Amusing.

I don't really see the downside though, the tracking looks terrible and irritating to watch. Anyone with taste would disable it immediately.

African American lab.

There is no African in that breed.  So it is Black, not chocolate either.

It's like Tiger Woods, sure he looks black but he is only like 1/64th black.  So in America he is black.  But in reality he is a mutt that is currently trying to build his street cred. by sleeping with lots of woman to make up for the fact he plays a "professional sport"

I think "VC" was making a jab at political correctness.
