Or are you amused or offended by racial humor in general?
I think racial humor can be hillarious if gone about in the right way, and I think Dave does a good job of it. Every group has their quirks that make the fodder for some great jokes.
Blessed are they that can laugh at themselves, for they shall never stop being amused.

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!

I think that Dave Chappelle is freaking funny and I'm not offended by his material because I can related to him as a black person. Personally speaking, a lot of minority comedians/comediennes can related to the audience because they experience which in turn the audience can related to the comedians/comediennes because they have experience the same situation.
The problem with this country is that everybody is freaking out because they will get offended. The last time I remember is that we have the first amendment which grants us the right as citizens to voice our opinions without any repurcussions (most of the time there is with these stupid lawsuits). "You're too fat", "your white or black", etc. I personally sick of that and if you like Dave Chapelle then you like Carlos Mecina because he does the same thing as Dave Chapelle. Take care and enjoy yourselves.

I think that some of the content that he does is funny but then again some of it can be very disturbing. Also I think that it is sad that a great deal of these comedic shows are targeted toward the use of drugs which is sad in itself because we have an epidemic when it comes to the use of drugs.

That man is a comedic genius.
I am always in awe of him.
He can tell the worst joke, and make it funny and non offensive. Not many people can do that.

Neither, I don't laugh at him, but how can I be offended if I don't like what he says I can just shut him off.
