But wait, there's more...
No - it is not "JUST A JOKE" because it was white racist type funny,
and that makes it a white racist joke, so that is not a plain and simple funny.
Some people say we need a "White History Month" and maybe that is the point that whites do not seem to see their own racism. Some of us do see it of course but we do need to educate our ignorant white population.
Have a "White Bigotry History Month" to explain to the whites what racism is and how they need to stop it - and maybe teach it to the whites all year long instead of only a couple months.
So you're calling me a racist/bigot BECAUSE I WANT EQUALITY? If one ethnic group can have targeted observances/events (e.g., Black History Month), why shouldn't others? :shrug: If one ethnic group can have scholarship funds for it's fellow group-goers, why shouldn't others? :shrug: If one ethnic group can have television stations that cater to it's "members" (e.g., Black Entertainment Television), why should others be afforded the same ... according to you, it's because of the color of their skin. And you call that equal and fair?
When a black person refers to his/her buddy as "my *****", it's okay. If a white person does it, it's racist, unacceptable, appalling, and worthy of the person being fired, threatened, and shunned by society. But if a black person refers to a white person as a "cracka", it's okay, and I'm not supposed to be offended.
When Imus made his "nappy headed hoes" comment, and Dog made his reference to his son's black girlfriend (don't remember the exact verbage he used), society was outraged.
But when Chris Rock does a skit telling blacks how not to get your ass kicked by a cop filled with racist euphemisms, or Dave Chappelle makes all sorts of black jokes on his show (e.g., the black white supremacist skit), again, no problem. But if a white comedian did it, all hell would break loose.
This -- my loser, non-child supporting, ignorant liberal -- is what we call a double standard. IF blacks really wanted to end racism, they'd stand up against their own people who are the very ones keeping it alive.
Stop blaming whites for every injustice on earth and calling us bigots for not agreeing with you. If you are so hell bent on making amends for something done by a select few's ancestors (none of which were mine, mind you), let 'em hang you on behalf of your white brothers and sisters as a sign of sacrifice. Go ahead; we'll let you be the "fall guy" for all our alleged evils.
I don't pay attention to "black history month" because it's mainly an observance (or excuse) to kiss ass to one group of people by hanging posters, staging marches, and reminding everyone of their hatred for the injustices against a group of people generations ago. When the news venues shows these events, they're all predominately black in terms of attendance. Why not invite whites to participate as a sign of how they/we are moving beyond the past and can get along in today's society? Wasn't that the whole point -- equality for all? How is continuing the segration of various ethnic groups at events equal? :shrug:
In my opinion, it keeps the wound from healing to keep bringing it up ... which is clearly what you're doing. And I see how well it served you with the election?
