I totally agree with what The Heretic says about making people laugh, anyway they can. If they make jokes about/or parody different races & cultures, who is standing there to censor them? I think that everyone is too damn sensitive about this stuff these days and should stop getting all militant about it. Comedians don't bother with stuff about skin color or physical characteristics, but they DO poke fun at the cultural habits that are different from "mainstream". And by laughing about it, it actually brings understanding about the differences out there & makes people a lot more tolerant, IMO. And Mr. Bukani (or is that Bukake? jk jk - don't go getting all offended) I think the male equivalent of 'cunt' may be 'prick', altho' it does not deliver the same impact as 'cunt' , for some reason, sounds way cruder. Now I'm gonna ask a question that may cause some OyVey tempers to flare, but..so be it, cause u can't please alla people alla time. Why is the Civil War constantly re-enacted, but WW2 isn't? It may sound sick & twisted, but I can find a lot of things to make fun of where the mannerisms of the Nazis & Hitler are concerned. If I was doing a stand-up comedy show, I WOULD warn people not to expect any leniency as far as my poking fun at different cultures. I would include my own amongst them and I would tell anyone in the audience that if they can't handle their own perception of the sensitivity of the material I utilize, then look around for the exits, and by all means, they should LET THE DOOR HIT THEM IN THE ASS. HARD!!
