I once saw Dave Chappelle's show and he said that "homosexuals are new black people" do you agree with that?

well, they are both hatefully oppressed for no good reason, backed up by the Bible. i'd say they're similar, but not identical.

Although I am not male...I would like to offer my opinion....I have a few friends that are gay and they are anything but effeminate! I know that when they tell people they are gay not many others believe. This is too bad that in this day and age, and with the access to all these tools to educate, many, or should I say most, still have this stereo type of what a gay man "should be". This is just plan ignorant and narrow minded. But then these people still probably are too homophobic to discover the truth...and get to know some for who they really are...not based on a preconceived label.

I think, anybody who says the n word more than once is a racists. But when he said 50 years ago we would have hung you upside down and put a fork in your a**, that is really racist. That means that person had to actually think about all the bad things that have happened to black people 50 years ago and agree with it. Someone mentioned that slavery was not around 50 years ago, but it might as well have been. Some places blacks could not use the white bathrooms at those times.

I disagree with the person that said move to Europe, I mean racism is everywhere no matter what country no matter what ethnicity. Yes us black folks get it thrown in our face everyday but F*** em' life goes on you know, "what they eat don't make us sh**. like jay z said, ain't no love in the heart of the city, ain't no love in the heart of town"  Did you know in the history of television, in europe 2 weeks ago, a news station hired a black broadcaster. Now how long has the tv been around. We may have a few more oppurtinities, but not much. Just do what we all do, keep ya head up and try to maintain, Like Donny Hathaway says " Take it from me someday we'll ALL be FREE!"

This is what I once told a retired, racial, state trooper from Alabama, who stopped talking to me after he found out my daugher was black/white. I told him to go to any library and find me a time in history when American's fled from America to go elsewhere to live; to find me a time in history when any other race went to a country, stole the people from their homes, brought them to a country where they were treated less than dogs; women and girls raped brutally while their husbands, or fathers, or brothers were forced to watch; where men and boys were auctioned off like cattle. I asked him how he would feel if I sent someone to his house to do this to him and his family. He couldn't or wouldn't answer me, he has not to this day gone to the library to do  any research. So until people can do some research about what they hate, they need to stop hating it. And, this retired, racial state trooped from Alabama started talking to me again after a few weeks. And his racial jokes all but stopped. He still can't help but tell a few, but they are not in the same tone as they were before. I feel I must also tell you I was born and raised in Louisiana, I am 42, white female taught to believe that niggers are niggers and feed the dogs better. When I joined the Army, I was brought to the realization that everything I was taught to believe about the black people I grew up with was a lie. I was so humilliated and sick of myself when i realized what i had been part of that I wanted to die, but was too scared to die because how could I stand in front of God on judgement day? Anyway, I am glad to know that what I was taught was not the truth. Anyone seeking the truth should go do some research at any library. Its free. Be you any color of skin.

It's kind of racist against whites, but it's not like there aren't shows on Adult Swim that aren't racist, Family Guy has been accused of Neo-Nazism because of its racism, so I guess the Boondocks is kind of "standing up" for the African-Americans.  Good balance for Adult Swim if you're thinking in terms of Ying & Yang.

as an educated muliracial woman, i am offended by such comments.  i think comments like this are ignorant.\n\ndoes the person who says this mean to say that black is a behavior and that white is a behavior?  and if so, then that means that to be black is to be stupid and loud and to be white is to be intelligent and proper.\n\ndoes the person who says this mean to say that black people can't be smart, and that white people can't listen to rap if they want to?\n\ni think it's a disgusting comment and the people who say it have no imagination.  anyone can be whatever they want to be.

I absolutely love dave chappelle! I think he is intelligent, funny and outspoken...traits I value. He says what he needs to and gets his point across. And, when your audience is laughing, sometimes you can sneak a little lesson in when they're not looking!

People hate anything that is different and they are not educated on.  If you only know gay people as being sex addicts spreading disease then you probably wouldn't like them...or if you thought all black people were in gangs..you'd probably get nervous being around them...Being uneducated causes more hate in the world then I think anything else.

A lot of them do, indeed, fit those stereotypes, but they're just being who they are- take a look at comedian Ant, who is funny but as stereotypically queer as a three dollar bill.\n\nThere is of course the famous Ellen, who is always funny, but I personally haven't heard her do any stand-up on the actual issue of homosexuality.\n\nThere once was a guy featured on Comedy Central Presents- a very big white bald guy who was entirely hilarious and highly "straight-acting", I guess you'd say, and halfway through the show revealed he was gay and joked around about how hard it was to get a date when he looked like a scary basher, and other similar stuff.  He was fantastic, and for the life of me, I can't find him again online (and believe me, I've been searching).

I think it's really interesting that Elton John finds any answer to the problems of gays in banning the cultures of people who, if anything, are as ambivalent about homosexuality as the general populace.  He doesn't understand this because he's desperate to stereotype them in exactly the same way that he protests being stereotyped himself.  If he's trying to argue that gays are better suited to establish what's best for everybody, I'm afraid he missed the mark by a long shot.  It's one of the most intolerant and ignorant statements that I've heard in a long time.

I've met overwight homosexuals.\nI think you are mistaken on all counts.

for every ones information that doesn't think that this question doesn't fit this category, well sorry it does because this world is turning into another Sodom and Gomorrah look at all of these homosexual people coming out of the closet ( now i don't have anything against gay people i love everyone in there own way i just don't like their ways hey i have ways about myself i don like) but anyway to answer your question i think that he might have gave them another chance but i personally think that they would have screwed up again look at the people in the world now and how we are screwing up our lives.\n\n\nadded text:\n\ni was not trying to offend people it is justthat everyone is upset he asked this question in this section maybe he didn't  know that he asked this question inthis section but look at it like this it could be a sign to why it ended up in this section so peeps chill out dont get all serious with it

This show was a waste, of what would've been a social learning experience.\n\nThe white people are scripted and told what to say, just to add a shock value.\n\nThe black family are easily offended, no matter what anyone says (white or black) they can find offense in it.\n\nAnd the makeup, if people out there are really believing that the white family is black and the black family white, then they are fooled to easily.\n\nGood Riddance to this Show!

Personally, I agree with what Richards said. The "Filthy Chimps" remark wouldn't offend anyone if it weren't so close to the truth. And that fact is what all the uproar is about.

i was totally blown away!\ni saw a preview with an exclusive interview with him on the letterman show tonite and he "claims hes not racist."\n\nwhich is a huge pile of bull.\n\nhes a comedian and im sure hes taken criticism before, if he couldnt take someone telling him he wasnt funny then he shouldnt have become a comedian. hes an ignorant, washed up, stupid a s s man and he'll get what he deserves!

I watched a special on the life of Richard Pryor last night (Because I love him!)\n\nbut I noticed how all of the comedians kept saying things about white people that aren't true...  They generalized and made public assumptions that we are all; rich, white, socially oblivious, nerds, geeks, and hold down and abuse blacks, that we own everything, control everything and keep every good thing from them intentionally...  \n\nI am white...and I have never once in my life done any of the above.  \n\nNot all of us are rich, not all of us are even pure white, not all of us are socially oblivious and not all of us are any one thing really...\n\nSo my point is stating this here is;  \n\n"Look what you get when the pot calls the kettle black."  \n\na bunch of people being ignorant and feeling that they are somehow justified in doing the very same thing that they hate in return,  to feel better about the fact that a narrow minded margin of white people first did it to them... YEARS AGO!\n\nYou can't expect people to forget and move on from a tragedy if you keep constantly reminding them of it...\n\nLet's move on now... If they can let go that is and start to live above the influence of the past?  I honestly believe that it is manipulative and incendiary...\n\nI for one... will not forget how an innocent white man just happened to wander into down town LA during a riot and was almost beaten to death by 6 men with a brick for NOTHING!  He was on his way to WORK!  \n\nThat... is what comes of people not allowing the past to be the past and let it go!  RIOTS and hatred for those who are innocent... but guilty because they are the same color...
