Is this picture straight up racist, is it good humor gone awry, or is not as offensive as people think?

Breaking! The secret service just uncovered a plot to kidnap the president. More details as we get them.....
Obama is "black"
The watermelon is there because of the stereotype that blacks LOVE watermelon (along with fried chicken and purple koolaid)

Oh! I thought they were trying to imply that Black people were the equivalent to animals because of the trap part. So it's racist on 2 levels !
Pretty. Odd.

Yes it definitely is.
I really don't "get" the watermelon stereotype though. Is it a bad thing to like watermelon?
