was stupid  exactly because so many people interject race in the watermelon thing..  it was a bad analogy  but I agree with the underlying idea.

 I remember the outrage  because a regressive sent out a  picture of  watermelons growing on the lawn of the White House. It has a racial connotation for a good number of people.

For some reason  .. I dont know how it got in my head. The water melon stuff immediately makes me think the person is calling black people ignorant and less than them.
