Strip by: Alexander Rodgers

Jon: I'm going to put the black ones on the end and the white ones on the other.
Garfield: Decisions! Decisions! Decisions!
{A photograph of a man using a segregated drinking fountain}

The author writes:

Admin note: I thought long and hard before deciding to publish this strip. Racial segregation and discrimination are serious issues that must not be dismissed lightly. I decided to publish this because it is lampooning racial segregation, not promoting it.]]
