It's that old stereotype that all black kids frequent goose glory holes.

That's a pretty secret stereotype Dave, since this is the first I've heard of it. You made that up, right?

It's "racist" because some black people choose to be offended by it.
They don't need to explain why, because Political Correctness puts offense in the eye of the beholder. It's logically fallacious, a type of circular reasoning: "It's offensive because I'm offended."
But then, when did PC have anything to do with logic? It's about feelings. -

Well.. It could be that Bob was a black gent and he wanted other black folks to know he had a bar, and a goose glory hole, or something.

Bobb's with three b's instead of two o's.
Reminds me of the joke where the Native American checks for Bee's. -

Kid knew he was being 'blitzkrieged' when he saw his assaulters 'goose-stepping'.
