What's the world coming to eh?

A CBC show declared that shooting a Black president in a White house is a lot easier than shooting a White president, and everyone is up in arms.

This is a damned funny joke OK.

People who get offended do not deserve to live.

Thaluikhain:
Hmmm...note that they are saying they are mocking racists.

What do you think, banned for 2 weeks?

Emperor Fadeaway:
I care not for their motives. It's a funny joke. Can't something just be funny anymore without it having to be ripped apart and analysed. What bullshit.

Thaluikhain:
I can see the argument for being careful with racist humour...but to ban mockery of racism because you have to acknowledge racism exists to do so is bathsit insane.

Emperor Fadeaway:
Spot on Davros.

They fear racism because they know exactly how much embedded racism exists in American society.

It's the elephant in the room.
