There certainly wasn't any harmful intent, that much is true. And the American market, especially as America as a culture has a much looser relationship to history than countries with histories of more than a thousand years, will not pick up on it. This is a fair point. Perhaps you don't see why this is offensive because of a cultural difference? I'm not laying into you, I'm not putting this across as a criticism, but, speaking for the part of northern Europe in which I live, there is a distinctly different approach to referencing dark cultural events like the black and tans. Can you at least accept that there is a different set of values at play between Northern Europe and North America?
