Co-sign. Race is always a hair-trigger issue in this country. We walk a fine line when we expect a comedy, be it good or bad, to carry the bigger issue of racial pride (i.e. Barbershop2 -- Rosa Parks "controversy".) I don't know about White Chicks; it just didn't look funny to me so I don't plan to see it, but what do I know? I went to see Soulplane....
