Well as long as you guy's are willing to except a double standard and just say "oh well thats the way it is", No one will ever have equality. As long as blacks and other race's are allowed to make fun of whites at will there will be people on the other side who view it as a double standard and "reverse racisim". Its ok in rap videos, on SNL, in mainstream tv and magazines, even on this site, but if someone drop a N bomb or makes a funny Obama/Ape picture you guy's cry fowl. You cant whine and cry racisim has to stop and then imply that because of one race's past it gives them a free ticket to make all the racist jokes they want about another.
P.S. I'm not tryin to imply Ransom is black either.
