I meant racism, not discrimination.

Let me explain a bit. If a bunch of minorities were to sit on a stoop bashing white people, that's okay in our society, it seems.

Minority comedian bashes white folks... it's funny and he's not racist.

But if a white comedian does it, it isn't funny. If white folks gather and say bad things about minorities, they're racist pigs.

This is MY perception, mind you. Reverse discrimination? Racism? I don't know which you'd call it, but I see it in today's society.

Maybe I am wrong, but it's my perception of things today.

You're not alone ... although I don't believe it's only perception ... I believe it's a clear and discernable fact ...

correct.

i think of chris rock off the top of my head and he isn't even funny.

i don't remember richard pryor using that type of humor, ridiculing whites.

i think that black comedians that do that are appealing to the lowest common denominator in their audience.

chappelle does it but more with a sense of parody.

White Men Cant Jump...was ok. I think that title is funny. (Ya ever notice there most of the Olympic high jumpers are Lilly White Honkies? And I can use that term since I am one...)

White Chicks...was ok. Black guys in white face...hmmm

Neither of which I have any issue with whatsoever,

BUT...I do have an issue...

If I write a film intitled...Brotha Can't Swim? Regardless of what the films subject matter was. It could paint a very un-rascist loving all get a long message, but with that title? Im sure the Good Reverend would be giving me a call.

Oh, one more thing...

I was wondering why Adroomi responds to almost every thread EXCEPT for the one with his name?

Hmmm, must have had a hot date.

How about if I published a magazine called,"Ivory", or "White Entrepeneur?"

Probably, I could learn to spell it then.

He is sitting back reading all the responses, caluclating, composing a comprehensive response.

Either that or with the time difference he is sleeping, drinking and smoking, or entertaining JoyAnn. BTW, he has not posted any additional pics of her like he promised.

BET- Where is the White Entertainment Television? (WET)

NAACP- National Association for Advancement of Colored People? ..... Colored? I believe a white dude would get his arse kicked if he used "colored".

You could also say "Where is the National Assoc for Advancement of White People?"- No, I don't mean The Klan either.

I've bounced this off of the two or three African American/People of Color/Pigmently Enhanced folks that I call friends and I got the same answer...

-'Yeah, its all BS, but it is easier being white.'

Guess they have a point. Still doesn't make it right.

I'm an Equal Opportunity Offender. I like to have fun at everyone's expense- most often at my own.

Once you go maduro, you don't go back to EMS.

I like to poke fun at my black friends, and they like to make fun of me.

I guess I'm a racist.

I'll be sure to let them that this sort of humor is "bad" so we can stop being friends.

No one is telling you, you can't have a friend, no matter the color, silly man!

Just goes to show if we were of color this remark would not have happened:)

What is being said would have been ok. Ok, guys go underground to have your opinions! Do not have a say in anything because hey,! after all, your just white guys.
