Hmm... wonder what a Gay ****** to Chris Rock would be then.. or a ######ed Gay ******! That'd be some serious inferior group of people!

oh, that makes sense.. z vs. s.. my *****z.. or my *****s.. Weird... why does it get censored the same..
He's talking about stupid black people. I don't understand what Gay has to do with it since I don't believe Chris Rock has ever stated he thinks homosexuals are inferior. He also has stated be believes that black people can make fun of black people, mexicans can make fun of mexicans, etc...
it's actually "az" vs. "ers". I think a lot of you being from Canada have different views on this as you might not have experienced true racism first or second hand...

Maybe not true racism between African-American and White people, but we definately see it everyday and experience it between Native-Americans and White people...unfortunately. So being Canadian might not have anything to do with experiencing racism on a general level.

I guess I should have clarified racism against black people. I know it exists in Canada, but not to the same extent. Partially due to Canada being a more tolerant society and partially due to not having a sizable amount of black people in your country.

Maybe that is part of it.. I don't know, I'm pretty niave maybe when it comes to some things like that.. I think I'm a nice guy, I like everybody.. If i make a joke about something everyone knows I'm kidding.. Whether it's about myself, my race, another race. etc. I'm not racist.. I even had a black dog!
