After doing a segment on 'letting' minorities ask white people questions, then he says things like "I don't know why I live in the same country as you." Why is he allowed to say that?

Because he does not have the humor, wit, charisma or knowledge to be humorous in his own right.
He has to resort to sarcasm & racist comments to become noticed. Racist comments directed towards the white population goes over very well with non-white viewers - they see him as their "voice" in retaliation against those nasty, nasty white people!

The white race is the most powerful on Earth. It is evident on four continents and almost all of the first world nations. Therefore it is politically acceptable to criticize those on top..........IE why the president gets criticized for EVERYTHING that he does by the media.
At least he is coming out in the open and saying things about all races that everyone is just thinking anyway. If we were not so uptight about political correctness, I think this world would be a better place

i'm puzzled too. Are you implying that individuals of north united states of america are in basic terms white? it particularly is the implication on your sentence. utilising a racist be conscious in direction of your man or woman human beings is twofold. a million. It sould recommend you're taking the negativity out of it and utilising, notwithstanding it would not make it ok for each man or woman. 2. you're racist against your man or woman human beings. we are able to consistently ought to protest for equivalent freedom and freedom of speech. As minorities initiate equaling the white majority we are able to possibly see a shift. in spite of everything, think of approximately this, there is not any "caucasion" colleges, no "caucasion" charities, etc.

Quite a double standard isn't it? He is allowed to say it because his whole act is based on prejudice about everybody. That is his selling point. He never pretended he was right, fair, polite, etc.
Personally, I think, he is allowed to say it because now, everybody is afraid of taking him on, for the fear of being publicly humiliated by him.
Time will tell, but he won't be able to continue forever.

Aw crap, lighten up a little. I'm lily white and think Mencia is a hoot. He's just making up for lost time, white people have told jokes about every ethnicity (but especially blacks,mexicans,and poles) since the beginning of time.
He's allowed to say that because he lives in the US, where you can say what you damn please. Thank you for not griping about freedom.

FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!
He says things about all races, even his own.
He can do this because he has a right to do so.
I think he is funny, and I'm white.
I think you are just easily offended.
