Last night i watch his Hbo special and he was making fun of white people and saying mexicans own this Country now!
I used to like him until i watched it, but nobody says a thing, i wonder if a white person was up there saying the stuff he was saying but the other way around would he get booed and on every news station like Michael Richards.
Michael Richards was wrong for saying the N-word so i'm not defending him, i just mean if a white person was up there making fun of other race cultures and the way they act would the Media respond different?

I'm surprised that you are really presenting this as if it has merit. Watch stand up on Comedy Central. White people do make fun of other ethnicities and no one complains. Calling someone N and joking about race are not the same thing. Have you even considered how many times Quentin Tarentino (sp?) said the N word in Pulp Fiction? No one gave him a hard time over it. We are made fun of in movies all the time by whites, blacks, latinos, etc. Everyone is made fun of.
You're getting offended oveer Lopez making fun of whites and saying Mexicans own the country, but are you just as offended by white comedians who make fun of other races? Are you offended when comedians make fun of Muslims or middle easterners? If not, then you are the racist and not Lopez who makes fun of everyone. Let's be serious people...

That's like saying Lisa Lampanelli is racist. She says stuff that George Lopez wouldn't say. It's comedy. Michael Richards said that word because he was frustrated with the person (not a good choice) George Lopez talks about everyone.

I don't think he is racist. I've seen African American, Latin and even a few Asian stand up comics make fun of white people and other races of people. But they always make fun of their own races too. So as long as they aren't being down right cruel and racist, they are just making jokes.

I never thought Lopez was funny. One thing though, he did punch carlos Hal mencia in the nose for stealing his material so he can't be all bad.
