The United States is out of control

Those were black jokes he told? Interesting.

I dare you to point out an ethnic group he didn't touch. Perhaps the Inuit escaped his scope... perhaps.

Most all my racist moments lately are in response to treating someone of ethnicity with kindness. A smile and a hello towards the cashier almost always evokes a response as if I just spat on them. This just after the person in front of me who happened to share the same race gets treated like an old friend. I agree, everyone of us carries a least a little bias for what its worth. But when I cross the street to avoid a walking group of warning signs, the last thing I'm going to feel is guilty.

I don't blame you. I don't head into the middle of a clan rally either. Normally.

But I've done it. Thrice.

was the only white guy I could think of that hit racial stereotypes as hard as chapelle and others had... and well it was neither intentional nor did it work out to well for him.

My point was that in comedy some have felt that there have been two standards in terms of crossing racial boundaries in joking about stereotypes.

That wasn't comedy. That was a man who had done stand-up before and just basically had a meltdown. As Paul Rodriguez stated "You have to be prepared for that kind of stuff..."

If you call that comedy, I'll seriously have to rethink how civil I remain with you.
