If you're making fun of their race--- then it might be because their offended. Or it might just be that they have a crappy sense of humor. You have to make fun of every race-- including yours. Then it puts everyone at ease--- and make sure if you were of that race... it wouldn't be horribly offended. You need to be sure it will make anyone laugh.

There is a very delicate line between being humorous and being a flat-out racist. If you are making an observation about other cultures in the style of say, Carlos Mencia, and wording it correctly, then by all means, joke. But if you're making an observation that is not based on humor but worded to sound hateful, then shut up. Unfortunately, everyone who hears it has their own point of view and will interpret it differently.

I think you have to recognize that some people dont find putting down other races as funny. If the joke isnt funny, why tell it RIGHT?

Racist jokes are rude and offensive, there are so many other things that are funny that they aren't necessary.
You need to be of the race to make the joke even semi funny,
and it DOES help to be Carlos, dee dee dee.

I don;t think anyone is actually offended themselves, but are afraid others might be. Kind of like Chritmas displays at work.

i feel the same way, 'cause this little black kid told his mom he wanted to be just like Jesus, and she said "well, you can't be just like Him, because He walked on water and fed thousands of people with a basket of fish."....he replied, " i don't know about that momma, but i knows where's to get 20 pieces of fried chicken for 5 dollars!!!!"
