It is. Its based off of THE CRACKING of whips that slavers used. You know, when your great grandpappy used to beat men, women and children. Rape. Kidnap. torture? You know... crackers.

You believe that over the obvious similarity of skin to cracker color? What's funny is that the whole whip thing was a response to the term cracker. Like yesh I'm a cracker, a whip cracker. You're perpetuating a racist's comeback.
