People died as a result of Katrina, even in parody I don't think it's appropriate as a joke. It may not have been genuinely offensive but it was quite distasteful. It also really surprised me coming from a company in a state that borders Louisiana.

I know all about that, believe me. But it is crude to just assume so I wanted to be sure. Though I'm pretty sure there are plenty of cards that offend, upset, or at the very least, irritate some people, and others that would find them hilarious. I tend to remove cards during games where players are involved that I know get upset, I play in crowded stores and don't want trouble, :/
