Are you stupid? How about you approach a table in a restaurant and ask a black gentleman "Why didn't you get the fried chicken"?
It doesn't make a difference if he's talking about a hat, he's stereotyping a race and that's not my brand of fun.

What Dr. Scribs did was no more racist than a European descirbing Americans as "people who like cheeseburgers."

He was describing a hat, not a person!
What, do you think "cotton gin" is just another term for a black slave?
It would be the same as calling a doo-rag a "cotton picker"
If you honestly don't get why that is inapporpriate, then I feel soory for you.

so, what would you call the guy in this picture?

The hat the good Dr. was describing is actually used in conjunction with picking rice (it is used as a basket) while a doo-rag has nothing to do with picking cotton.

are you American or English?
In any event, racial slurs against asians are as offensive as racial slurs against blacks.
