Yes, I do find black face offensive. But at the same time, I know I was laughing when Martin played the white character on Martin. There have also been countless jokes on Comic View that were directed to other races. How many times have we seen a comedian point out the white people in the audience and make some sorta of joke about them being the only white people in the audience. Would you still find that funny, if Jerry Seinfeld did that it one of his stand-up routines? WE as Black people are too damn sensitive. WE can laugh at other people, but as soon as the tables turn on us it's not funny anymore. I think that I can make that argument for just about the entire population. WE have so many issues that we need to be focused on within our own communities. And yes, teenage pregnancy is a big one. We can all agree that racial jokes are not a good thing, I just wish we all thought about that when we are laughing at jokes about other races.
