There's a difference between telling a RACIALLY FUNNY JOKE & BEING RACIST

[The Tase]

Its a thin line between telling a racially provocative joke & being just blatantly racist.

Adam Corolla crossed the line. Its one thing to tell a creatively racially funny like a lot of comedians do, its another to just downright be racist & that's what Corolla did.

Chris Rock tells funny racist jokes.

Russell Peters tell funny racist jokes.

George Lopez tells funny racist jokes.

What adam corolla did was not comedy. It was basically the same thing that Michael Richards. Plain & simple.

As for the people who didnt find anything racist or funny about what corolla said, well that's because you are not filipino.

Im half black & half white. Ive heard white people say why do black people still complain about racism? Its 2010. We have a black president. Racism doesnt exist anymore.

How ignorant does that sound?

How would that white person know that racism against black people doesnt exist anymore?


She wouldnt know. She woldnt understand. She just wouldnt get it. Why? Because she's not black. Who are you tell a race what is offensive what isnt?

What if corolla went the other way & said that floyd mayweather is dumb just like all black people, all they do is go to jail, rob people, play sports, & eat chicken?

Would you be pissed if a asian, european,mexican person said that hey dont take it so seriously, its just a joke. He's just doing his job. I thought so. Dont excuse the vile, de****able act just because YOU werent offended by it.

Dont excuse the racist act for the sole purpose of entertainment shock value at the expense of a country with 100 million people. You didnt find it offensive or racist because it wasnt about you, your country, your culture, & way of life.

Try telling that to a person from the philippines.

What does this have to do with boxing? Go cry in the lounge or on a pillow.

Anyone catch the yankees /red sox game last night?

As a Filipino-American, I've laughed at almost every degrading joke that has been thrown at us.

I even make fun of my race from time to time: http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/sh...4&postcount=16

But Carolla is NOT funny. It would've been funnier if he wasn't so ignorant.

It was like 5-1 Yankees and my girl flipped to a movie. Can't believe Boston came back like that. I missed it.

There's also a difference between a racially funny joke and a racially unfunny joke.

Most of what Corolla said falls in the latter. I'm more offended by tasteless jokes being unfunny than it being tasteless.

There's a difference a pointless thread and a ****** one. This particular one is a toss up.

i dont know what im more pissed about, the racist joke? or the fact that people think adam corolla is funny.

There's a reason why everything he touches turns to ****. his movies bomb, his tv shows get cancelled, he used to be with kimmell but not anymore. Maybe that's why kimmell's show stunk so bad early on.

Its only classified as funny by the floyd fans because its bashing pacquiao & the philippines. If corolla was bashing floyd watch them denigrate everything about corolla.
