Yeah, I don't think they have to make apologies to David Duke or Jared Taylor when they get caught either:)

I've never heard a white comedian make fun of a black person except for once, and he didn't get sued for it. also, what kinda jokes do white people make? give me an example. also, Chris rock and all those other comedians never went to far with their jokes, and if they did, they would have gotten in serious trouble. I mean, c'mon. since when can a black person get away with something nowadays? please exclude R. Kelly and that whole peeing thing. He doesn't count. lol, nice question by the way.

Really, which white people got sued for making a racist joke. I am unaware of this. Do you have names?

Good question..I'm sure white people get offended just the same as black people. But our society has portrayed racism as hate against minority groups not whites so it's not looked at in the same manner and that's not right.

Because there's a double standard. But if you stoop to their level, then you're just as bad.

I don't really know, but I'm always wondering about that.
