OK, here's an old one, Why is Sunday morning the best time to drive through NYC?
The Catholics are in church
The Protestants are still sleeping
The Chinese are making fortune cookies
The Jews are in Palm Beach
The Blacks are in jail
and the Puerto Ricans can't get their cars started

Tell me who’s offended by this one

Q: What is the difference between a slave, and a snow-tire?

A: The snow tire doesn't sing when you put chains on it.

(there really aren't any great snow-tire work songs)

And it ain't just racial, don't dare mock the feminist movement either, like this:
How many feminists does it take to change a light bulb?
4 one to change the bulb, one to write a book one the exploitation of the light socket, one to secretly wish she was the light socket, and one to secretly wish she was the light bulb. TAH DAH DUM!

Reminds me of my summer job in DC working with an all African-American crew (back then you could say black). I told them on the first day-You don’t call me honky and I won’t call you nigger. They all laughed, and we got along fine.
I don’t think that could happen today.

Also Don Imus. Over the years, he has made fun of just about every racial,ethnic and religious group imaginable. From the Southern Baptists getting him booted off some stations for his Rev. Billy Sol Hargis routines to the more recent “nappy headed hoes” incident. I lost a great deal of respect for the I-man when he groveled at the feet of al Sharpton begging him for forgiveness.

Not just the Irish. The Poles, too. We had so many working in one area of a previous employer that it was universally referred to as "The Ski Lodge." Guess who coined the term?

If you guessed the targets of the joke, then go to the head of the class. One of them (a good Catholic) told me this joke when John Paul was Pope:

After his first trip to America, he was interviewed as to how he liked it.

"All except two things," he said.

"The Polish jokes were rather insensitive and demeaning. Then there were the M&M's candies."

"The jokes, I can understand," said the interviewer. "But why the M&M's?"

"Too hard to peel", replied the Pontiff.

Jackie Chan got into trouble using the “N” word. Only Blacks can use it to each other.

In the modern USSA, the non-protected class is not allowed to offend the protected classes in any manner. Intended or not intended, the simple act of offending the protected is damn near a capital offense.

We should be able to make fun of ourselves, and others, with love in our hearts.

When laughter has been prohibited, wherever it may be, there is no joy in life.

Oh, yeah. I am a n-—— (just so it doesn’t get extinguished by the editors). We ALL are, to the government, and THEIR slaves, too!

Dear Abby,

I live in West Virginia with my parents, and four brothers.
I go to school, and usually keep my grades up.
I raise chickens, and help harvest in the fall.
I'm thirteen, and still a virgin.

Are my brothers gay?

Yours,
Darlene

Their idea of racial humor is to call white people “cracker” “honkie” “whitebread” etc., and then dig out their patented affectation of what a white man with a stick up his ass sounds like.

Then you just have people like Chris Rock, Dave Chappell, George Lopez, Carlos Mencia, and dozens of others who just plain hate white people. They all act like they were ghetto born and bread but nothing of the kind. Rich looters peddling hate.

I have to deal wiht a lot of “reverse-racism” on this job. And it is NOT challenged by the management, either.

One guy in particular is openly hostile to “those dirty white people” as he called a couple employees a few days ago. Also—he feels and says, loudly,”whites need to go to the back of the line” when any other race is needing to use the microwave ovens, etc—to the point he will REMOVE a white persons food from one MWV and put his own food in there—if it is a white person. This too is not challenged..but I WILL say something if he does it to ME!!
