Personally I don't find anything wrong with this guy dressing up as a white person. But I also did not see anything wrong with the white guys that dressed up as rappers for halloween either. But if you want everyone to be treated as equals and one group gets punished, I think the other group should be punished as well. If we don't do this, who will be the judge of who gets punished and who will not? Lets just treat everyone the same.

And for the person who said that this guy was not doing this to make fun of white people, how many white guys do you know that wear pink polo's with a shirt over their shoulder? He was obviously catering to a stereotype.

One last question. When I was in 6th grade, me and two of my friends were Diana Ross and the Supremes for a Lip Sync contest. We painted our skin black and wore black wigs and sequin dresses. Was that wrong? I did not think it was, but it might have offended someone. Was dressing as a rapper or a preppy white guy wrong? Who gets to decide? Just a thought.
