Typical racism

It's pretty bs when a so-called black comedy can disguise racism as something funny with all the "cracka" and "white boy" references...but if you tried to turn it around and white comedy with people using the terms "Ni**er" this or "black boy" that and you'd have the NAACP down on you or have Jesse Jackson preaching out against it. There is no sufficient apology which can be given to the African-American community for past atrocities, but the future attitude of the world will never change if they choose to bury themselves in stereotype. I am not a racist by any means and I condemn those who try to pass off this garbage as humor.
