it sounds like "black whore." That's how they're hearing the card's audio component, and they say it's racist. I haven't heard the card...but the black holes need to watch their back...after what they did. Uncle doom is the best kind of doom |

Ironicallly they have now made the card collectible. |
