Actually, I don't think you would defend to the death their right to say it. I don't think anyone would die for free speech. That's why politicians think they can silence Americans under the guise of Hate speech legislation.

I wouldn't die for free speech either. The way I look at it. If people aren't smart enough to vote for politicians who respect the Constitution, then they will get what they deserve.

Don't tempt me like that, because I can do it. In fact if I think of too many I might put a thread up in humor "You might be Whitey if you....". Then you can just say that it takes one to know one.

The joke did not imply only black people wore baggy pants ! As for the word negro, the joke is 45 years old. That is what black people were called then. Besides, what is wrong with the word negro/negroid. I am a caucoloid, you can tell me a cauco joke if you wish. These words are not offensive, well not in the uk anyway. Is it so in the USA ?

I didn't know that black people in the UK were wearing baggy pants 45 years ago. (Thanks for the history lesson) If you do not find it offensive that is you. You asked if I found it offensive. I said yes and I also said that I cannot speak for every black person. THIS black person finds it offensive and I could care less what you call yourself or what black people were called before I was born. I FIND IT OFFENSIVE.

First of all, I implore anyone who isn't yet a racist to live a day in My shoes.  although I am an extremely liberal, mostly tolerant, rainbow-of-friends-having type of person, My current situation leaves Me no choice but to question why NOT to poke fun at true ignorance(and yes, the N word does cover anyone of that nature, although the majority in certain areas may be of a particular color).  I have had My clothes bleached, chicken bones repeatedly thrown in the yard for the dog to enjoy, the police called for doing laundry(despite many sleepless nights spent watching the walls rattle with bass), and O/our lives verbally threatened for no good reason, just to name a few.  Mr. Rock was genius to point out the obvious difference between civil and uncivilized, IMO, and anyone who enjoys a well thought-out joke against such a "low-expectation having MF'er" is not necessarily a racist, but a realist who laughs because they have probably experienced it firsthand.  Is it really equal opportunity when the balance is so skewed to favor so-called minorities?

The real problem is that we have politicians now who want to control what we say and how we think.

That't the problem with those types of jokes. YOU find it funny someone else find it offensive. I don't get to draw the line and neither do you. But we all should be aware that anytime we venture into that territory we are likely to offend SOMEBODY.

And I noticed no one really commented on the 9-11 joke. was it funny or was it offensive....... I suppose that would depend on who you ask. Like I said as a free speech advocate its your right to tell the joke and I would fight for that. PERSONALLY I take offense to it.

Personally, for me, it would be offensive if the intent was manifest.  Had a pensioner said it for example, I would talk it through and work out if it was more an age thing.  I would definately find it offensive if someone my age or younger told it to be funny.

Three guys are caught by a tribe of headhunters in deepest darkest africa:
A black guy
A middle eastern guy
a very white norwegian guy

The headhunters walk up to the black guy and start pinching and poking him all over, oohing and aahing---
the head man says, here is the deal, we are going to boil you alive eat and your heart.  Now, you have a fine ebony skin, very delicate---and your bone structure---
Well, we could use your bones and stretch your skin over them and make a canoe fit for a king, so in honor of this, we will give you one last request....
Give me a knife, the guy says...
Knife????? confused, they go OK
He slits his own throat, saving himself the agony of boiling alive.
They go up to the middle eastern guy and it is the same routine---pinching poking--

the head man says, here is the deal, we are going to boil you alive eat and your heart.  Now, you have a fine bronze skin, very delicate---and your bone structure---
Well, we could bone you and stretch your skin out and make a canoe fit for a prince, so in honor of this, we will give you one last request....
Give me a knife, the guy says...
Knife????? confused, they go OK
He slits his own throat, saving himself the agony of boiling alive.
They go up to the white guy
the head man says, here is the deal, we are going to boil you alive eat and your heart.  Now, you have a good thick skin, big boned --
Well, we could bone you and stretch your skin out and make a good bang around canoe for a hunter or something, so in honor of this, we will give you one last request....
Give me a fork, the guy says...
Fork????? really confused, they go OK
Repeatedly stabbing himself in the chest with the fork,  he cries out, 'FUCK YOU AND YOUR GODDAMN CANOES!!!!'

You are more than welcome to start a new thread on crazies with bombs. This one is about racists jokes.  And I'm sure we all have noticed that with each page it starts to get closer and closer to that edge we all wish to avoid. And apology accepted. I know that the joke was not told to offend but to prove a point.
