Only Mel Brooks could get away with Springtime for Hitler.

An inability to face reality. An assumption that right and wrong are relative concepts. It’s a learning disability, a product of seeing yourself as the center of the universe.

The hilarity of this is that there is only *one* ethnic group that is truly hypersensitive about racial humor, but liberals like to pretend that it is all groups.

This is especially true about “Asians”, a word that means almost nothing, as well as “Hispanics”, another word that means almost nothing. Even “Native Americans” are so diverse that lumping them together for almost anything makes little sense.

Not Conyers but dem rep Hank Johnson.

“Well, Washington Redskins is an offensive name. Dan Snyder really does need to change it.”

I find the “Washington” part offensive.

Conyers idiocy is more of an act than anything. He's actually a rather astute politician who gets his way by threatening to turn blacks against Obama.

The problem here is offended folks.

An offended person is a weak person.

“How about the DC Rednecks? Just as silly.”

How about the San Antonio Bandits?

Move the freaking team and then Washington to piss off.

Asians have just as much right to feel indignation and express outrage as anyone else in this country.

For years, Asians have just silently "taken it" as they are negatively stereotyped, denied admissions to prestigious universities, and publicly ridiculed.

Perhaps it is time a few more of them spoke up.

Asians don't want "special" treatment, they just want a little r-e-s-p-e-c-t. Is that too much to ask, or to give?

Aren’t the letters “DC” even more offensive?

Talk about double standards. Here's a current example:

Asian legislator sells guns to drug dealers. Immediate arrest!

Attorney General Eric Holder sells guns to drug dealers in Mexico using all the government resources at his disposal; he thumbs his nose at law-abiding citizens, keeps his position and continues put Americans in danger with his hypocritical words and actions.

If they’re upset over “ching chong ding dong” and the like, they should spend a couple of days in a bald white man’s shoes say, at a black or latino comedian’s show where they’ll hear every tame and vile epithet, innuendo and stereotype known to man. And these guys don’t get to complain and be ‘outraged and upset’.

Why not? Bald white guys have just as much right to speak out about racial stereotypes as anyone else.

Perhaps they should. That might level the playing field and expose the Left as the hypocrites they really are.

Why should one (or two) racial groups be treated as a "protected class" in a country that professes to see all people as equals?

Gran Torino was a good example of how “racist” terms weren’t necessarily a show of disrespect. Walt spoke to his friends the same way I talk to my cousin’s husband (The wop in the woodpile).

Why is their outrage over an off color joke?

Asians have no right to racial grievances in the US. Everyone needs to grow up and get a life.
