As long as you use discretion and don't mean the things you say, then yes we need to learn to laugh at ourselves. However you have to use common sense, and know what is and isn't appropriate. There comes a point when enough is enough.

you're welcome

its really not racist, people just give white people a hard time cause of whats happened in the past. I'm from many different cultures and honestly white people are the LEAST racist of any race. thats why white comedians = not so funny (exception dane cook) and black comedians are way more funny cause they can say whatever they feel like and not come across as racist.

racist jokes are what keep people from having a stick shoved up their ass all the time. jokes regardless of what they are can make you laugh. i'm jewish and i laugh at most jew jokes but not all. it is up to you to know where to draw the line

Telling racist jokes is not racist. Saying "I hate (insert race here)" is racist.

who cares if it is, i mean nobody cares if fat jokes are said, and it is still discrimination against a 'large' group of people, im not racist, but it shouldn't be the one discrimination act that can't be used if the others are fine.

make racist jokes all you want, doesn't mean you are a racist at all

as long as you do not think what you say the youre not racist. like someone said what you say is racist but its not who you are. there was a video of a guy on his blog talking about this but i cant find it. i think it was in this forum but im not sure. dont know if theres someone that knows what im talking about.

thats true, but thats pretty rare, that a person cannot work off there fat. Usually they'll still be big boned but thats a huge different from fat. Endomorphs can still be jacked if they want

its ok if your joking,   me and my white friends make jokes sometimes but we never really mean it. I have a ton of black friends, one of them would dominate everybody on this website in skateboarding and hes in fucking medicals school right now to boot.

I think everyone has racial prejudices to a degree. Telling an ethnic joke shouldn't put you in the same boat as David Duke or Malcom X. Jokes are pretty fucking harmless anyways.

It is the government holding blacks to a lower standard than whites. How in the fuck does lowering standards better them as a race? AA should be for people who grew up poor or some shit like that. Why do rich black kids need more help than anyone else?
