Must be winter as there are a lot of snow flakes out there. Now a joke involving a decapitated Trump head would have been fine.

“joked that being a gay, black man can’t be a choice because, “no one looks in the mirror and thinks, ‘this black thing is too easy, let me just add another thing to it,’” the report said.”

I find that amusing.

I wonder if they see how closed minded they are.

####ing stupid white kids.

And stupid asian kids that think they have something in common with other minority groups.

Jewish and Asian folks and white college students, too many, see themselves aligned with other minority groups, when I KNOW from first hand experience over and over and over that those minority groups will PUMMEL these groups given the chance.

Wake up.

“AAA members reportedly jumped on stage, stole Patel’s mic”

My Korean wife makes jokes all the time about ‘Asian drivers’.

Lighten up, Frances.

Come to think of it, Castro, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, Mao, didn’t have any stand up comics... for long.

Every last joke has something “offensive” in it, somewhere. If you want to ban all “offensive” jokes, you might as well just ban all jokes.

But that’s probably what the Left wants anyway: a drab, humorless, zombie society that can be easily led by an elite few.

One of my best buds is a Filipino dude. More, like really hard core rightwing than I am. He tells me that MOST of these Asian-American groups especially in L.A. are triggered, limp-wrist snowflakes who couldn’t take a non-pc joke.

Young liberals don’t have a sense of humor, period.

“Every last joke has something “offensive” in it, somewhere”

“Why do they call it Ovaltine? The jar is round. The cup is round....”

(Seinfeld refuses to perform at colleges because the students have no sense of humor.)

You’re right. It’s funny that no one ever points out disparities between whites and “asians” in income or health because that would show that whites are at a disadvantage and the presstitutes of our time will NEVER speak about that. Instead, whites are always compared to blacks and hispanics.

What the hell is it with them!! I would study SO HARD and the Asian kids would blow my grades away.

I’m a smart guy. Not a genius but WTH!?!?

It is what it is. Perhaps they have a higher average IQ.

I’m not gonna jump off of a bridge over it.

But make any other comparisons, and you’re right.

all HELL will break loose.

Funny thing is most asian kids think they have some kind of connection to other minority groups.

They don’t.

They don’t have any connection, but they like the benefits of being the Left’s “underdog”. MOST chinese families demand hard work and study from their kids, while MOST Americans let theirs sit on their asses. Besides that, “asian” is too broad a term-hardly all of them are smart.
